Are tags on a blog post a waste of time?

February 20th, 2010

I recently received a question regarding why I have taken down the tags on my posts. The reason was because watched a video from google (Also embedded below) which made me wounder how much they are benefiting (and being used by) my users. After a brief test (I watched how many people were using the tag pages) I found that very few users actually were using them.

The best way to summarize what I found would be:

For every 246 human users clicking a link on a page, 1 would be clicking a tag link.
