How to remove "Blog Archive" from your Wordpress post title
The Title section in Header.php contains the codes which displays your Wordpress title. This is important because search engine listings will display your post title followed by a description of your post. I began to notice that all of my listings had the words Blog Archive in them which was unneccesary and caused part of the titles displayed to be cut off.
To remove the words Blog Archive, do this:
- Log into your self hosted Wordpress blog and click Presentation
- Click on Theme Editor
- On the right handside of your browser window, select Header from the list of theme files
- Look for this line of code just a few lines from the top.<title><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
- Remove this section => <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?>
The remaining portion should look like this:
<title><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
- Click Update File to save the file.
How to correctly check niche market profitability in Google
One of the ways affiliate marketers or internet marketers determine the profitability of a new niche market is by doing a search on Google and by looking at the number of sponsored ads appearing. The less sponsored ads there are, the less pay per click competition there is. Hence, you can get your ads up on the first page of Google for a lower cost and likely to reach more of your target niche market.
However, newbies may not realise that just because you use Google.com (your target market in the US) instead of Google.com.sg (country where you live, eg. Singapore), it doesn’t mean that the sponsored results appearing are those for the US market. This is because, when you browse to Google.com, your computer IP address is also sent to Google and from that IP, Google knows where in the world you live. Google then displays only the relevant sponsored ad results for your country. One of the ways to get around this is to use a dedicated keyword research tool like Keywords Analyzer which allows you to specify which country specific Google search engine you want to use. When you perform a keyword search using the tool, only the results for that country are returned. With this, you can quickly determine the niche market profitably for any country where Google has a dedicated search engine datacentre.
