Adding a New Tag
Adding a new tag is very similar to adding a new category and can be done as you create the blog post.
Tags appear directly below Categories.
Instead of a list of tags like you have with categories, the Most Used Tags are shown and you can select one.
Alternatively, start typing a tag name and a list of matches will appear for selection.
You can, of course, continue to enter a completely new tag name and it will be both added to the list and associated with the blog post.

I use categories to group related posts together in a menu. It's certainly possible that categories have become less relevant as Google moves towards content quality and value but as they are unlikely to do any harm and it takes only a few seconds to add them, I continue to do so.
