How To Add Meta Tags To Your Blogger Blog

We all want our blog posts to be read by as many people as possible, indeed what would be the point otherwise!! The first step is to optimise your blog, and in this example it will relate to your Blogger account. Your standard template will not include meta tags, so you will need to manually add them to achieve a higher ranking, the process is simple just follow the steps below...



1. First login to your Blogger.com account.

2. Then click on ‘Layout’ and select ‘Edit HTML’ tab.






3. Now search for the line of code directly above the boxed selection below (it will be about 9 rows down from the top). Then simply add the code in the boxed section directly beneath it.

Now just change the capitalized letters with your own text. ‘Keywords’ meta tag can have any number of keywords.

Analyzing Meta Tags


Adding meta tags to your website/blog is not enough it is important that you then analyse their effectiveness. So here's the cool bit, you can use this free tool to get a report on how your meta tags rank and then optimise if necessary, you should be aiming for a score of +90%. It is called SEOCENTRO. It does not require you to register. Just fill your website URL and anti-spam code and you will be produced with a ‘Meta Tag Analysis Report‘ (see the image below).

There you have it!
