Thanks to Narcissist, a fellow blogger to happen to review my blog. He offered many of his viewpoint with one as  

Content -I do not have much advice for you as far as content is concerned. The only thing I would be concerned about your content is that it is not about a specific area. For example someone who is into parenting would have subscribed to your blog and they might not really be interested in blogging tips. You might want to get a private domain and move these categories into separate sub domains.

And, the above suggestion helped me to create my own specific label feeds or category feeds for my blog as you can see on the right hand sidebar under Copyrights tag. Fortunately, I did not find any posts under this topic in Google search and it paved a way for me to create a post on this topic which might be useful for others who needs it .

How to provide a category specific feed using Blogspot or Blogger

Blogspot and Blogger call their categories "labels."

Set up a label

1. From your blogging dashboard, select the Edit Posts link for your blog.
2. Write a post as you normally would. When you're finished, look for the Labels entry box at the bottom of the editing form. Enter a label for your new Fedora-specific feed there -- we recommend fedora.
3. After you publish the post, view your blog. You'll see the label for the post at the bottom of the post itself.

You can use this same label for later posts. Next to the entry box for labels on the editing form, there is a Show all link. If you select that link, you can select from the list of all the labels you've used.

Accessing the label's feed

To access the blog posts with that label, start on your blog's main page. Look for a post with the fedora label. The name of your new label is a link with a URL that looks like this:

• http://example.blogspot.com/search/label/fedora

The RSS feed for that new label can be found at this URL:

• http://example.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/-/fedora/?alt=rss

This label specific feed is the one you should use for the Planet, rather than the feed for your entire blog. By adding a fedora label to your Fedora-specific posts, you can continue to post whatever content you like on your blog, but can indicate on-topic and appropriate material for the Fedora Planet.

Now add your feed!
Now you should return to Fedora Planet wiki page and follow the directions there for adding your label specific feed to the Planet.
