Are you using tags in your blog?
Writing blog posts is one of the most effective and useful ways to show readers the content you are working on and possibly how you can help them. Establishing a consistent readership is great for your site, but how can you improve your blog posts? By tagging them. Tags act as a link for topics between blog posts.
3 Reasons to Tag Your Blog Posts
- Help readers find other related interests
Have you ever been reading an article and found yourself completely immersed in the topic, wanting to know more about the subject? Tagging your blog posts will help readers find the topic in previous posts. For example, if you wrote an article about Facebook, by including a Facebook tag readers can click on the link and find other blog postings about the topic.
- It keeps your blog organized
Keeping your blog organized will not only showcase your hard work and creative content, but it will also help your readers. Many blogs include a search feature. When using the search engine on a blog, tagged key words will show up in the results. This gives the reader the opportunity to see the variety of posts under that term.
- Help your SEO Awareness
Using tags in your blog post can also help you outside of your site. When readers use search engines to look up a topic, tagging your blog can help them come up in the search results. This will not only allow for users to read your blog content, but will also expose some readers to your site for the first time.
Tagging your posts will not only organize your blog, but will help readers find more information about topics they enjoy reading. What other tips do you have to improve blogs and content?
