How to Make Your Own Blog (on Blogger)

Hello peeps! I have heard from some of my followers that because of my blog, they would like to create a blog of their own! And some of them already have (*hint* I'll be recommending some of their blogs in future posts)! But, from experience, I know sometimes making a blog is confusing, especially if you have no information whatsoever on how to make a blog in the first place! So, here is where I'll help. This blog post is all about blog making :). Below, I have steps on how to make your own blog! Have fun!




How to Make Your Own Blog


Step 1: Make a Google account
If you already have a Google account, skip to the next step. If you don't have a Google account,  Click here to be taken to Gmail to create one.




Step 2: Go to Blogger
Because you have your own Google account, you now have your own Blogger account! Isn't that nice? To get to Blogger, Click here. There, it will ask you whether you would like to have your blog with Google Plus or sign up with a Blogger account. Personally, I think it is nice to have the account separate from my Google Plus account, but Google says that it is easier to share your blog posts and gain followers if you have your blog with your Google Plus account. You can decide for yourself :). Click which one you want and it should take you to another page.




Step 3: Make Your Blog
On the next page you're delivered to, it should have an arrow pointing to a "New Blog" button. Click on the "New Blog" button. There, you should see a pop-up that will ask for your Blog title, blog address, and Blog template. Below, I'll explain what those mean:


Blog title: This will be what your blog is called. When people go to your blog, this will be the first thing they see. Preferably, your blog title should be the same as the blog address. It doesn't have to be that way, but it's easier that way. Also, your blog title should be creative and express who you are and what you'll be talking about in your blog.


Blog address: This will be what people will type in to get to your blog, otherwise known as the web address. As I mentioned above, it's easier and simpler of you use your Blog Title in your Blog address. An example of this would be my blog. The Blog Title is Azziness and the blog address is www.azziness.blogspot.com


Those are the steps on making your blog! It's pretty easy! On a side note, the computer I did it on was a PC. I don't know if Macs have a different version, but if they do, these steps may be a little off. Sorry :(. Soon, I'll post tips on how to begin posting on your blogs and tips on how to perfect your blog so it shows who you are and attracts readers! Comment below if you'd like me to clarify some of the steps or if you used these steps to make a blog of your own, I'd love to take a look at it! I hope this post helps! ~Azzi~
