Note: Before you are going to add html to blogger post you convert it as xml compatible one. that html to plain text usign this html to xml parser tool  .
If I am going  to add following line html code in blogger post.
    
    <footer class="footer">
     <div class="container">
         <p class="text-muted text-center">
            Copy right by <a href="http://www.smarttutorials.net/">

Copy your html code and paste in the html to xml parser tool, Now it will automatically parse the html code in to xml compatible code.
