Setting Your Blog

Go to your blog dashboard.

Basic: 

Just fill in Title & Description of your blog.
If you don't have meta tag, this description that will appear in search engine.

Just set your timezone

Search preferences: 

If you don't have meta tag in HTML, click

Meta tags -> enable search description -> fill in your meta tag desription. 

This will appear in search engine as description.
If you have meta tags in HTML just disable it. If not this will become duplicate meta tags.

Error and redirections -> Custom page not found:
