- Rank higher in google and Index your pages quickly by setting up Categories and Tags properly.
In WordPress, categories and tags are two taxonomies used to organize and classify content. While they serve similar purposes, there are key differences in their use and functionality.
In summary, categories provide a broad organizational structure, while tags offer a more granular and flexible way to associate posts with specific topics or keywords. Together, they enhance the user experience by making it easier for visitors to find and explore content that aligns with their interests.
Categories
==============
Categories are used to group content into broad topics or sections. They provide a way to organize and structure the main themes of your website.
Example Categories for a News/Blog Website:
Politics
Technology
Entertainment
Health
Sports
Tags
==========
Tags, on the other hand, are used to add more specific details to individual posts. They provide a way to highlight keywords or topics within the broader categories.
Example Tags for a News/Blog Website:
Politics Category:
Election2024
ForeignPolicy
Technology Category:
Gadgets
Entertainment Category:
MovieReviews
CelebrityNews
Health Category:
FitnessTips
MentalHealth
Sports Category:
Football

It's a great video but I have a question about the tag-related topic. Because GSC shows the all tags pages (
Discovered - currently not indexed) so doing all tag pages SEO?
hello dear, as I explained in the video and in many other videos. DO NOT include tags in your site map. Categories should be indexed on the sitemap. Because when you google crawl the tag pages they might have same data and google will not index them and they will always be stucked in the discovered currently not indexed phase.
Remove them from sitemap and then wait for few months so that google can delete those urls from the database. Also I recommend you to watch my gsc error series and the seo videos you will have a lot of knowledge about website indexing and rankings. Best wishes!
great , thanks
Glad you liked it!

If we add one single post in the category and tags at the same time, will it lead to cannibalization ??
cannabalization?? it might show duplicate content error in search console: but for that also we have solutions like not to add tags to the google index. Watch the no index video to learn that my brother.
Well, the questions is should we index are categories and tags rank math says no due to duplicate content possibilities. What do you think?
Hey, So do not index the tags, I explained in other videos too. Categories are enough to index. Hope I answered your question 😇

Bro please read this message below please 🙏👇👇👇
Bro, I have 9 pages showing green light in my search console. Which means it has been indexed well by Google.
This includes my website and 8 articles I wrote on my site.
The 8 articles have been properly indexed but I can't find them in search results when I search for them myself.
It's like it is not ranking at all on Google bro😢.
My question is, will it show up in search results or even rank on Google?
@@beeviliscar4528 okay indexing and ranking are 2 different things. first thing is done that they are indexed , they might be shown on search results if someone search the related keyword, but then google will see how long people stayed in the site and was that article useful . Also it depends on the quality of the article. check the same top ranked article on google and compare your article with the top ranked one and you will know how googd your content is.
@@LetsCreateYourWEBSITE Bro, the issue here is, some of the keywords I wrote articles on. I saw no one using that same keywords.
So I still don't know why it's not ranking bro🤦
@@beeviliscar4528 it takes time dear to rank. Have patience if you wrote a good article your page will rank.
