Categories & TagsFinish up your post with a few things that help to make your post more visible and available to your readers (found on the right side of the window)

Categories help your post get grouped with posts about similar topics

Tags help your post become searchable in search engines. Think of key words that define your post (i.e. GYAS, youth leaders, social justice, etc.) and add those to the “Post Tags” section
