Sticky Posts in Blogger

Important Notes:

i) In the new Blogger platform, the URL of Posts follow the month and year that are specified in the “Post month and date” option. In our example, we specified the month as August and the year as 2015. The Post URL will be http://BLOG URL/2015/08/TITLE.html. This URL will remain unchanged even if you edit the post and alter the date. Good for us. It means that we can change the date of an earlier post without affecting the backlinks to that post. People who linked to that URL will not have to change the link address.

ii) You can therefore alter an existing post in the same manner. Edit the Post. Change the year to a much later year and the post will always appear on your Home page.

iii) The other point to note is that when the year 2015 arrives, you may have to alter the post date yet again to another later date. Who knows, perhaps by then you may not want that post to appear on your Home Page anymore.

iv) If you want a recent post to be stored somewhere at the end of your archive list, and never to appear in the list of recent posts, use the same method but change the date to an earlier date, a year like 1950.
