How to create news categories on blogger with labels
On Blogger, you can create news categories using labels. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you do so:
Step 1: Create a label
- Log in to your Blogger account and go to your blog's dashboard.
- Click on the "Settings" icon (looks like a gear) and select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
- Scroll down to the "Posts and comments" section and click on "Labels".
- Click on the "New label" button.
- Enter the name of your category (e.g., "Technology", "Sports", "Entertainment", etc.).
- Click "Save" to create the label.
Step 2: Apply the label to your posts
- Go to the post you want to categorize and click on the "Edit" button.
- Scroll down to the "Labels" section and click on the "Add new label" button.
- Select the label you created in Step 1 from the dropdown menu.
- Click "Save" to apply the label to the post.
Step 3: View your categories
- Go to your blog's homepage and click on the "View blog" button.
- Click on the "Labels" link at the top of the page.
- You will see a list of all your labels, including the ones you created.
- Click on a label to view all the posts that are categorized under that label.
Tips and Variations
- You can create multiple levels of categories by using sub-labels. For example, you can create a label called "Technology" and then create sub-labels like "Smartphones", "Laptops", etc.
- You can also use a combination of labels and categories to create a hierarchical structure. For example, you can create a label called "Technology" and then create a category called "Gadgets" under it.
- To make your categories more visible, you can add a label cloud or a label list to your blog's sidebar. To do this, go to the "Layout" section of your Blogger settings and drag and drop the "Label cloud" or "Label list" widget to your sidebar.
By following these steps, you can create news categories on Blogger using labels and make it easier for your readers to find related content on your blog.
