Duplicate Title Tags in Blogger

[mikeclover]

I currently use blogger witht the FTP servcie so when I put new content it saves it under my site, as opposed under blogger.com. The problem I am having is the title tag is duplicated under every post. How can I have the title tag just use the title of the article when uploading it ? I think I am getting penalized as it being duplicate content when its not. HELP , i need the code to fix this.

Hi Mike

Sounds like this is a code level issue with your blogging platform...

As a guess, you should look into the source for the code that requests the page title to see if it has been duplicated..

Here is the code to fix it. I found it online. If you dont do this google will penalize you for dupliate title tags.

<br /><mainpage><title><$BlogTitle$></title></mainpage><br /><ArchivePage><title><$BlogPageTitle$> Archive</title></ArchivePage><br /><itempage><title><blogger><$BlogItemTitle$></blogger> - <$BlogTitle$></title></itempage><br /><MainPage><meta name=”description” content=”<$BlogTitle$> of <$BlogDescription$>” /></MainPage><br /><ArchivePage><meta name=”description” content=”<$BlogPageTitle$> Archive, <$BlogDescription$>” /></ArchivePage><br /><ItemPage><meta name=”description” content=”<Blogger><$BlogItemTitle$></Blogger> - <$BlogTitle$>” /></ItemPage><br /><meta name=”keywords” content=”<ItemPage> <Blogger><$BlogItemTitle$></Blogger>,</ItemPage> <ArchivePage><Blogger><$BlogItemTitle$>, </Blogger></ArchivePage><$BlogTitle$>” /><br />
