How To Create Blog
Creating or designing blog is very easy and somehow technical. Why it's easy is that you can create blog without technical skills and why it's somehow technical is that in some settings you need to be technically advanced to promote and work on search engine optimization (SEO). However, blog can be seen as a website which contains online personal reflections, opinions, comments; writings, photographs, videos etc. Though one can create blog on many platforms like; Blogger, WordPress.org, Wix, WordPress.com, Tumblr, Medium, Squarespace, Joomla, Ghost, Weebly.
But our major concern here is blogger. How to create blogs with blogger. Blogger as we all know is a blog-publishing service which permits multi-user blogs with time-stamped entries. It was developed by Pyra Labs, which was purchased by Google in 2003. The blogs are hosted generally by Google at a subdomain of blogspot.com. Relatively, blogs can also be hosted in the registered custom domain of the blogger. Blogger also permits its users to use their own domain free of charge unlike WordPress that charges about $13 to use a custom domain.
Now lets create a unique blogger blog with blogspot.com subdomain. Read carefully so as to get all the processes. Here are the detailed and chronological processes.
Note you must have Gmail account before creating your blogger blog.
- Boot your computer or phone, go to your browsing section, use either; Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, UC Browser, or Opera Mini, then type Blogger.com, something like this image will display below.
- Then click at the 'CREATE YOUR BLOG' and something like this will display below so as to enter your Gmail account;
- Carefully enter your Gmail account and click at 'NEXT' and something like this will display below for you to enter your password;
- Carefully enter your password, then click at 'NEXT' and have something like this displayed below;
- Here you are given two options for blog creation. Now, is either you create your blog through Google+ Profile or through limited Blogger Profile. Please don't be confused with the options provided because whichever one you choose is proper and you can also make changes whenever the blog is created. Google+ Profile means that as you are creating your blog you will also create your Google+ account immediately and this will allow you to have access and be seen on Google platforms with the name you used on Gmail. Limited Blogger Profile means that you have the capacity to customize your identity which will display to your blog readers. This profile will make you to change the name you have already registered on Gmail. Now I choose to proceed and create the blog through Google+ Profile. Now click at 'Create a Google+ profile' and this will display below:
- As this displayed, now click at 'Create Profile'. Don't set anything because you will later set it on Google+. Just click at 'Create Profile' and you will have this displayed below:
- Now click at 'SAVE' and this will display below:
- At this stage click at 'Continue to Blogger' and have this displayed below:
- Now click at 'CREATE NEW BLOG' and this will display below:
Here, you are expected to provide the unique name you want your blog to bear, the exact name you would wish people to identify you with on web and get you; that is your Uniform Resource Locators (URLs). Though the name (URLs) would be supported with blogspot.com subdomain until you purchase your own custom domain. Now lets proceed. At the space of 'Title' type the title of your blog. For instance, if your want your blog name (URLs) to be (www.stannaija.blogspot.com) you then type in the 'Title' space (Stannaija) and type in the 'Address' space (stannaija.blogspot.com). You now proceed to 'Theme' space and select any theme you want, which you will later change when you become perfect. So if you enter all these correctly and blogger didn't accept your 'Title' and 'Address' please choose another name (URLs), re-enter it until you are accepted by blogger.
When you are finally accepted, please click at 'Create blog' located at the down-right side of the picture above and have your blog created. After clicking at 'Create blog' you will see your new blog appears like this image below:
Congratulations you have successfully created your blog. You can now set it to your choice. Now go to another section of the browser and type your name (URLs) and see your blog.
