Add Google Breadcrumbs in Blogspot: Breadcrumbs are the blog post labels which google and bing shows in search results instead of permalink. Both permalinks and labels plays the same role in search engine optimization. However, breadcrumbs makes it easy for search engines to navigate along your blogger posts. Search engines like google and bing will not show the breadcrumbs unless you publish your blog post categorically with labels.
