Add Tags to Posts in WordPress

WordPress tags :

A tag is a keyword or key phrase that is used to group related posts on your WordPress blog. It is similar to labels in a Blogger blog. With tags, you can categorize your posts just like categories on WordPress. You can add multiple tags to a single post in WordPress, and once you add a tag to a blog post, that post will be linked to that tag.

In WordPress, you can change or delete tag names at any time for your blog posts. In this post, I will explain how to add tags to your blog posts in WordPress.
