How to Make a Blog!! :)

If you are inspired by Brookeyy Cookie Planet :) :) then why not create your OWN blog? Wanna try it? Then follow my next 10-STEPS! instructions :)


1. Decisions, decisions.


Firstly, you'll need to decide what your blog is going to be about. Sport? Celebrity Gossip? It's up to YOU! Maybe you'd like to do a blog for your school! It's completely up to you!




2. Pick a site.


Now you'll need to find a blog creator website to join up with. I'm with Blogger, because it is really easy to do. Blogger is also a Google product, so that in a way comforts me a bit more. Once you have chosen your site you'll need to sign up with it. If you do pick blogger then you will need to make a Google account, if you don't already have one.


3. Naming.


You are now at the stage where you need to pick a name for your blog. Maybe rhyme it with your name? Or combine two of the main things your blog is about to create a single word! Maybe write down a list of your name ideas and get your family and friends to say which they prefer.


4. Layout and Template.


So, you've chosen a site and you've thought up a name. Now it is time to choose a design for your blog, now you have to create your blogs image. Your background and template could be based on your blog topic.




5. Posts.


Time for your first post! Sign into your account and write your first article, obviously about which topic you chose. If say your theme was sport, then you could write about a major sporting event that has recently happened, or how close the Olympics are getting. If you chose fashion though, you could write about latest trends and cool celebrity outfits.


6. Advertising.


If you have Facebook or Twitter then you could make a page or post about your blog. If not, you could always just spread the word, and ask your friends to check out your blog.


7. Improvement.


If you have had people checking out your blog then ask them what they thought of it, to see if you need any improvement here and there. After all, the public's views are always important! :) :)


8. Speak Up!


If you have had people checking out your blog that you can't ask face to face, then why not post a post or message asking them for any post requests?


9. Better and better.


As time goes on, you will need to start raising the standard bar on you blog. Maybe make the posts more challenging to write? If you improve lots then hey!- you'll start to look like a pro :) :)


10. ENJOY YOURSELF!!


Don't just drone on and on and on about your subject! You need to sound chatty and make your blog fun to read. To do this, just have fun writing your blog! If you do it as some kind of chore then you may as well not bother. Enjoy writing your articles!! :) :)


Hope this helps! :)
