  Hi koolbeanz247,

  There is no limit to the number of posts that can be assigned to a category.

  We recommend using no more than 15 categories (or a combination of categories and tags) for each post:

  Organize Posts with Categories

  It’s worth noting that posts are less likely to show up Reader topic listings if they are assigned to a large number of categories. So I’d say it’s best to use them sparingly and keep them relevant. Doing it that way will also mean people find the posts they are looking for, rather than posts almost on topic.
