  1. Login to your blogger account
  2. From your Dashboard opt for Layout/ Design/Template
  3. Now choose Edit Html. You will see your template code there. In that template code find
    <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
    and replace it with
    <!-- Start: Changing the Blogger Title Tag -->
    <b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
    <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
    <b:else/>
    <title><data:blog.pageName/><b:if cond='data:blog.pageName'> - </b:if><data:blog.title/></title>
    </b:if>
    <!-- End: Changing the Blogger Title Tag ->
  4. Now Save the Template.
  5. After saving the template take a look at your blog post pages and your will notice the change in titles in your browser's title bar.

Search Engines do not re-index your site every day. So these changes won’t be reflected onto Google Search result pages until Google’s crawlers reach that page again.
