This method is suitable if you have a few key posts less than 20 posts of your blogger blog. More describe that I am investigating this procedure on 60 posts of my blogger blog, if I have succeeded would tell you later about this. Include the following code in your Blogger template after the home page code you have already entered in your Blogger template.

        <b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://url of your post"'>
<meta content='keywords to your post' name='keywords'/>
    <meta content= 'description of your post' name='description'/>
      </b:if>

2.    In view of the above now I am giving an example you will see that the optimized Meta tags for the individual post comes after the home page code look the procedure is given below:

   <b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
       <meta content='Place your blog description here' name='description'/>

   name='keywords'/>
       </b:if>
       <b:if cond='data:blog.url == "http://url of your post"'>
   <meta content='keywords to your post' name='keywords'/>
   <meta content= description of your post' name='description'/>

3.    In this procedure select description and keywords from your post and add your post URL, keywords and description in red characters of the above code then click on the “Save Template” button and then check your Blogger Blog on Meta Tag Analyzer tool.
