What Are Blogger Limits On Blogs, Labels, Posts, Images, And More

I recently received an Email from a reader who was surprised to find out they had reached the limit on the number of different Labels they could use on their blog.While Blogger does not have many restrictions there are some limits for things like total labels and labels per post.So before you get taken by surprise lets look at the Limits And Restrictions Blogger have in place...

Number of Blogs - There is no limit to the number of blogs you can create in your Blogger/Google account.

Number of Posts - Blogger have no restriction on the number of posts you publish on your blog.

Size of Posts - Your Blog Posts can be as large or small as you like.Very long posts especially with lots of images will cause severe page load delays so don't over do it or you may loose visitors.



Size of Pages - Individual pages (the main page of your blog, or your archive pages) are limited to 1 MB in size. This will allow for a few hundred pages of text, but it may be a problem if you are listing hundreds of posts on the front page of your blog. If you hit this limit, you will see an error message saying "006 Please contact Blogger Support." You can get around this error by Lowering the number of posts on your main page, which will have the added benefit of making your page load faster as well.

Number of Comments - Each post can have an unlimited amount of comments. As with archived posts, if you choose to hide comments on your blog, all pre-existing comments will remain saved on your account.

Number of Pictures - You are provided with Up to 1 GB of total storage, shared with Google's Picasa Web.

Size of Pictures - If you are posting pictures through Blogger Mobile there is a limit of 250K per picture.

Team Members - Up to 100 people can be invited to and post on a blog.

Number of Labels - Each blog can have up to 2000 unique labels and each post can have 20 labels.

Blog Description - Limited to 500 characters, with no HTML. Adding additional characters or HTML may cause it to revert to a previous setting.

"About Me" Profile Information - Your about section in your profile can use a Maximum of 1,200 characters.

Profile Interests and Favorites - Your Interests section in your profile can use a Maximum of 2,000 characters in each field.

I'm sure this information will help you avoid running up against any limits and also realize the freedom you have with things like number of Blogs and Posts. The only restriction i ever hear of people having trouble with is the total unique labels limit but i think 2000 is plenty.
