How to Add Documents to Blogger with Scribd

Add documents to your Blogger account with Scribd.

You cannot add documents directly to your Blogger blog, but you can use a free third-party site like Scribd and link to your public documents to share them with the world. Scribd will let you upload .txt, .pdf and .doc documents to your account. This is great if you are a writer and want to give away free samples of your work on your social networking blog. It may seem confusing at first, but with a few simple steps, you can share your documents.

Things You'll Need

• Blogger account
• Scribd account

1. Open your web browser and go to the Scribd homepage (see References).

2. Click "Upload" on the Scribd page. Browse your computer for the document you wish to upload. Upload the document.

3. Fill in your email address when you are finished and confirm your account with Scribd.

4. Log in to your Blogger account while you have your Scribd page open in another tab.

5. Click on the document on the Scribd page that you wish to add to your Blogger page. Copy the URL.

6. Put the URL code anywhere on your Blogger page that you want to let your readers find your document. All they have to do is follow the link and they can get to your document on Scribd and download it for free.
