Creating Posts

Click “Create” under the “Posting” tab. Give your post a title and begin typing in the white text box. As you type, use the quick buttons on top to format your text, create a bulleted list or center a paragraph. Clink on the preview button to check how the posting will look on your blog. When you’re done, click “Publish,” and your post will appear as the latest entry in your blog.

For your digital portfolio, you will need at least three posts:

  1. Home: Greet visitors here and tell them how to navigate your site.
  2. About Me or Resume: List your work experience or post your resume here.
  3. Clips: Create links to your print, audio or video clips.
Additional posts could include links to your personal Blog or a page listing references. If you would like your portfolio to look active, consider adding an RSS feed -- from your personal Blog or your favorite news site. Visit this site for more information on RSS feeds.

Hint: Make sure to create your "Home" post last. Blogger shows your most recent post first. If you post your "Home" post last, you will ensure that your personal greeting is the first thing that visitors see.
