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
