Adding Categories to Your Blogger Blog

Everybody might have their different meaning and own definition of the word “category” in a blogger terms, but for me I’d like to define mine in this manner: A category helps keep ones blog in order and makes a blog easy to navigate.

  to create a new tag.

Note that On this tutorial, we are assuming that you already know what a tag is and how to use them

If you are creating an entertainment category you will need to include “entertainment” in your tag. If you have already set a tag for your post, now go to “page” settings and click on “New page” and choose “web address”.

Now on the page title, give it the name that you like. If its Entertainment category you are building just put in “Entertainment” and for the “web address (url)”, put in the tag you added to the selected post. For example; if you tag your post with entertainment, the tag url should look like http://yourdomain.com/search/label/Entertainment/ right? So put the address in the web address space and click save.

Now you have successfully created a category. You can use this method to create more categories for your blog.

There are different ways and method of creating a category for your blog but I just laid down the simplest way to go about it.

You can now create your own category with this tip and make your reader find more reasons to be at your site for a longer hour.
