How To Join and Write Blog as Guest Author

By
By Sushovan Parida ----  

Being a Guest Author is always fun. You get to share your posts on another Blog that too with your own name and identity. Guest posting feature In Blogger is really useful as it gives a chance to new authors to reproduce their content on a well known Blog, thereby giving a head start to their Blogging career.

So all I'm going to do day is explain the process of joining and writing a Blog as a Guest Author. Let's get started -

                       

Before you can join a blog as Guest Author you must have -

1. An Author invitation E-mail from the Admin of the Blog.
2. A Google (or Gmail) account, which we all have!

Now one more criteria that is desirable for a Guest Author is a Google+ profile. I strongly suggest you to have a Google+ profile before you start Blogging. It will help you to get a Google Authorship verification and you can appear as an verified author with your photo, post and Google+ profile in Google Search results. You can ask the Blog Admin to send the Author Invite to the Gmail associated with your Google+ Profile.

Learn how to show your profile and picture in Google Search


Follow these steps to Join a Blog as Author -

Step 1 - Click the Blogger link inside your Invitation E-mail and Sign in into Blogger with your Google account (preferably the account associated with Google+ profile). Once you log in you'll find the following options - 
                


2. Confirm Your Profile by selecting your Google+ Profile (or you can switch to Blogger profile) option and click Save/Continue at the end of the page. Refer to above screen shot for help.

3. After you confirm your profile you'll be redirected to your Blogger Dashboard -
         

To create/write a new post click the Create new post button and you'll be directed to the Blogger Post Editor page - 
  

4. You can now start start writing your Post here. The Editor has all necessary tools (highlighted by green rectangle) like Fonts, Images, Links etc. just like our very own Microsoft Word. So you can easily write and edit your post inserting fonts, images and Links.

You can find the Post settings (highlighted by blue rectangle) on your Right sidebar. If you are unsure about the settings such as Label, Search Description etc. then let your Admin handle that. All you have to do is to finish writing your Post, then click Save and Close.
That way your post will be saved as a Draft and your Admin can later Publish it with the correct Settings.

That's it ! You are all set as an Author to start Blogging. All these steps (except Post writing of course) will take hardly 5mins. 

If you find this post useful, then do share it with your friends on Facebook.

THE FIRST TIME

By
It was one of those typical weekends and I was  the typical lonely guy, sipping away my cup of coffee, all alone. It was just me and my phone enjoying each other's company on a weekend evening. It's not that I had no friends, I had fairly good friends but they had girlfriends. Believe me; the girlfriend always scores a victory over the friend when it comes to investment of attention and company. My thoughts were meandering across the vastness of my solitude when my phone started ringing abruptly.  It was Rohan, one of the few friends who actually call me. Rohan - Hey man, wass up? I sensed an obnoxious sense of dizziness in his voice. Me - Hey bro are you drunk? Rohan - Oh my God you know me so well. You are my true friend. It’s not just me, Vikash is also drunk. Vikash was my college roommate, another one of those saintly friends who still call me. Me - Oh God! What are you guys unto at this time? If this is an invitation for a booze party, you alr...

Never Too Late To Have a Happy Childhood

By
I love the statement of Walt Disney who quoted -- "Thats the real trouble with the world, too many people grow up". By the time we begin to understand enough about the world to ask the right questions, our visit is over, and someone else is visiting, asking the same questions. The carefree attitude was lost somewhere. As a child we had a different craze for chocolates, for toys and for everything sweet but our intentions were pure and pristine. We were innocent, we wanted happiness for everybody whether it was a friend or a foe. We had priorities set to a different level. For us happiness used to come in every small package whether its a delicious snack cooked by mom or a new book gifted by dad, or the 1st time we ride a  bicycle. We used to be busy with something every time, whether its watching the rainbow or counting the stars, or making strange imaginations from the clouds. Our days were short and life was fulfilled. We never knew what is Money a...

THE GIRL WHO BLOCKED ME

By
“Hello. Before you wonder who I am and why did I invade your privacy in this ludicrous manner, I want to tell you that I understand that this is the most uncivilized and discourteous way to start a conversation with some girl you have never known. The worst I could do was to take your phone number without your permission. I mean that is genuinely the worst way to approach a girl. But you have to know I had to send this message, to make my mind guilt free, to proudly reply to my conscience that at least I made an attempt and to win myself a conversation with you. I am sure all this is irrelevant and inconsequential for you but I want to confess that I may have practiced writing this message several times through several days. I might have visited your Facebook profile a few times. And I might have rehearsed a few times on how to cope up with the failure once I don't get any reply from you. But all these hardly diminish the fact that I have utmost respect for you and t...
