Meta codes optimization for seo in blogger Latest Tricks

I have written many articles about seo in my blog and all of them works. As seo is very important for blog and website therefore a successful blogger is that who focuses on his blog's seo. Seo includes links optimization, images optimization, post title optimization, tags optimization, post description etc. One important thing for seo is meta codes in blog. With codes you can tell robots about your blog and according to this info they index your blog for example if you want robots to follow and index you blog posts you have to add a meta code for that. 

So it is also very important for seo. You can find meta codes for blogger in other blogs and sites but they are without explanation, you won't understand how does these codes work. Here in this post I will explain function of each code along with how to add your content keywords,info,data etc. So lets begin, I am starting from meta title as it is the first code, but before that I will tell you where to add the meta codes:

Adding meta codes in blogger:

As we know that all codes of a blog are stored in its templates e.g gadgets codes, ad codes, customization codes so the meta tags are also added in blog template. To add meta code firstgo to your blog, click on template, edit Html, in the Html page click anywhere the Html,search for <head> and paste all meta codes just below it.

Meta title: 
Meta title tells robots and crawlers about title of your blog, you can increase your blog traffic by adding keywords of your content in this code. Copy the below code and follow above paragraph to add it in your blog:


<meta content='Write here' name='title'/>

Replace Write here with the title of your blog, try to add keywords of your content so that it help search engines to show results and may be your blog also appear due to keywords in title for example: For 101Helper I have written title 101Helper | Blogger tips,tricks,widgets,tutorials,seo as it explains my blog so now if someone search for blogger seo or blogger tips and tricks my blog will appear in search results.

Meta description:
Meta description helps you to give a summery of your blog's content to search engines, if your blog doesn't have a meta description then there is no chance for your blog to appear in searchresults as it also helps in appearing blogs or sites in search results because when
a search is made in Google it highlights some words either in title or in description so its also helpful to gain more traffic. Replace Write here with your blog's description try to add keywords in this code to get more traffic:

<meta content='Write here' name='description'/>


For example: My blog's description is 101Helper.blogspot.com provides you blogger tips, tricks, seo tips, blogging, tutorials, gadgets and widgets for blogger so when someonesearches for seo tips, blogging tutorials or any other keyword in my description my blog will be shown in results, see a demo below:

Meta Keywords:

Meta keywords code holds your content's keywords. It helps search engines to crawl your posts as search engines encounters keywords in a blog. You can add meta code for keywords by copying below code, replace write your keywords here with your contents keywords. Don't add alot of keywords, try to use high value keywords 30-34 keywords are recommended. For example if your blog is about seo then use seo, seo tips, seo latest tips, seo tips for blogs, seo tips 100% working, Google seo tips etc.


<meta content='Write your keywords here.' name='keywords'/>


Meta Language:

It informs robots about your blog language. If your blog language then copy the below code and paste it directly but if your blog has other languages also such as Portuguese, russian, french etc the use come(,) to separate them. Meta code for language is given below:


<meta content='English' name='Language'/>


Meta Author:

It tells robots and crawlers about blog author or website author. Replace 101Helper with your own author name:


<meta content='101Helper' name='Author'/>


Meta Robots:

There are two different codes for robots. One code tells robots that they are allowed to crawl your pages and the other tells them to index and follow your posts. In first code I have written all which means that all robots(Google, bing, yahoo etc) are allowed to crawl pages and in the second code I have indicated to index and follow my blog. Copy the codes below to help robots crawl, index and follow your blog:


<meta content='all' name='robots'/>
<meta content='index, follow' name='robots'/>


Meta Audience:
It indicates that what should be the age of people who can surf on your blog. I have written all but if your blog has a content for only +18 or +19 you can add it in the code:


<meta content='all' name='audience'/>

Final words:
You can find more meta codes on the internet but the most important are mentioned above. I hope this post is helpful to you, if you like this post take a second to share it with others. If you have any question ask me in comments. Follow and subscribe for latest news about seo.

Blog title optimization for seo in blogger Latest Post Tricks

Seo(search engine optimization) is a basic and important thing for a blog or website's traffic. Seo is of two types one is on-page seo and another is off-page seo, off-page seo includes many thing among which one is blog title optimization. While creating a blog there are many thing to take care of such as category, description, meta tags etc but a very important thing is having a good title. Good title means a title which describes your blog category properly.

