Tips & Warnings
If you have many scanned images and photos to add to your blog, you may want to create additional folders to sort your materials. For example, you could create a folder for each child or one for each month.
Never assume that your images and journal entries are safe on the web. You should create frequent backups of your blog entries to ensure that you do not lose information if the blog's website crashes. Consult with your blog service provider to learn the best way to create a backup.
