  <script type="text/javascript">
  var numposts = 100;
  var standardstyling = true;
  
  function showrecentposts(json) {
    for (var i = 0; i < numposts; i++) {
      var entry = json.feed.entry[i];

      document.write(posttitle);}
      if (standardstyling) document.write('</li>');
  }
  </script>
  <ul>
  <script src="http://www.example.com/feeds/posts/default/-/Your%20Label?orderby=published&amp;alt=json-in-script&amp;callback=showrecentposts&amp;max-results=999"></script>
  </ul>

• Replace www.example.com with your own blog URL and Your%20Label with label for which you want to create a page.
  Tip: If you have single word as your label page like “SEO” then replace Blogger%20Tricks with SEO but if you have more than one word in your label name then put %20 between them to separate them. The name is case sensitive. So, take care of it.
• Now click on Publish button.
• You are done.

Now use that page URL whenever you need to link your category (label page). It will boost the page rank of all of your blog posts.
