Post so maybe you want to put it out tomorrow or next week you can always do that and keep things on a schedule you can adjust the permalink  this is going to be the link the URL for your individual blog posts you can use an automatic or create a custom one here I'll go through that as I set up this blog post you canHow to Create a Blogger Blog with a Custom Domain Name Step-By-Step Blogger Tutorial For Beginners part 2 adjust location I'm not gonna change location here you can adjust the location of where you're writing this blog post and if we come down here to options the three main options here is you can allow or don't allow reader comments you can just adjust that here if you'd like to in compose mode you have  mode you have HTML mode if you have HTML written in compose mode you can either choose to interpret the type HTML  set up something here like strong and then sample HTML strong this is the code for making your text bold what you're gonna see here is if I do show HTML little literally then it will just show this in the blog post if I say interpret typed HTML it's gonna make this strong in the blog post you don't really need to worry about that too much but if you are trying to write a blog post about different HTML this is where you would adjust that or if you just want to make sure that blogger interprets the HTML and just post it right to the page you don't have any of these tags showing in your blog post anyone  to click this one here now line breaks there's BR tags so B R stands for breaks you'll see that right here that's another HTML tag so if you come here and do break then that's gonna set your line to a new line you can either choose the break tag or just using enter for line breaks so in that case you would just come here click on enter twice if you type in something here like line break then you know that there's gonna be a space between this sample HTML at the top and the line break so just some different options that you have we're gonna click on done for now I'm just gonna get rid of this tag so that's the main thing over here on post settings now when you're done with a post what you want to do is click on publish here you can always preview your posts at any time you can also save your blog post so if I come over here to post site title what we'll do is my first blog post now the two different options you can write in our compose or HTML so if I come here to compose the benefit of using compose is if you do type something like my first blog post example what I can do is I can take this text right here maybe I want to make it bold you could just do that makes it a  easier and

easier and then if we come over here to HTML you're gonna see it's gonna have so this uses the B tag and more it's a strong tag same exact thing it's both gonna be bold your text now this is gonna be the HTML you see you don't have nearly as many options here you can do the same thing with bold in HTML you don't have the option for some of these other things up here you can see here in compose you can kind of add in video you can insert special characters you can set up jump breaks here you can adjust the alignment if you come over to HTML you can't do as many of those things over here now I generally write in HTML because I just think it makes it easier you can always jump back and forth between compose and HTML as you're writing your first blog post we're gonna come back over here to compose I just want to go through a few of the different things that you can do I'm just gonna write sample text right here and go through each of these little options here first one is  you can always undo what you just did so if you have a change that you made you want to undo that change you can usually undo or redo it as you are creating your blog post very helpful if you accidentally delete some text or something like that now if we come over here this is gonna be font you can change your font we'll come here change it you can just adjust your font right here next is gonna be text size so right here is just text size so normal large largest you can adjust your text size as you're writing you can come over here  you're gonna see there's headings subheadings and minor headings and normal so if you're just writing normal text you could just keep it right here now if I come over here I do heading we take this we do a heading it's gonna make it larger it's gonna put some space between the text so if we come over here and do subheading we're gonna come here we can do this subheading here so as you're creating blog posts you can use headings subheadings and even minor headings to kind of go over  different details as you're writing so if for example the main thing that you're writing about so if it's gonna be your first blog post your heading here would probably be my first blog post or something along those lines now the other things over here this is italic underline  so any of these different things you can adjust your text easily you can do underlines you can do strike so all those different examples you can do here you could just easily click on those buttons and set up your text differently you can change your text color so if you want to change your text color obviously that makes it a hard to read you can do all this it's going to show at you're writing your blog post anything that you do here is gonna show on your page as you have your blog post published you can always preview these changes over time but if you're changing anything here you can do text background color maybe I want to have background color we'll do orange  you can see when I publish 's gonna look like this in my blogger post we'll get rid of this here we'll just come over here and just keep it as white now the next thing