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.

Hello, I just started my blog a few days ago. I wanted to share my thoughts and experiences about photographing the world around me and connect with others who enjoy doing the same. I’ve come across so many wonderful blogs here and I look forward to interacting with you all and reading some great content! Here is the link to my first post.

I noticed that you still have some placeholder text in your blog’s sidebar — you can remove or edit that by going to My Site > Customize > Widgets. Look for the Text Widget!
Also, I’d recommend putting spaces in your blog’s title — the title doesn’t have to be exactly the same as the address! You can update that in My Site > Customize > Site Identity.

Hello fellow bloggers! I joined the blogging world last month. I’m just your modern millennial working mom. My job is in television news so my blog is about trying to balance life both in front of and behind the camera. Here’s my first post:

Hello all,
I just wrote my first blog post. A short introduction about myself and how I got into the things I do in my spare time.
It took some time to write it. Thinking in Dutch and writing in English is more or less time consuming, but also rewarding. Especially as I have some international friends.
Anyways, hope you like the first post. Comments are welcome.

Sure! And if you decide you don’t want to share for a while, you can always visit the Community Pool when you’re ready — it’s a weekly open thread where any blogger, new or older, can give/get support and feedback.
But I encourage you to share — we’re a supportive bunch here!

Hello!!! I have been wanting to do this for a very long time (start a public blog)…..I feel like I have a bunch of good ideas, but I have hesitated to start until now. I am completely overwhelmed by just getting it up and running that I have made excuse after excuse as to why I shouldn’t start. I have finally put my foot down to myself and kicked my own butt into gear. Please, I am dying for some advice, criticism, etc.
