How to create a Sitemap page on blogger
Blog archive and labels in blogger have all the information published in the blog... But the limitation is that it will not be indexed or grouped as a sitemap and cannot be made to appear on a single page completely...
In this tutorial we are going to share with you “How to create a sitemap page on blogger”
First of all let’s define what a Sitemap is:
A sitemap page is a page that arranges all of your post and makes it available for blog readers to find what they are looking for.
We are going to use a piece of JavaScript that will help you add a “table of content or sitemap on blogger page showing the index of all post on the blog” categorized label by label. It will also show latest post with a text saying New!
