  I understand categories…but what are tags? And how are they different from categories?

  As far as I can tell, tags are inferior to categories. Tags are supposed to be unique to your blog, smaller than categories: categories are like chapter headings, and tags are more like notes in an index.

  But as far as I can tell, Categories have as much or more SEO than tags. I have a ton of Categories and can’t see any reason to use tags instead, nor has anyone ever put forth a compelling argument for it. There’s a category to tag converter, but nothing the other way around, either.
