Hey buddies ! I am back with the similar Blogger SEO Friendly Template Designing tutorial. As you know that today I am going to teach you that how can we SEO optimize archive links in blogger. Blog archive is an old blogger gadget which holds our blog's history. This gadget categorizes our blog's posts orderly by year, by month, by week and day as well. This gadget's links point to different posts which are published in the past. By default these links can create problem for SEO and search engine's robots as crawling duplicate content from our blog. As I told you in my previous post that crawler need only one unique address for search engines to be crawled.

These links are very harmful for the site owner so we have to avoid search engines from crawling archive links. We can avoid search engines from crawling archive links by using an HTML attribute which will tell the search engine's crawler that these are archive links so they will automatically understand it and would not crawl it. Here is the easiest process to add that HTML attribute which I have mentioned above.
