Step by Step Blogging

How to Create your Group Blog



Log in to Blogger.com.  You must have a Gmail account to be able to open a Blogger account. When you have signed-in, create your blog name.  Check availability of your chosen name. If availalble, click continue, if not, try another name (try and try until you succeed).

Ok, after that pick a basic template (you can change and customize it later). You can add your pics and other designs in the DESIGN tab later.
After successfully registering your blog, go to "Edit Blog" and then click on the "Design" tab to begin customizing your blog.

Click "Add a Gadget" and pick "Pages" so that we can have one button on our blog that contains all Pages (which will contain your Profiles).
There are a lot of gadgets available for you. You can start adding them on your blog now to make it more interesting.

Next step is to add your individual profiles. Go to "Posting" tab and below choose "Edit Pages".
Click, "New Page" and start creating a profile for each member of your group. Don't forget to add your individual photos on the very beginning of each profile.
After that, edit your Group information in "About Me" Page.  Go back to Design and edit "About Me".


Instead of "About Me" write "About Us" because your blog is a group blog.  Put information about your group members or anything you would like people to know about your blog.

Click Save.

Then click "View Blog" to preview what you have done so far.

I will check your preliminary outputs either TUE or THU depending on our University's internet connection. It will be graded. See you in class!
