Blogging

If you are here reading this post - it is with one intended purpose - and that is to learn to create, and to create a blog of your own, on which to include your thoughts and opinions on matters you feel are important.
__________________________________________________________________________________

•The first step to creating a blog is to identify your specific needs and abilities; some blogs are extremely friendly with step by step aid, while other blogs may require the use of HTML coding or other Internet Savvy techniques.
_____________
•The second step is to then register an account, for the purpose of this lesson please use this link.
-The page will load opening to a home page, there is a bright orange button saying Create A Blog.
-Clicking this will lead you to an internet form, think of an internet form as a paper file such as when you change doctors. It's meant to get the information it needs from you in an efficient and concise manner.
_____________
•After having opened the link to your internet form it will ask you for information including, but not limited to, your email and the password with which you would like to use to log into the Blogger account you are creating.
_____________
Fields Required:
Email Address: The email that will be playing host to this account and its notification emails
Enter A Password: The password that will be protecting this account, for security it requires 8 characters and a mix of letters and numbers are best
Display Name: Think like a signature at the end of a letter, it is the name which your posts will be attributed to.
Word Verification: An attempt to prevent computer based scams from registering on their site, it's trivial but required. If you have issue reading it there is an Audio version with the link placed to the bottom right side. (If the image does not load, check your Adobe Flash Player to ensure it is up to date)
Acceptance of Terms: The terms outline that you agree not to use their site to host or organize illegal actions and that you abide by all internet laws. You may read their Terms here.

•Finally click the bottom link overlayed with an Orange Arrow saying "Continue"

This concludes the registration portion of this guide, listed directly after this will be the creation portion of a blog.
