How to Create a Blog Post

Posting a blog is pretty simple.  Here's how you go about posting a blog:

1) Login to the back end of your website
2) From the left side navigation, hover over "Blogging"




3) Click New Post.  This will bring you to the page where you can add a blog post




4) Add a Title.  This will be the title of the blog.  You can name it whatever you want
5) Add content to the blog.  You can add text, images, embed a video or even add html code into your blog post.
**If adding html code or embedding a video, make sure you are on the "Text" tab.
**The text tab is for adding code and does not keep any formatting.  If you want to add formatting to the text (i.e., bolding a word) you'll want to be on the "Visual" tab.
6) When you're done adding content, click Publish
**Also, notice above the "Publish" button, it allow you to edit the settings to publish immediately or schedule the post to publish at a later date.
**Even if you choose to publish immediately, it will take up to 24 hours for our servers to update.  So, it can take up to 24 hours for it to show up on the front of the website.  To view the post, you can click the "Preview" button which will show you how the post will look.
