This is an example of my Blogging Tips label feed. How i got it? This is actually a hidden feature by Google. To change the above feed link to your own label feed link, just change the code in red

This is my Blogger BlogID = 7918028117876789761

You must change it to your own BlogID. How can you get it?

- Go to the Dashboard
- Click Edit Posts at your Blog name.
- Watch the URL link at the URL box above




- The image above is an example of my BlogID. Yours will be different numbers. So copy your BlogID to the code and replace it.

- And finally replace the label Blogging%20tips with your label. You now have your own label feed URL.

by adding a dash and your chosen label name at the end of the URL

Dear Signal. Do you use a default label cloud in Blogger? If you use a default label cloud, there's no need to put codes

Just enter LAYOUT - ADD GADGET - Choose LABEL - And opt for CLOUD option
