[CommercePundit]

I'm managing my blog on Blogger platform. I have published 7 blog posts to my patio umbrellas blog.

Today, I have published following blog post to my blog.

http://vistastores.blogspot.com/2012/03/offset-umbrellas-awesome-choice-for.html

When I see page title so it is shows me as follow.

Patio Umbrellas Blog: Offset Umbrellas: Awesome choice for good quality time outside!

I want to remove Patio Umbrellas Blog: segment from each blog posts' page title.

I can't find out Meta description in my blog posts. So, How can I make it happen?

Here are a few guides on how you can do it:

Unfortunately Blogger doesn't provide the tools to do it using any specific interface, so you will have to simply paste the tags into the html.

Thanks for your reply. I have read blog posts which were suggested by you. I don't want to add these much Meta to my blog.

You can find out current code which is available for Meta.

<b:include data="blog" name="all-head-content"><title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title></b:include>

Can you give me some idea about this code? Where I need to make changes?

The first meta tag refers to the Internet Explorer - you can read about it a bit more here:

The other meta tags are referring to the size of the view port - based on the condition whether the device that is used to preview the page is a mobile device or not.

You can also see the meta title and description tags:

<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>

Meta description is wrapped with the conditional statement.

My suggestion would be to remove these lines:

<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>

And place your standard meta title and description above:

Hopefully this should solve your problem.
