About Tags
-
Sorry if this is a simple question with a simple answer, but I was wondering about tags.
Do I use these for my own benefit to find my posts which have the same tags, or are these for the public and other WordPress users to find a blog like mine and others which have the same tag? Hope that makes sense lol
Thank you in advance

Both.
Tags and the tag widget are a handy way for visitors to your blog to find posts with the same topic or subject matter.
A visitor can click on the tag beneath a post or in a sidebar widget to find other posts with the same tag.Tags also list a posts in the WordPress.com global tag system where others can find your blog.
Tags also aid search engines like google by acting as a keyword (if your blog is set for search engines to index)
