This is propably one of the most discussed topics ever on the internet. Google Blogger is great. Kudos to google for this wonderful software, and I thank them and words aren’t enough to do this. One thing however, which makes people choose wordpress.com over blogger is the fact that blogger lacks categories. You can’t organise your posts into categories. But there are workarounds. While most people suggest long and complicated workarounds, some even needing external sites, I am going to show you how you can do it with built in tools in blogger. All you need is to ensure that you have tags which are the same as categories. This post for example, is tagged with Tutorials among other things. And tutorials, as you see, is a category on my blog. What you do is simple. Under the layout section, create a links list called categories. Here, in website name section, write your category. In link section, you write search link for the category tag. How ? Simple. Go to a published post, and click on the “category” tag. It brings you to the search page for all posts tagged with that category. Here, the list of posts seen is almost exactly like wordpress categories. For a good example, just have a look at my blog. Hope this ensured that category lovers give blogger a second look. Good luck and Happy Blogging.
