Blog Tutorial - How To Leave A Comment

Thank you to everyone who has left a post in the past on my Blog - it is great to know that people out there are dialing in regularly and enjoy the content they are seeing! For others, I hear comments all the time (in person) that you love the Blog but you don't know how to leave a comment - this tutorial is for you! I know that Blogging may be new to many of you so hopefully these instructions help:

Step 1: For each post, you'll see a message at the very bottom of the post that looks something like this:

Posted by Lisa Burns at 9:36 PM 1 comments

Step 2: To leave a post, simply click on the '1 comments' link

Step 3: The next screen will show you all the comments for that particular post but will also have a box on the right hand side of the screen where you can leave your own comment. Type whatever you'd like in the comment box

Step 4: The next step asks you to choose an identity and gives you the following options: Your Name (if you are already a blogger and have a blog id); Other and finally, Anonymous. If you have a blogger id, you can choose that option but most of you may prefer to simply select the 'anonymous' option

Step 5: That's it! You can preview your message if you want before clicking on Publish Your Comment.

Important - Some of you may be worried that your name will appear, or worse yet, your email information. It will NOT show! Even if you leave a comment as a blogger, it will show your blogger name. If you leave a comment as anonymous, it will show as anonymous. Some people will sign their comment so that I know who left it. An example would be 'Lisa B'.

Comments may take a few minutes to view on the blog so don't be too worried if you don't see your comment right away!

Thanks for taking the time to review these instructions - I hope it encourages those that haven't tried the comment option - to try it :o) I would love to hear from those that are viewing my blog...feedback, requests, questions, comments on samples is always WELCOMED!!
