How to Hide a Post on Blogspot

Google Blogspot lets you customize the publish date for your blog posts, which you use to hide a blog post after you publish it. The post still displays in older archives, if you choose to display archive posts in your blog layout. Back-dating the post removes it from the home page, so the blog post publishes, but it is only available for search engines to add fresh content to your blog while hiding the post from visitors.

1.

Open a Web browser and log in to your Blogspot dashboard. Click the "New Post" button. If you want to hide a previous post that you have already published, click the post title in the dashboard to open it in the editor.

2.

Scroll down to the bottom of the editor to the section labeled "Post Date and Time." Type a previous date and time for the blog post.

3.

Click "Publish." After you receive confirmation that the post publishes, open your blog in a separate browser tab. Notice the blog post is hidden from view and is not available to your readers.
