If you’re not new and are looking for support or feedback, the Community Pool is the place for you!

For technical questions, visit the WordPress.com Support Forums.

To learn more about blogging, take a Blogging U. course.

To find, copy, and paste your link:
Head to your blog’s home page — not your dashboard, your blog itself. Click on the title of your post to open the individual post.

Highlight and copy the URL you see in your browser’s address bar, and paste the entire URL into a comment here.

Welcome to First Friday, a weekly open thread where any new blogger can share a link to his or her very first post with the larger WordPress.com community. To share your first post with us, copy and paste the link right into a comment here. (If you’re not new, you can still be a part of First Fridays: visit a link or two, and leave the blogger a like or comment!)

Please don’t use this as a space to share your first post…. that you published three years ago; ditto for simply sharing your latest post. Posts should have been published within the last month, and should be your first post. We’ll remove other posts to keep this space focused for new bloggers.

We ask that you help us keep this space focused by following a few additional guidelines:

  • We encourage anyone who shares a link to visit a few other bloggers. New readers for all!
  • When commenting, the third time is not the charm: don’t share the same link repeatedly, or in multiple First Friday threads. We’ll remove repeat posts.
  • Link directly to your new post, rather than to your blog generally — it makes it that much easier for folks to like the post or leave you comments.
  • Avoid repeated “Follow for a follow!” comments. (Tip: if you’re trying to build a readership, it’s much more effective to visit and comment on individual bloggers.)
  • To keep from losing your place while you visit others’ blogs, right-click on links to open them in a new tab or window.

  1. Greetings,
    I’m a traveler, writer, and fairly new blogger. It’s been about a month since I started this blog. When I first began, I posted a couple times a week, but now I’m trying to post every day. I love the challenge of being able to constantly produce creative work. My blog documents my nomadic traveling life as I amble across the United States with my crazy lovable family. I hope you jump in and join me in my adventures.

    My first post:

    Modern Day Travelers, Nomads, and Gypsies

    2. It is really exciting to travel, especially with your family, my wife and I too travel, we have not quit our jobs to travel (yet), but nevertheless enjoy the precious time that we get to travel. We enjoyed reading your posts, and hope you will do the same.

    1. FYI: that link goes to your dashboard, which is private, so people won’t be able to see your site. The simplest way to get the public link is = to go to your blog’s main page and click on the post title. Then, copy the address you see in your browser’s address bar and use that.

  12. My first Blog Post on this account that I’m sharing with my boyfriend. We’ve been blogging for slightly less than a month now, so we are fairly new and would love some feedback! We mostly talk about our video game, Miku RPG, that we are making together and also our daily lives and general thoughts. Hope you like it 🙂

  21. Starting a blog was a big step for me as I don’t fancy myself a writer. I want to share my year-ish long fitness journey as I prepare for nationals as a figure/fitness competitor; I hope to inspire others. I have been blogging for about two weeks now.

    1. Hi! Good luck with your fitness competition! It looks like you’re doing great! I like the pictures of your updates and your energetic style of writing. If you’re a new writer, that’s wonderful! Welcome! My favorite writing book “On Writing Well” talks about several concepts that is useful to all writes and has a section about how to write about yourself. It might come in handy as you continue your blog.
