Tags are a type of taxonomy or organizational tool you can add to any post that you want and they also communicate with other websites, to add post tags enter the tags inside the box and separate them with comma then click on add tags.
If you add a post tag to a post information about that post will be passed on to Google and other sites that track tags so that if someone searches for the word that you use as a tag will most likely to find your post
You can add as many tags as you want to any post can have many tags if you have 5 posts out of 10 that have online games as a tag you can go and search for the tag online games will only get those 5 post nothing else
Below the post tag we have featured image then you have a location
Location only appears if you have location awareness activated in the settings for the site.
How To Use Excerpt and Send Trackbacks In Word Press
Under the editor area you have a box called excerpt. |
| Excerpt Box |
Excerpt gives you the option of writing a small version of the post or a small description of the post
Description will then appear for instance in the RSS feed for your blog
The RSS feed is a feed that pushes all that information from your blog to people who don't actually visit your blog but rather readers through their email or through an RSS reader. That means for people who only see the text version of your site they’ll now see that short description with a link to the full post.
Below excerpt you will find send Trackbacks
Send Trackbacks literally sends a message to a blog or a website that you link to within your article link to it so they know about it and there is a link back to you
 |
| Send Trackbacks Box |
Below that you have discussion in discussion people can leave comments on your posts and also whether or not those Trackbacks that would be sent from send Trackbacks will appear if other people write about your post
 |
| Discussion Box |
below this you have the revisions box when you write an article in WordPress now word press does auto saves almost continuously it every two minutes or so
 |
| The Revisions Box |
If your computer crashes or if you lose your Internet connection or some like that WordPress will save a fairly updated version of your article so you can always go back and revert to an earlier version this is great for when your system breaks down and is also great if you made an accidental change and you want to revert back to something else.
