STARTING YOUR OWN BLOG PAGE THIS WILL HELP YOU GET STARTED
Here we go. What is a blog well its kinda like an online journal the word blog means weblog. I have three blog at the moment although two of them i use to experiment with different HTML scripts lots of people have blogs there is a list of some of my favorites on the left of my page so look around mine and you can see what its all about all my entries have dates and times when they were posted also i might leave links there to other sites that relate to the picture/story. Although you can do what you want get something of your chest photo's,writing,news,story's its up to you. I first got into it just looking around the web i read a lot about it for six months then i took the plunge there are many blog providers such as Link and Link both are free or try this Link this one is not free though its good how you can find people with the same interests all over the world people have links to my site which is nice nice nice so its a nice network people can leave comments under each picture or story so they can be very interactive but most of my Friends don't have a PC and the rest are to lazy or just don't bother just as i thought so i told no one for six months or so this gave me time to experiment with different add-ons and things and helped me get better over time one thing i will point out though is to have one main blog and one for experimenting and trying things out i didn't do this till later (which was a bad idea) as i was testing new html Scripps in my main blog you can do this but i think your better to second one to try it out first i found out the hard way but this is the best way to do it as i tyred new ideas You can start basic blog quite easily and you don't need to be a Tecky you can learn how to do basic touch ups and the more experience you get the more hungry you get to try different scripts. All you have to do is register with a blog provider enter your details select a basic skin although you can make your own we will start with the basics and free till you get the hang of it then add your first photo or story just like in an email message format "add photo,browse,pick photo, then submit. that's it your up and ruining What can i put in my blog you decide after all its your page people have different stuff weather its News,Interests, Hobbies,Family,Photo's Footy, anything that interest you there is also lots of different add-ons available on the Internet for free and you can post as often as you like Weekly,Monthly, Daily so now you can start adding favorites links "don't panic" at this point just take your time that's what its all about. First go to your browser hit view next to Favorites and Tools then hit Source this is what you call HTML for the page every page on the Internet has this when you first see this don't worry you may be totally lost but the browser understands this and turns it into the pages that your reading now. So you want to put some of your favorite links on your page. Lets get started then I'm assuming your using Link first go to Dashboard then Settings (simple) then Template and again Don't Panic you will see that the HTML looks very confusing don't fret. First go down the template page slowly till you see href http EDIT ME (x2) nice and easy or try this tip Hold Ctrl + F this will bring a pop up window where you can type in what ever your looking for and it will take it to that part of the HTML were it is on the page so when you find it were you can see above (edit me)put in the fill http address for example put .lalalajoeblogs dot com then in the second link you can put what you like for example Joe, or Joe blog, as long as you have the full address in the first link that's it preview it if you like it save new settings finished. also blogger have two links set up there to help you that say EDIT ME that's were you put your two address so you could do Ctrl+F and type edit me in there and that's you there go to your favorite site go to address bar copy/paste the full address of your fave/site then paste it were it says EDIT ME. It would be a good idea to get your self some HTML books there's plenty available on line or in shops just to help you along a bit or just learn as you go along. Now for photo's there is a few ways to do this I will tell you one way to do this download free here's Link and you will also need this link also free i will try to make this as easy as i can. First after your registered with the above go to Picasa click on the photo you'd like to post and view now go to bottom right and hit BLOGGER. this will bring up hallo pop-up menu put in your password then select BLOGGERBOT then it send then you have one more chance to name your picture or story when your finished here hit send......Done Now a pop-up of your blog will appear with the knew posting on there. This is optional go to the top right of the page and hit Get Your Own Blog then hit chance Settings then Posting then Edit Posts now pick the post you want to edit first in the list is the last posted when it comes up you can every thing from Fonts.Add another picture to this post or check spelling or just chance the heading of the the picture or you could do more advanced stuff in the HTML part but that comes with experience when you learn HTML you can make things a lot more easily by adding some basic codes to your template like click on photo and its gos strait to edit (no one else will be able to do this just you) hope this helps you get started as I'm no expert i just picked it up as i went along but if you have any questions just leave a message and i will see what i can do |
