  When you go to the WordPress home page, there are a bunch of blogs separated by topic (Entertainment, Technology, Art, etc.) How can I find out what topic my blog is identified under, and possibly change it if need be?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  It’s not a blog that gets Categoriezed it’s posts in a blog. More to the point, it is we bloggers who choose to assign relevant Categories and Tags to their posts. The Global Tag Listings at WordPress.com aggregate all published posts attached to any particular tag or category, and display the most popular topics.

  Ok, got it, thanks. Tagging and Categories are easy enough. I’m just trying to figure out what my visibility is.

  I make sure I keep the combined number of relevant categories and tags under 10 on any post and then I don’t run into this problem > global tags > missing posts
