Beginner Blogger – Adding Categories to your Blog Post in WordPress

ADVERTISEMENTS

Categories are the index to your blog. This is how you classify your blog post so they can be found by your readers. Generally, I recommend you try to limit your categories to no more then 20, with 15 being a better number. Readers can browse specific categories to see all post in that category This is why we place the categories towards the top of the sidebar in your blog.

There are two ways you can add a category to your blog or a post.

As always we will be starting in the Dashboard. There are two links you can use to get to where you can add categories. The (1) Post link and (2) Categories link. Lets start by clicking on #1.

The Add New Post Screen

Once you click on the Add New Post link you will be brought to the Add New Post screen. Next you will need to look to the right side of your screen and you will see the Categories area. This is where you can add categories in the Write Post screen. Simply click on the Add New Category link and you can add a new category as indicated below.

Adding a New Category

Using the Category Link in the Dashboard

By clicking on the Category link in the Dashboard, you will get this screen where you can manage your categories. Adding, deleteing and editing them as you want. You most likely will spend most of your time with categories inside the Add New Post function as this is where you are going to either assign the category or will add new ones as you add new post.
