Guidelines On How To Setup A Toronto Fashion Blog

By Casandra Newton


The word 'blog' is an abbreviation for what was known as a weblog that is a web based journal where individuals publish their opinions and thoughts on the net. Now that you have decided to start your own Toronto fashion blog you will not only have fun while doing it, you will as well find how simple it is. There are plenty of blogging hosts available as well as plenty of templates galleries and the best thing is all these are free to start.

Before starting sit down and think about whether you want to concentrate on general trends or focus on a certain niche. Think of the blog-site as a personal diary only that it is public where you can share ideas on whatever gets your fancy and you are passionate about. Whatever the type of content you decide make sure that it is one that you never get tired talking about and are willing to share as much information as possible.

It is now time to consider names that best describe the message you are trying to put across to your reader, the name should be easy to remember. It is best if you have more than one name in mind, as you can never be sure if one of the a hundred million bloggers had thought of that name too. With names all ready, you can search and settle for a blogging provider site that appeals to you, the steps of setting up your site are somewhat the same in all these providers.

Once on the provider's site, you will most likely a link that says 'get started' and create an account. Enter the first name you had chosen to use in the address field and the host will do an automated quick look up to check if the name already exists. If it does, you will be presented with a host of other derivatives from the name that you can use, if you do not like what is suggested use your second option name and do this until successful.

Based on the assumption that this is the first time you are registering any site with the provider, you will then proceed to a form where you enter your details like email and names. Check your email for a mail from the provider asking you to confirm your registration details by clicking on a web address provided. This opens a new window with the provider and you will be asked to sign in to your account to proceed.

In the owner's control panel, you will have the option of choosing from numerous templates. You may customize these templates by adding your own articles, pictures and other details that make your blogsite unique. If not satisfied with the theme you have selected do not worry as you can later on change to a better one without having to change any information already published.

Fill in all the blanks like the site name, theme chosen as well as your profile. This allows people to learn more about you and your interests. In the profile, you are allowed to put info like name, images, and interests among others.

Now that your Toronto fashion blog is set up, write a couple of posts to test and learn how to use it. Make a decision whether the site should be public or private. The last step is to publish and promote your site by use of email and or social media websites.