Let say if you have a blog about fashion then what would be the best title for it? I think it would be Fashion, style, latest fashion clothes or something like New fashion for boys and girls, fashion 2014 etc. But it is not just about having a good title another thing comes whena post is created, so when a post is opened it will display only post title and not represent you blog title which is not good for seo. So for displaying blog title beside post title you will use a separator between post title and blog title. It is a good way to optimize post titles that's why I have created a post about adding a separator between post and blog title before. But adding a separator between blog and post title is not useful for all blog specially if a blog has a long title such as mine, my blog title is 101Helper | Blogger tips,tricks,widgets,tutorials,seo but when a post is opened and browser tab is hovered it represents only 101Helper so how did I do it and why?






The answer is because some search engines specially Google and Bing doesn't show full title, so a blog having long title is not optimized by just adding a separator. For example if i am searching for All in one social sharing buttons for blogger or another post on Google then it will show
results as shown in below image:

In above image the results shown by Google is just name of the post and after separator there is only 101Helper... similar to Google bing also shows only 101Helper after post title so if you have a blog having long title then you have to optimize it for better seo. In above example I have used a post having small title, what would happen if I search for a long title? such as Tips to increase blog traffic and generate more than 600 page-views/day Google will show only Tips to increase blog traffic and generate more than 600... therefore I have to optimize my blog title in such a way that after post title it show only 101Helper so if you have a blog having long title or you want post title alone or want your post titles to be followed by blog title then you are at right place. In this post I will tell you how to optimizeyour blog title in different ways according to your needs.


How to optimize blog title for seo in blogger?
When its about optimizing title of either post or blog, we need to edit template. But before that download a backup of your blog so that if something goes wrong you could backup it. To optimize your blog title follow below mentioned steps:

Step 1: Go to blogger dashboard and click on template.


Step 2: On the template page click on Edit Html.

Step 3: Click anywhere in the Html and search for <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title> by using Ctrl+F on your keyboard.

Step 4: Replace it with the anyone of below codes which you prefer for your blog:


Post title followed by blog title:

If you want your post titles to be followed by blog title or your blog title includes relevant keywords of your content and you want to show your post titles along with blog title then replace the above code with code shown below:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
</b:if>


In the above code green colored | is a separator between blog and post title, you can use another symbol instead of it. I have previously created a detailed post about how to add a separator between your blog and post title for seo you can read it here if you don't understand it.


Post title followed by Short blog title: 

As in the introduction of this post I said that some search engines specially Google and Bing doesn't show full title of a blog or site, so if you have a long blog title then you have to reduce it if you want to show your blog title with your post title in search results. If you don't reduce then in search results your post title will be something like 101Helper | Blogger tips,tricks,widgets,tutorials,seo.... so your post title will be displayed but your blog title will be kept hidden in dots as shown in above image. To reduce your blog title and to show name of your blog only after separator replace the above code with below code:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> | Your blog title<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
</b:if>

In the above code replace Your blog title with your blog name and beside it separator is also added in this code you can use other symbols instead of it. When you replace Your blog titlewith your blog name then when browser tab is hovered it will show post title, a separator and blog name which you type in place of Your blog title, so your long blog title is reduced and now its seo friendly.

Post titles only:
If you want to strengthen your post titles keyword density and want only post titles alone without a blog title then use below code:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'><title><data:blog.pageName/></title><b:else/><title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title></b:if>

After using this code when you will open a post and hover browser tab it will show only post title.

Blog title before post titles:




It is similar to the second one but it has a little difference, by using the second code your post titles will be followed by blog title but this code will show your blog title first and the post title after that. So if your blog title is searched on the web all posts will be shown in results as all of the post titles will have your blog title. Why does the second code doesn'tshow all posts in search results? its because some posts have long titles so search enginesshow your post title but hide blog titles in dots. Use this code only if you are sure that people use to search your blog name to reach your blog otherwise it may result in low traffic.


<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title>Your blog title | <data:blog.pageName/><b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
</b:if>



You can see that in second code Your blog title was in last so it showed your blog title in last but now it is first so it will show your blog title first. Just replace Your blog title with your blog name and you are done!

Step 5: After replacing anyone of the above code click on save template and you are done!
Final words:

Title optimization is a good step to make your blog seo friendly, but with title there are so many other things which also need to be optimized such as links, meta tags, robot tags, 404 page not found redirection etc. Therefore I have created a post which is all in one seo packfor blogger you can fully optimize your blog by reading that post.
