Best SEO Blogger TricksWell, guys! You might know already that Search Engine Optimization is the backbone of your blog. You're all over success and popularity depends on upon it.
If you did a perfect SEO of your blog, you would probably see great results out coming within in few time. But, if you don’t have that the results will be negative. So, I have prepared a list of all the necessary steps you must implement in your blog to make its SEO perfect.
Sometimes people new to the blogging world also waste their huge amount of hiring SEO experts for their blogs, but I am not in this favor because Search Engine Optimization of your blog is not such a difficult job and you can do it easily on your own.
Best SEO Blogger Tricks
1. Use Suitable, Relevant and Attractive Post Title
Yes, that’s true, you should use a relevant, suitable and attractive title for your post. Because as it's human nature that whenever a person searches something and your post appears in it if your post title is attractive the searcher will quickly land on your blog. So, just see the below tips to make your post titles attractive.
- Use Targeted Keywords in your post title.
- Don’t make it too long or too short, just make it that way so the people can understand it.
- Don’t use complex wording in titles because usually people search using common words and in this way, your post will not appear
- Never use more than 65 characters in your post title.
Use targeted keywords in your article as it is considered an important part of the on-page SEO, but keep in mind don’t use it too much because it will come in the criteria of Black Hat SEO then. Ideal keyword density, used in an article is about 2-5%.
3. Show Post Title First In Search Engines
By default in blogger templates, the blog title is displayed first in the search engine, and the post title is displayed after it. This should not happen because if your blog title is long when people will search something related to your blog niche, your blog posts will also appear but in search, your blog title will be visible only due to which the visitors will not visit your blog. So, for correcting this thing we have had to add a piece of coding in blogger template.
Go to Blogger Dashboard >> Template >> Edit HTML.
Search for <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
Replace the above code with below codes.
<b:if cond=’data:blog.pageType == "index"’> <title><data:blog.title/></title> <b:else/> <title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title> </b:if>
4. Turn on H2 Heading Tag For Post Title
Headings are the most important HTML tags. Usually, we use H1 tag for blog’s post and H2 for the post titles, but by default in blogger templates, blogger uses H3 for post title so we must promote post titles from H3 to H2. See the trick number three in the following link to turn on H2 heading tag for post title.
5. Optimize Labels Links In Blogger
Labels are very precious items in blogger as we can use them as separate categories. But these labels sometimes provide difficulty for the search engine because search engine crawlers take these labels as content pages and index them. So, we have to tell the crawlers that they are not allowed for indexing so that it shouldn’t create the duplicate content issue.
Go to Blogger Dashboard >> Template >> Edit HTML.
Search for <a expr:href=’data:label.url’
Replace the above code with the below code
Save Template!
<a expr:href=’data:label.url’ rel=’tag’
6. Optimize Comment Content Links
Do you receive the huge amount of comments daily? Then you might have noticed that some commentator’s insert the outgoing and irrelevant links in the comments which are not good for the proper SEO. So, we’ve to insert the no-follow attribute for it which will tell the search engine’s crawler to do not follow it.
Go to Blogger Dashboard >> Template >> Edit HTML.
Search for expr:href=’data:post.createLinkUrl’
Replace the above code with this following.
Save it.
<a rel=”archives” class=’post-count-link’ expr:href=’data:i.url’>7. Enable Search Description and Custom Robots Header Tags

When writing a post, you will see a box named search description on the right sidebar, where you can write a search description for the post you are going to write.
8. Add a Custom Robots.txt File

Otherwise, it will be causing trouble for you. By this option, you can tell the search bots, which part of your blog should be indexed and which should be not. Just follow the below simple steps
