New blogger? Welcome! Share a link to your first post, say hello to other new faces, and find your first few readers.
For other help:
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.

Just saw your blog. Good writing. To the Point and precise. I read the about page and looks like you are quite clear about what is your expectation out of this exercise…which is very very good. My suggestion is to use tags to get more visibility and once you have few posts …then you should consider adding categories for easier navigation. Keep up the good work. Do swing by my blog and I will appreciate if you have any feedback for me. Cheers.

Tamico, Just saw your blog. It’s wonderful. I am going to turn 30 in a few days and after reading some of your posts I know I will be Ok. Wonder when the world decided to make ageing a bad word. You have made good use of tags and categories. The theme also looks sorted. Maybe you can include more images along with the source to make the post look less text heavy.
Also consider getting a header image that adds to brand of your blog.Keep writing I look forward to seeing more from you. Do swing by my blog and let me know what you think.

Hi April, just saw your blog. Good variety in there. Consider bringing the category on top instead if the bottom for easier navigation. Also why don’t you use tags, they bring you more visibility… And I don’t see like and share button when we are browsing posts in the home menu. It will be easier for viewers to like and share if those can be seen at the end of each post. Keep up the good work. If you have the time do swing by my blog and tell me what you think of it.

Thank you for the feedback. Ok, I will put the category on top. What tags on where, you mean?
On my Home, there’s no like or share button because I only have there summary/excerpts of my posts. If you try to go continue reading, there’s like and share on every post. But do you know how to put share and like button on home for the excerpts? I would like to know gladly so I can put it in there. Thank you really for the feedback. 🙂

Just saw your blog. You have great writing skills. Inspiring content… But this can be made better by adding categories for easier navigation through the posts. Also consider adding the read more tag between the posts so that folks don’t have to scroll so much to find the post they want to read. I wanted to like your posts but there are no like or share buttons. Do consider adding those. Keep up the great writing and do have a look at my blog if you have the time. I would appreciate your thoughts on it.
