What is a tag?
You can use a tag to group related posts together on your site. In WordPress, tags are a type of taxonomy, just like categories. They help describe specific details about your posts and make it easier for visitors to find related content. Each tag creates its own archive page that lists all the posts using that tag.
Why should you install Fewer Tags?
While tags are useful for connecting related content, using too many tags can make your site harder to navigate and manage. If your site has more tags than posts, it usually means your taxonomy is overloaded. Too many tags lead to thin content or empty archive pages that do not add any real value. Empty or near-empty archive pages can hurt your SEO and negatively impact user experience. Installing Fewer Tags helps you manage your tags more effectively and keeps your site organized.
How do you install Fewer Tags and clean up taxonomies?
- Open your WordPress dashboard
- Go to plugins and search for “Fewer Tags”
- Install and activate the Fewer Tags plugin
- Review your existing tags
- Use the plugin and clean up tags that are unnecessary, empty, or only connected to one post
