Changing Your Title To Reflect Your Blog Title

Filed under Blog Design.

Ever wonder how each website gets their title in the top left of your browser? For example, I set mine to: “Brad Blogging - Daily Blog Tips For The Masses” as thats what I believe this blog helps its readers achieve. I often give tips that you can’t find anywhere else.

Anyhow, enough about me and lets get to the part where you change your title to whatever you would like to say about your blog. If you would kindly log into your wordpress administration area and select “Presentation” (Wordpress 2.3.3 and Under - You Should Really Update Your CMS) or “Design” (Wordpress 2.5).

Then select your theme and locate your “Header.php” file so we can make the changes to your blog.

Simply now look for the <title> </title> tags in your header file and change the words to whatever you like. Alternatively, you could download the “All In One SEO” plugin and change it through that, but this method is faster than installing a plugin. (Although, It could help you be better friends with Google and I do recommend that you download and install it.)

Congratulations, you’ve just changed your title. Don’t forget to include keywords that your blog focuses on for SEO rankings!!

I just changed my blog title to “Blogging Tips And Tricks” and I’m already 20th in position for that term on Google. Wooh.

Alternatively, you can also use the Platinum SEO plugin.

Brad, Editing theme files can be scary for newbies. I recommend looking for themes that offer “theme options” for altering the title tags, inserting CSS, and modifying SEO details (the free mandigo theme is a good example).
