How to Create a Blog on Blogger
Step 1
The first step to creating your own blog for language learning is to go to Blogger.com. You will need to create an account if you don't have a Gmail account already. It is easy and takes seconds.
Step 2
The next step is a little more complicated. You will need to create a title and address for your blog. The title should be related to your field of study or the thing that you expect to be writing about most. If you are not sure what topic you want to blog about, consider creating a title and address related to your name. If your name is "Helen," name your blog Helen's Blog (title) at helens-blog.blogspot.com (address). You will also have to choose a template. Choose something simple because this part is easy to change later.
Step 3
Once you have created your blog title and address, click "New post" under the word "My blogs" on the left. If your blog is in another language you can change the language setting here by clicking the "cog" icon in the top right.
Step 4
When you click "New post" you will see a blank page. Give your blog post a title, like "About Me" and write something about who you are and what you do. Click "Save" and "Publish" on the right and click "View blog" on the left. Now, you are a blogger.
Step 5
You can leave your first blog post as it is, but serious writers look for feedback on their writing. Copy your first blog post and paste it into the VirtualWritingTutor.com and click "Check grammar" to see if it can detect any errors. If there are errors in your text, the VirtualWritingTutor will show you how to correct them.
Step 6
Simply edit your post, make the necessary corrections, and click "Update." Now, you are ready to promote your blog.
