   Categories are Broader Views while Tags are not. Say for an example If you write something on Keeping Your PC secure. You put it under category Security.

   Now lets tag it. You makes tags like pc,pc tips

   Now lets say you write another post on How to Keep PC Clean. Now this does not come under security but under Say "Pc Maintenance" but still you can tag this post as "pc tips"

   So now you have 2 post which have same tag called as "pc tips" but under different category.

   tags bring similar articles together more like mini categories.

   SEO wise, As far as I understand try to create similar tags. Dont make too many tags. Its not a must have for SEO but helps.

   Hi all, I was wondering how I can add tags to my blogger in addition to labels/categories? I have a problem with related posts where it pulls all posts filed under same lable/catgory instead of tags. I dont have tags option on my blogger and have only labels. Please suggest.
   Thanks.
   John.

   John - Blogger doesn't support tags. You can however use Blogger labels as an equivalent of Wordpress Categories.
