How to Create Pages in Blogger and Add Them to Your Menu (2026)
Want an About, Contact or Privacy Policy page on your Blogger blog? This guide shows how to create pages in Blogger and add them to your menu. When Google first added pages to Blogger in 2010 you could make only 10 of them, while WordPress had always allowed unlimited pages. Blogger pages are much easier to manage now, and the steps below work in the current Blogger dashboard in 2026.
Quick answer: Sign in to Blogger, choose your blog and click Pages in the left menu. Click New page, add a title and your content, then click Publish. To show pages in your menu or sidebar, go to Layout > Add a Gadget > Pages, tick the pages you want and save.

Pages vs posts in Blogger
- Posts appear on your home page in date order, have labels and show up in your blog feed.
- Pages are standalone and timeless. They don’t appear in the post list or feed, which makes them perfect for About, Contact, Privacy Policy, Disclaimer, Advertise or Start Here pages.
How to create a page in Blogger
- Go to Blogger.com (external site) and sign in with your Google account.
- Choose your blog from the drop-down at the top left.
- Click Pages in the left menu.
- Click New page (the plus button).
- Type a page title, for example About, then write your content. Use the toolbar to add images, links and headings, or switch to HTML view.
- Open Page settings on the right to set a custom permalink, a search description and comment options.
- Click Publish. Your page is live at
yourblog.blogspot.com/p/page-name.html.
Add pages to your Blogger menu
- Click Layout in the left menu.
- In the header, navigation or sidebar area, click Add a Gadget.
- Choose Pages (some themes call it Page List).
- Tick the pages to show, drag them into the order you like, and add external links if needed.
- Click Save, then save the layout. Many themes show this gadget as a top menu bar.
Essential pages every blog should have
- About: who you are and what readers will find on your blog.
- Contact: add Blogger’s free Contact Form gadget or an email address. See why readers need a contact form.
- Privacy Policy: needed if you use AdSense, analytics or cookies.
- Disclaimer or Disclosure: required if you earn from affiliate links.
- Start Here or Best Posts: a guide to your most useful articles for new visitors.
Tips for better Blogger pages
- Keep page URLs short and descriptive before you publish; changing them later breaks links.
- Add a search description so your page looks good in Google results.
- Turn comments off on pages like Privacy Policy and Contact.
- Update your About page once a year so it stays accurate.

FAQ
Why don’t my Blogger pages show on my blog?
Publishing a page doesn’t add it to your menu. Add the Pages gadget in Layout and tick the page.
Can I change a Blogger page URL?
You can set a custom permalink before publishing. After publishing, changing it creates a new address, so update any links pointing to the old one.
Do Blogger pages appear in my RSS feed?
No. Only posts appear in your blog feed and on your home page.
Can I make a page my Blogger home page?
Not directly. Blogger’s home page always shows your latest posts, but you can link a Start Here page prominently in your menu.

adding new page is a cool feature in blogger and i have got the same problem of adding new post under new page…please help…
How do you add additional posts to the new pages?
I have the same question at Ja’e. How do you add additional posts to the new pages?
Hi thanks for the tip. I’m new to Blogger and I’m sure this is really easy, but I can’t figure it out. After I have added the new pages, I want them to have the same template as my home page. How do I do that? I don’t see anywhere to upload a template. Thanks in advance.

How to you add additional posts to a new page?
Like how you do on the home page.
Same as Qiuting. I don’t like the link list format.
How do we get all pages in tab format on the same line? I am wondering if adding the pages as individual elements, side by side would work.
Hi, how do i change my pages into a tab format? Currently it’s a list format and it’s quite ugly.. =((
thanks. it obvious that you are a blogger guru, yours in blogger, Haybee
In your opening paragraph, you said “Well Bloggers introduced the ability to create pages in Blogger recently”. Should read “Well Blogger introduced”.
Good intro to a long-awaited feature!
Thanks. Fixed that.
Been waiting for Blogger to add that feature, and finally it’s here! Now I’m somewhat wishing my WordPress blog was on Blogger since they also have all the gadgets and widgets too.
Blogger is the best, but we can’t use it,because in china using blogspot is impossible.
Then try wordpress.com, tumblr or posterous. They are all easy.
Hi. Any idea on how can I add more of the pages, ie. aside from just the ‘Home’, e.g. I would like to add ‘About me’
And I would like to add the Blogger ‘about me’ under that ‘About me’ page which I would like to create. Just like how wordpress does.
Any idea?
Hope you can help.
Thanks in advance.
Go to Posting > Edit Pages > New Page
and create upto 10 page including About Me as you want.
