What i have is the same code except that instead of blog.title i have blog.pageTitle

Jack, I my titles already change on each page. Do I need to install this?

I’m with KURT, what does this do exactly? A little explanation would really help.

Search Engine Optimization or SEO. It would help you get better on SERPs or Search Engine Ranking Pages. Meaning, you could get free traffic from search engines if people type your keywords on search engines.

Then whats the difference between Adding Meta Tags and swapping blog title…

Can you add this to the existing hack and remove the “-” you may have used as your blog title?

thanks

Thanks jack, got it done!
for those that are having problem with the xml, d/l the txt file and copy from there, instead of copying directly from this website.

hi

Any simple workaround, or i should do it all again?

[...] You also get already swap title [...]

I just confused aout how to swap title of Blogger classic html template..can you tell me please..

just wanted to thank you for this tip. I wrote a post on my blog about how to better improve Blogger’s SEO and I included your link in my post. Please check out my blog if you have a chance. Thanks.

This works, but SEO wise it removes the title data from the pages.

For instance when using http://www.submitexpress.com/analyzer/

if you look at the pages with this swap you will see there is no title tag.

Is there a way to edit the code to fix this?

Thanks,

Mike

[...] Swap Blog Title

This is exactly what I am looking for, however I don’t seem to have that code anywhere in my template. I believe I am using an old (classic) template. Any advice on how to implement something similar?

Hello Jack!
I changed the code as shown in your post, but it doesn’t work for me (I still have the blog title before). Actually, I was already using the following code:






~

And it worked really great, and a couple of weeks ago it stopped working, and I have no idea why!! Would you mind helping me with that? I guess there’s something which makes both codes not work…

Thank you so much in advance!

nice hack !! but what if i need blog title fist then post title ??

I used this tip, but suddenly today this error happens whenever I save my blog template, even if I have not changed it:

Your template is invalid because the tag ‘b:section’ appears inside of the tag ‘head’.

Any ideas?

Add me to this list! any help?

I have the same problem they changed something, we need to invent new hack)

Hi im also getting this error
Your template is invalid because the tag

that is my problem too… plss helm me with this

this hack used to work well, but now blogger returns me that I con’t enter “b:section” in the head tag.

I was experimenting with how to work around this, and made my posts unreachable. (Got a “not found” error.) Then of course I couldn’t revert the changes, because the template — which I had downloaded — couldn’t be saved.

I fixed it by moving the opening ‘head’ tag after the closing ‘if’ tag of this title hack. Now the meta tags and the title tag appear in the html before the opening head tag. This displays properly in Firefox, but I haven’t tested it yet on any other browsers. I also have no idea what it will do in search engines.

I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone, but if you break your blog, this might get it back.

Thanks, Drew Kime,
I have just tested in IE 7 and it works well too.
But I don’t know what about the search engine.

Fortunately I didn’t change my blog I just can’t save it because of this, but if I want to make some change, live the advertising, in the future I don’t know what I’ll have to do yet.

This needs to be inside the head otherwise it will not work.
The problem is that Blogger is since some days ago not accepting b: sections within the header which after all makes complete sense… Unfortunately this is completely destroying the post title optimisation hack. There’s people trying to fix it through scripts but this does not have any impact on search engines. We’ll have to wait until Blogger comes up with something. It would be great if they give us the chance to tell the search engines how to read our posts…

I think search engine is not depending on how your title is displayed. As long as your keywords are intact in your title..
What is important is that your title is not too long. cause some Search Engines are cutting it off, because of number of character limit just like the Meta description.. some SE has a 150 limit.

Correct me if I’m wrong…

This code doesn’t work and when i try to add it, blogger gives “Your template is invalid because the tag ‘b:section’ appears inside of the tag ‘head’.” error.

Hi Jack,
I tried to implement swap title tag widget on my blogspot blog. What I got is the following error:
“Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.
XML error message: Open quote is expected for attribute “{1}” associated with an element type “cond”.”
I asked you regarding this earlier also through contact form but you didn’t gave nay reply. I hope you will reply this time.
thanks

Hi Jack,
I’m glad to find your great hack here. I recently created a blog and followed your instructions to replace the tag with your new codes. But it seemed to be not working for my template. When I saved the template,I’ve got the following message:

Please correct the error below, and submit your template again.
Your template is invalid because the tag ‘b:section’ appears inside of the tag ‘head’.

Can you help me ?

Hey Guys, the code doesn’t work anymore with the latest update from Blogger. As what BAS commented, I guess we have to wait for the fix from Blogger?

Works like charm when you put the code above the head element!

This massage has been given as i changed my blog

you thr to see this

I can’t find , but I tried to replace the code you given above with . It did’t work and I couldn’t save the template! What can I do? Thanks in advance

Superb blog , thanks for making me to understand how to add meta tags, description to my blogs

Thanks

I want to be sure I’m understanding you correctly.

is what my html says.

Do I get rid of the parts as well? I realize you said ‘replace’. Did you mean get rid of the whole line, and replace with the code above?

Also would http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=en&complete=1 be a good source to start working on the meta tag choices? I didn’t think you could do meta for blogger, and never really gave it much thought! LOL! I figure between my analylics, and this tool (link) it maybe a good place to start for keywords for my blog.

Thank you for your time!

I never thought about placing ads, etc on my blog before, and my friends just screamed for me to do this! LOL Might as well do other things as well to increase my knowledge.
