Setting up a blog1. Choose a blog hosting site such as Blogger. Most blog sites are free and are
very easy to use.2. Come up with a unique name for your blog. Think of something that sums up
what you will be writing about on your blog. The blog website will tell you whether your name is available or not.
3. Think of a theme for your blog. You can write about personal issues, create poetry and short stories, deliver opinions or a combination of all of these topics.
4. Write in your blog frequently. You do not have to update it every hour or even every day, but try to update it at least a few times a week. Blogging is a tool that can relieve stress and may improve creativity.
5. Post the link to your blog on your website. Send it to friends or keep it private if you do not want anyone to read the content.