is gonna be link so if we come here to sample text we do a link it's gonna take that sample text right here we can link to a web address or an email address so let's just say I do surf side PPC com you can test this link if you need to you can open the link in a new window so that people keep your website open and open  attribute so that tells Google don't crawl this link for my page you can add that if you'd like to you can click on learn more here if you want to learn more about different attributes for your link but if I just keep this like this click on OK now when someone comes to this page and then click on sample text they're gonna go to my website you can also change this and make sure you do have HTTPS if that's the way the website is set up you know we just come up and copy and paste a link so if I come over to my website and let's just say I want to link to my own website copy this link come over here and just paste this link and what would you be just like that  you can click on OK and now anytime someone clicks on this link it's gonna go to that separate page the next thing is gonna be inserting an image so if we come down here even more we insert an image you can insert images from your blog from your Google album archive from your phone from your webcam or from a URL so if I click on upload here we'll just upload an image I'll just upload the  PPC logo for now we'll click on this image after you upload it you want to click on it click on add selected you can upload multiple images if you want to then you're gonna have it there now you can change the size here by clicking on the image and doing small large medium and then what you want to do is come over here to properties you always want to enter alt text for your images this tells Google what the image is so if I come here and say surf side PPC logo then Google knows that this image is the surf side PPC logo you can also do the same thing in title text you don't have to do title text alt text is used for Google to understand what the image is if I put an image there of the beach then what I can do here in alt text is just type in beach of the beach or just beach anything like that Google is gonna have an understanding of what that photo is you always want to use image properties here and click on OK you can adjust the size here you can adjust the alignment it's really easy to kind of upload and manage your images now we're gonna keep coming down and what we want to do is if you see here I can type alongside this image if I use the left alignment so that's just something that you can do so text alongside image okay we're gonna keep scrolling down obviously it's gonna be a really ugly bug blog post I'll create a couple more just so you can understand the different types of blog posts you can create this is really just going over all these different things under the post section you really need to understand all these it helps to know all of them as you're setting up your first blog post this is really the main part of blogger so if we come over here next is gonna be to insert a video so if you click here you can insert one directly from YouTube from your own YouTube videos you can upload a video you have three different options there okay I'm gonna do from YouTube and I just typed in Google Ads I'll just take in one of my videos that I created recently seven  search keyword targeting best practices I'll click on enter it's gonna put this YouTube video directly into our blog post now you can adjust the way this looks so one of the things we can do is come over to HTML now you're gonna see HTML doesn't really look as good as the composed portion  you're gonna see all these different codes here these align breaks it's gonna have some bold text so a lot of different things going on here but as we scroll down you can see that our YouTube video is down here embedded and what we can do is come here and adjust the width and the height so let's just take the width we'll double it okay so one from 320 to 640 and let's just take the height we'll put it up to 400 now we can come back over here to compose you can see it's gonna look a  better over here with our video you can adjust all that by going to HTML it makes it a  easier to kind of adjust the way your videos gonna look we're gonna keep scrolling down now the next thing is going to be to insert special characters you can see there's all these different characters here you're probably not going to use is that often you can draw a symbol here search by keyword if easier to kind of adjust the way your videos gonna look we're gonna keep scrolling down now the next thing is going to be to insert special characters you can see there's all these different characters here you're probably not going to use is that often you can draw a symbol here search by keyword if you're looking for something like an arrow maybe you're looking for some of these different triangles or things that are pointing towards specific texts or images that you have you can use those here you can look by different symbols and numbers and modifiers you can kind of look at a lot of different options here ultimately I don't really use special characters that often if you do need to use them in your blog post this is where you would do that now the next thing here is gonna be to insert a jump break we're gonna click here to insert a jump break you're gonna see there's gonna be a break in the page we'll just do jump break we'll be able to see that as we publish this blog post now you can see right now I have Center alignment so if you want to adjust your alignment what you can do is just take the text that you want to adjust you can copy it or if you're just on this one line you can just click right Ladies
