In a school, students will be divided into different groups. Some may be in
section A and some in Section B. Some may be science students whereas some may
be commerce students. Some may be in upper block and some may be in lower block.
This means students of a school are divided into different groups. First why students of a same school should be divided into different groups? Why they can’t be kept together?
Let us say one school kept all its students at one. How will be the
condition of the school? There will be chaos and confusion. A mother coming to
meet her daughter Marie won’t find her easily. There will hundreds and hundreds
of students.
This is the case with blogging. Your published posts individually can be
students of a school called Blogging. All your posts will be divided into different
groups. Every group is a label. In some case, it's known as category. They are same. The process of assigning labels for your posts
is called labeling.
Therefore, labeling of your posts is as important as dividing school
children into different groups. Just like a mother cannot find her daughter
Marie easily among undivided students, search engines cannot find a
keywords-containing post among your unlabelled posts. Marie’s mother will be
search engine in blogging context. Marie can be a post containing queries and
keywords that your readers are searching for in your blog.
Dividing your posts into various labels may be important. But equally
designing of labels for your blog is also important. Your labels should be
short, simple and attractive.
What actually determines how you design your labels?
- Area of Blogging
- Popular Things
- Urgent Things
How you design your labels should start from the area in which you are
blogging. This means your blogging niche should be kept as a root of all
labels. Labels can be just like its trunk, branches and twigs.
Let us say I am exclusively blogging on Digital Cameras. This means my niche
of blogging is Digital Cameras. When I write about digital cameras, I might be
writing about Samsung Cameras, Nikon Cameras and Canon Cameras. So Samsung,
Nikon and Canon can be my labels.
The area of blogging where I have been focusing until now is Blogging Tips
& Tricks. Let us see how I have designed my labels:
- Blogger
- Web Design
- Instagram Gadget
- Blogging Tips
- WordPress
Therefore, we have to be smart in designing labels. It shouldn’t be at
random. The randomly assigned labels will instead confuse the search engines.
