Yay! Blogger has finally added a blog.pageName tag so that you can have better SEO by placing your posts name before your blog name in your page titles (without any crazy hacks).
You can do something like this,
Code:
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> - YOUR BLOG NAME</title>
<b:else/>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "archive"'>
<title>Archives <data:blog.pageName/> - YOUR BLOGS NAME</title>
<meta CONTENT='Archives of YOUR BLOGS NAME.' name='Description'/>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
<meta CONTENT='YOUR DESCRIPTION META CONTENT' name='Description'/>
</b:if>
</b:if>
Replace the <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title> code with this code above, and change the names to your blog's names. You can add (and take away) whatever you like.
With blogger and 'item' is a single post, 'archive' are archive pages. In the example above it always falls through to the default Blog Name page title.
The example above places post pages title first, followed by the blog's name. It also places different meta content description tags on the different types of pages.
@Chatmaster: is it better to have no description meta content, or lots of duplicate description meta content across pages?
