Add a Sitemap to Your Blogger Blog.

A sitemap is a checklist of Pages or Labels or Posts that are published in your Blog. You can call it also as the Directory or Table of Contents or Index. Actually, it isn't the sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools. Simply this is a widget that helps the readers of your blog to find their desired content easily.

Please, see the Demo: Demo Sitemap.

"Having Sitemap" is also one of the "Terms and Conditions" of Google Adsense. It's an easy way to enhance Internal Linking. Because, you can see all the posts published in your blog. It helps to increase visitors to your blog. It also boosts the possibility to be indexed by the Search Engine Crawlers.

Today, I am going to discuss about how to add a sitemap in a blogger's blog. This Sitemap adds all of the latest posts (autimatically) by catagories that are published. At first you can follow this tutorial about How to Create a New Page on Blogger Blog.

How to Add a Sitemap or Table of Contents to Your Blogger Blog:

• Log In to your blogger dashboard.
• Click on the down arrow and then click on Pages. Here's a screenshot for you.

• On the next page: Click on the "New Page".
• Your post editor page is opened. Select, HTML.
• Now, copy the code given below and paste it into your post editor. 

<style>
p.labels a{color: #242424; text-transform: uppercase;font-size: 15px;}
a.post-titles {color: #0000FF;}
ol li{list-style-type:decimal;line-height:25px;}
</style>
