Homestead Free Blog Sites

Hey there,

Creating a blog is soooooooooo, simple, free and easy to set up!

Homestead doesn't have a free blog site creating tool yet but that's fine,
you'll just need to point the page to the blog address you create.

I made "this" blog with Blogger.com (a Google product).
It's supper easy and you can have your first blog up in about 10 min. (if that)

  • You first choose the name you want (click to see if it's available)
  • Chooses the style template you want
  • and your ready to make your first post
For example:

I wanted Homestead Sitebuilder Tips it was available and now the link that it created looks like this http://homesteadsitebuildertips.blogspot.com/ (blogspot & blogger are one in the same)


Pointing to your new blog is easy with a Homestead website made with Sitebuilder,

Just highlight the text to create a link:





And then past the link to your new blog in the following window:




That is unless of course you're using the navigation tool as a menu option,
then...

Open the navigation editor.




Click the link tab.



Go through step one:



Now if you should be building a website with Homestead but wanting to registering a domain name elsewhere; say at GoDaddy (after all, it is about $15 a year cheaper),

I'll be making a video showing you how to forward you domain to your blog next, so stay tuned.

If you haven't done so yet, check out my free video where I show you how to dominate the front page of Google (EVEN A COUPLE PAGES DEEP)
