So this is to all you experienced bloggers out there. For some reason, I am having a really hard time figuring out how to get a list of links to my friends' blogs on my blog. Could someone please tell me the secret?
Sure thing! 1. Click "customize" in the top right hand corner of your blog. It should bring up a page that says "Add and remove page elements" 2. There will be some dark tan boxes on the left side of the page. Click the blue "add a page element" link at the top of the boxes. 3. A pop up window will appear with page elements to choose from. Select link list by clicking on the blue "add to blog" button underneath it. 4. It will take you to a "configure link list" window. Enter a title (friends and family or blogging buddies...whatever you want. In the New Site URL box write down the web address to the blog you wish to place a link to (www.farawaynelson.blogspot.com), and then in the New site Name box write what wording will appear on your blog to show the link (Adam and Laura or The Bestest Friends Ever or The Coolest People We Know or The Nelsons or ...well, you get the idea)! Click the "add link" button. Continue adding links. 5. Click SAVE CHANGES 6. It will then take you back to the layout page. You can drag the link list box up and down the left side to decide where you want it placed on your blog (before your "picture" or after your "about me"...where ever). 7. IMPORTANT!!! Be sure to click the orange "save" button on the layout page. I have learned from experience that if you do not do this, you will be upset and have to spend extra time at the computer repeating what you've already done.
Call me if you have any questions or just call to let me know you care! :)
