yeah it is important that you have a easy and friendly archives, so that readers will still stay on your website and can explore more of your content. Blogger put much attention on creating lot of content and neglecting some parts of the website.

If you’re using any sort of content management system to blog, then you need a usable and efficient archiving system, or your new visitors will not be able to find your older content without trawling for hours. No-one wants to do that. All it takes is a sensible search function and the breaking down of older blogs by month/year and/or category.

Why not use the SRG Clean Archives plugin which lets you list every post by month and comments as well?

Currently, I don’t have an archives page on my blog, which is hosted by Wordpress.com. However, my new upcoming site should have an archives page because it will be powered by self-hosted Wordpress.

I like the tips and that you wrote the code yourself! No need to change anything for us non-techies.

I’d love more Wordpress tutorials like these to be posted here more often. In my opinion, list posts have been done enough here. Thanks again for the code!

This is a great post but the problem is I am unable to find Page Template option in my page admin panel. I am using Wordpress v2.8.6.
Maybe I thing its a bug in version.
