The Hello Bar is a simple notification bar that engages users and communicates a call to action.

Welcome!

Welcome to Blogging Basics 101!  We’ve had this idea brewing for months, and we’re excited to send it out into Blog Land. 

Basically, this idea grew out of the private e-mails we were receiving from the readers of our personal blogs.  There’s much for a beginning blogger to learn, and there didn’t seem to be a simple, user-friendly place to go and learn the basics. 

Now there is!

We’ve started by addressing several basic blogging questions.  You can click through the categories on the left and browse to your heart’s content.  We will be updating this site often with new blogging tips, so check back often.  If you have a question you’d like to see answered, check here.

If you like what you see, tell your friends about us!

By the way, if there are any BlogAds account holders out there, we’d like to add that to our site, if any of you would be willing to issue an invitation.  Remember, you will receive 5% of our ad revenue, per your BlogAds agreement.

    Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou for doing this blog!!! I ALWAYS have questions about something! Now, with this, I’ll have easy access to the answers! I was reading one of my favorite blogs- It’s All For The Best, and Heather posted about something big that was going to happen at 12:01 a.m. Well, that got my curiousity roused and so I HAD to come see what was going on :) Thanks ya’ll, this is GREAT!

  4. Heather L. says:

    Can I tell you just how THIRLLED I am that you’ve done this? I am a blogging baby (started October 31) and I always have questions. Usually, I Google it and many things I have just figured out on my own. Now, I have somewhere to go to find out “in layman’s terms”. Thanks so much! (And thatnk to Sam above for the mention!) :o )

  5. Brad says:

    The unveiling lived up to the hype (well mostly). This is a great idea. I’ve added you to our site’s blogroll as well as created a button in the sidebar.

  6. Dana says:

    For some reason my e-mail to your bloggingbasics@gmail.com is not going through. The answer to the question I would like to see is what exactly it means to “tag” someone…and how to do it!! Thank you.

  7. Ami says:

    Excellent idea! Thanks, ladies!

  8. boomama says:

    BRAVO, girls!

    Everything looks great – and I know this is going to be a huge help to people.

  9. Kilikina says:

    What a great idea. I’m going to have to come back and read through ALL of this.

    Just a note, or question. I can’t add you to bloglines, it says there is no feed and I don’t know how to do it via the “click here to subscribe” b/c it tries to open something…

  10. Janelle says:

    What a great idea for a blog! I’ve already had some questions answered-I’m still pretty new. I’m adding this to my blogroll (per the etiquette, I’m letting you know) since my readers are mostly non-blogger family.

  11. Pamela says:

    I’ll be back

  12. Gem says:

    You need an RSS feed! I’d love to subcribe, but Google reader says there’s no feed.

  13. Gem says:

    OK, let me clarify now that I looked more closely. I clicked on your Subscribe link, and tried to use that page in Google Reader, it still didn’t work. Not sure what’s up, you might check your feed to see if it’s working properly.

  14. Oh my goodness, this is just what I’ve needed! I can’t wait to pick y’all’s brains — thank you!

  15. Jennifer says:

    I heart this blog! I am a beginner and love this information. Not only can you ask questions, but there’s stuff on here I have never even heard of before. Thanks!

  16. Great job! Thank you!

  17. This is a fantastic idea, and I think I will really benefit from it! Thank you so much!

  18. Kelly says:

    Fantastic idea!

  19. sprittibee says:

    Love the cool site. I’ll have to remember to add you to my blogroll for the “Techie Blog” section of my sidebar. What a nice idea. I wrote a blog design post a while back, but this is really over the top! I know I could have used it a year and a half ago! I stayed up many a wee-morning-hour with bloodshot eyes looking up every little blog term in google! Ha! Some of us have to learn the hard way.

  20. julie says:

    Ok, my head may explode because I have been reading everything and learned things I didn’t know I didn’t know. thanks so much, I will be bakc.

  21. Brad says:

    Believe it or not, there’s an RSS feed somewhere on the site. I was able to click by “Subscribe with Bloglines” and it’s picking up a feed.

  22. Kim says:

    I just wanted to say this is a wonderful site, well done.
    Kim

  23. The RSS seems to be working for me too in Google Reader. There’s a link on the left sidebar.

    The last two links in the “who we are” post on the other hand don’t work FYI.

  24. Michelle says:

    When everything is set up are you going to have comments open on all entries or only this one?

  25. Sissy B. says:

    Do you have a sidebar button???

  26. Liza says:

    Excellent Blog! Thank you…thank you. I’d be here often as I need a lot of help on blogging basics :)

  27. rosemary says:

    Am I ever glad to see this! Thanks! I’m eager to start reading and learning!

  28. Mrs. Flinger says:

    Fantastic idea for a site, y’all. I once wrote a “rules of blogging” post after two years of being tossed around and sometimes committing major fhopas (sp??). Anywho, lovely idea for the new blogger. (and probably some veterans, too, cough)

  29. Milehimama says:

    Now, that’s just mean… what’s BlogAds? How can you make money? I thought I was all hip to this blog thing… guess not!

  30. Tina says:

    I join the ranks of the grateful. Thank you ladies for this site. I posted about it and linked back and I feel like a REAL blogger. : ) Thanks!

  31. HolyMama! says:

    i really like how this is going, y’all! the part about how to cross out text? i’ve ALWAYS wondered.

    (are comments open on all posts, or just a few? i’m having trouble)
