Welcome! Getting started...

Blogging tips for beginners:

 

First, you’ll need to respond to the email invitation you get from Blogger which will give you permission to post to the blog. 

 

Blogger actually has some helpful documents you can check out if you need more guidance on getting started with blogging, but here are some quick tips:

To write a new post:

1. Make sure you are signed in (click sign-in at the top right side of the page)
2. Click on “New Post,” also on the top right side of the page
3. This will bring you to a new screen.
4. Type your post’s title in the box marked “Title”
5. Then post the body of your response in the large white box. You can also type up your response in Microsoft Word and simply cut and paste it in. (That’s how I am writing this post.)
6. To insert a link, type the text you want to be displayed as a link, then click on the little button that says “Link.”
7. This will bring up a pop-up box. Paste or copy the URL of the site you want to link to into that box.
8. Inserting a picture is a similar process. You can either upload a picture or link to a picture elsewhere.
9. When you are all done, click “Publish Post” (the orange box below the big white box).

That’s it! Have fun!
