Xomba logo

A blog is an online journal, it can be as in depth as you would like and does not have to be personal in nature. You can include your pictures and videos. Creating and maintaining a blog on Xomba is quick, easy and fun. Read on for how to create a Xomba blog of your very own.

Things You'll Need

• Computer
• Internet
• Topic

Instructions

1. Create a Xomba account for yourself by following the steps on your screen. The link is found within this article to help you create an account.

2. Develop a meaningful, catchy username (nickname) that represents yourself or your business. You will not want to use a first and last name as it is safer to remain somewhat anonymous.

3. 

   Set up your account profile with as much information as you would like. If you set a picture or icon for yourself, it does not have to be of yourself. It can be of anything as long as it is considered "family-friendly."

4. Familiarize yourself with the FAQ and also click on the purple alien on the right in case you need help or have any questions. These both function as "help" sections on Xomba.

5. Set Xomba to email you in your regular email address when there are replies to posts. This may become cumbersome, so you are able to turn off this feature if needed.

6. Set up a Google Adsense account to work with Xomba if you wish to make money on advertising and links on your posts. This is optional and not required to have a Xomba blog.

7. Make friends with other Xomba users who have similar interests and comment on their articles on a regular basis.

8. Begin writing your blog. You may use several different topics each week, including recipes.

9. Upload your photos and videos if you have some available. This is not required, but adds to the appeal of your Xomba blog.

10. Visit Xomba to see who has commented on your profile, articles, photos or videos.

Tips & Warnings

• Give it time to gain an audience. Sometimes it can take several months before you develop regular "readers."

• Set up links to your Xomba blogs on other websites that you are on.

• Choose a password that is tough to guess.

• Keep in mind, Xombytes are longer entries while Xomblurbs are brief entries of a couple hundred words or less, with a link at the bottom (optional).

• Do not forget to place tags about your topic separated by commas. This will help others to find your articles when they do a search.

• Do not use last names on any site on the Internet.

• Be cautious about what photos you post, if any.

• Do not make friends with anyone who will make you feel uncomfortable or is a spammer.

• Do not post work or confidential material on any blog.
