Categories can be a great way to help organize your blog posts so that others can find your posts quickly. I worked on this over the summer at my MiraCosta College WordPress blog. After categorizing posts, add the “Categories” widget to your menu so others can browse your posts.
Here is a short, closed-captioned tutorial about how I do this:

Ted Major says: Great tutorial, Laura. One of the things I had a hard time understanding when I first started blogging was the difference between tags & categories.
Laura Paciorek says: Thank you, Ted. Now I am inspired to make a tutorial about tags and the tag cloud for people who are setting up their blogs for the first time.
Thanks for sharing this Laura!
Claire Major says: Nice video! It’s a good tip, and your instructions are easy to follow!
Thats a really good video, lot’s of people are confussed when it comes to setting up categories so thanks for sharing.
