Wordpress Title CEO

I noticed while I was checking search results for this website that the blog name was included in every title page. This is a bad thing because it undermines the value of your article title for keyword search results. The problem was that every article was titled “Dick Logan >> Post Name” instead of just “Post Name”. This article explains how to fix that.

Wordpress Title CEO:

1. In your Wordpress control panel go to “Presentation“, and click the tab “Theme Editor“.

2. Select the header.php file by clicking on the word “Header” in the right menu.

3. In the header.php file, find the words “<title>” and “</title>” and replace everything between them with the following code:

<?php if (is_single() || is_page() || is_archive()) { wp_title(”,true); } else bloginfo(’name’); ?>

4. Don’t forget to save by hitting “Update File“.

Your blog post titles are now fully optimized for search engines. It may take a few days to weeks however for search engines to update the changes in their search results.
