Blogging Tip: Organize Your Menu Bar

Today, let’s talk about your blog site.

There are tons of tutorials out there on how to change the physical appearances of your blog, and there are tons of reasons out there why you should. I encourage you to spend some time in your Reader or using the tutorials provided by WordPress to improve the physicality of your blog. The way your blog looks should reflect you and what your blog talks about.

However, that is not what today’s tip is about.

Today, I am suggesting that you take a look at your menu bar. This can look different depending on what style you choose for your blog layout. However, with every blog layout there is some kind of menu drop-down bar. It is beyond my understanding why some bloggers only have “Home,” “About Me,” and “Contact” within their menu when they have been blogging for over a year and have hundreds of posts.

If you have more than a handful of posts that deal with different subjects then you need to be categorizing them (using the “Categories & Tags” menu on the right side of the screen when you create a post) and creating a sub-menu for that category on your main page.
