Please consider these ideas. You can choose to have a domain name such as\u00a0http:\/\/www.blog31days.com or you might prefer to use a company&#8217;s blog such as\u00a0your name.wordpress.com.<\/p>\n<p>One is a paid website and the other is a free website. \u00a0There is more flexibility with a paid website and there are often limitations with a free website. \u00a0You can always use a free website and change to a paid website. \u00a0To participate in Blog 31 Days you will need a platform for sharing your work and a website will do the trick! \u00a0Decide which website type you will use. \u00a0If you already have a blog, you&#8217;re good to go.<\/p>\n<p>2. <strong>What to name your blog.<\/strong> The most effective blog names are those relevant to your drum beat(What do you love?) \u00a0and something short and simple. \u00a0If you&#8217;re bent on writing about animals, choose an animal name or focus. \u00a0Say you enjoy sewing, then figure our some catchy &#8220;Nit and Stitch&#8221; type name. You may enjoy inspirational writings and you could select a name such as &#8220;Jesus My Heart&#8221;. Whatever you choose, be sure that you focus on your &#8220;main&#8221; love so that you can zero in on that focussed area for writing. Keep it simple and short if possible.<\/p>\n<p>3. <strong>You&#8217;ll need a topic and name<\/strong> for the \u201cblog31day\u201d article you\u2019re writing. \u00a0We have chosen 3 categories for our bloggers. \u00a0You will list your article under &#8220;one&#8221; of those categories. \u00a0Your article should have a name that is catchy, interesting and that will lure folks to your blog. \u00a0Think carefully about what you will name your blog article. I&#8217;m thinking about an article such as: \u00a0&#8220;<em>10 Things Every Blogger Should Do&#8221;<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>4. <strong>How to link with others will be \u201cyuge!\u201d<\/strong> Also, you\u2019ll need a thumb-sized logo or<strong> blog button (optional)<\/strong>\u00a0 To create a blog button of 125 x 125 you may choose canvas for <em><strong>FREE\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>or for $5.00, you could let someone else do this for you on &#8220;Fiver&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>This button will be used to link up with others. \u00a0In order to link with others and have your work show up among the other bloggers, you will &#8220;link up&#8221;. \u00a0Be sure to practice this before the link goes live. \u00a0CLICK HERE \u00a0for \u00a0more information.<\/p>\n<p>5. <strong>Having a place in your home that is designated for you to blog<\/strong> will be paramount. It should be away from the noise and movement of things going on. It should be comfortable and a place where there is little distraction. \u00a0A writing desk, corner, office or quiet spot is very important if you&#8217;re going to be a dedicated blogger for 31 days. \u00a0As it is, life happens so be sure to set yourself up in a blogging-type environment.<\/p>\n<p>6. <strong>Creating a folder in your computer and naming it \u201cBlog 31 Days-3\/ 2020\u201d will help<\/strong> you focus on the task at hand. This will be a place to gather all of your writings. \u00a0Name and date this folder.<\/p>\n<p>Disclaimer-(*Some of our links are 3rd party and affiliate links)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you for visiting our Blog 31 Days \u201cTips and Tricks\u201d section.
