I have a Self Improvement Blog at Blogger and I was in need for that trick, thanks..
but that’s not categories, that’s just simple tags
i know there’s a way to emulate categories using javascript and searchengine
or using your e-mail account, but they are not comfortable either
i will search further
and good luck to you too
No, labels are categories in Blogger. The label widget displays exactly as categories would in WordPress. Tags usually provide a list with each word enlarging as more posts are tagged with that word. Labels in Blogger don’t do this, unless you use Javascript.
Look at tags in WordPress blogs, and you’ll see how tags are displayed.
It doesn’t matter what the labels look like
labels just act like a simple keywords offering us a great help with SEO
of course we can use them as categories
but labels just lose their sense that way
If you use labels as tags, you would end up with massive list in your sidebar. It could get to the point where it is just too large to be useful. I have seen blogs with possibly hundreds of labels. This is why labels are more related to categories in that a smaller number is much better to display. Most bloggers may only use one category per post which is perfect for displaying labels.
There can be many tags, on the other hand, per post. You can’t display labels in a way that allows you to easily display a list of labels if you specify many labels per post. That is why using labels as categories in Blogger is more suitable than as tags.
If Blogger really meant to use them as tags, the Labels widget doesn’t display a lot of them easily.
Thank you so much!
well, i guess searchengines don’t use labels as keywords
so, they’re better for categories
thanks for your suggation
Thank you very much for this very useful post.
