How to Change a Post Title Background Color on a Google Blog

http://smallbusiness.chron.com/change-post-title-background-color-google-blog-51861.html

Blogger, a popular and free blogging platform offered by Google, gives you the ability to customize the colors and widgets on your business blog. A few minor tweaks to your blog can change the public face of your company. The title color and background are especially important, since this is usually the first thing that prospective clients browsing your blog will see. The background color for your post titles can make a difference, too, although it's not as simple to change.
Step 1Log in to your business blog on Blogger.
Step 2Click "Template" on your Blogger dashboard.
Step 3Click the "Customize" button under the "Live on Blog" preview.
Step 4Click "Advanced" in the upper left pane and scroll down to "Add CSS."
Step 5Click on "Add CSS." An input window will open to the right. If you are using a classic template, type:
h3.post-title { background-color: your color here; }
For a dynamic template, type:
div.article-header { background-color: your color here; }
Replace "your color here" with either the name of a color, HTML notation such as "#000000" or RGB color such as "rgb(0,0,0)". Note that "transparent" (without the quotes) works as a color, too.
Your finished changes should look similar to the following:
h3.post-title { background-color:#808080; }
or
div.article-header { background-color:transparent; }
