Posts not showing up in tagged reader?
-
Hello,
I’ve been posting since March and have never came across this problem. My new posts show up in the “Blogs I Follow” tag, but it won’t show up in the other tags. I don’t over-tag (I tag maybe 5-8 words), nothing is inappropriate, spam, or adult content, etc. I’ve had to delete 6 times my new posts because they won’t show up anywhere. The latest post I have is this one: https://styliststeph87.wordpress.com/2014/11/24/pumpkin-spice-cranberry-thanksgiving-makeup-tutorial/ and it’s from November 24th. It showed up in the “Blogs I Follow” tag, but not the other tags. I tried making new posts to see if I did something wrong, but nothing I post will show up in any tags. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Do you have tags which are duplicates of categories, or vice versa? This might result in the failure you describe. See https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/posts-not-appearing-in-reader-under-tags?replies=2

I have a categories list with the same tag names, but I don’t click on or use those categories. They’re just kind of there as a list, but I don’t use them. My posts are classified and posted as uncategorized.

Delete them. They cannot do you any good.
If you are deleting and re-posting your posts, you will be classified as a spammer, if you haven’t been already. Stop doing that. It is considered trying to game the tag system.
Don’t worry about tags anyway. I’ve been here eight and a half years and haven’t seen a referral from a tag page in maybe three years.
Also, delete the ad at the top of your sidebar. Blogger-initiated advertising is against the terms of service and will get your blog suspended.

Should I delete both of the ads? I’m affiliated with that cosmetic group (I just got affiliated with them 2 weeks ago and added those ads 2 weeks ago), so I can’t advertise that?
And what should I delete? The tags? That’s usually how people find my posts and how I get new followers. Of course I use social media as well, but it seems like using tags helps me the most right now since I’ve only been posting since March.
I tried making new posts about completely different topics and using completely different tags, and it still wouldn’t show up in the reader so I’m just confused as to why my posts aren’t showing up in the reader at all. Will just deleting my ads on my sidebar bring my posts back to the reader?
I’m sorry for all the questions. I never had this issue before and I’m still sorta new to this.
