Now lets get right into where to start optimising your blogspot blog.I have listed out the main points while starting out optimising your blog which are as follows:
Optimize homepage
All of it begins with the homepage.Its the first impression that everyone (obviously) and google crawlers sees.So its the most fundamental page to focus on.
