First Friday

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.

  12. I am Nina from Indonesia. Actually I made my blog a year ago but no post to show. Well, I love reading but I can’t write yet. Today, I start writing about my experience although still using Indonesian. Wishing the community can support me to write…

  14. Hello everyone ! I started my blog just few days ago only and I need more support and guidance from all so that I can improve my blogs with some more new ideas. My first blog is about the gift which is the best thing one can get in his or her lifetime but still some are unable to recognize it. I will be very happy to hear feedbacks from other bloggers
    Thank you!

    1. Hi! Really good start as you only started today! You’ve got a few “text”‘ boxes/widgets on your blog which still have the original content in, you can remove/edit through the – customize – widgets – section of your blog 🙂

      Don’t worry too much about getting people to share your blog around, you’ll get your following through your posts when people read & if they like etc 😁 I’ve only been blogging a little over a month & you find your way of writing etc through time 👍🏼☺️

      All the best,
      Rosie

    1. Really good start! Well done!

      You’ve got nothing written in your “about” section of your blog so a little description of what your blog is about and yourself is a good idea so people get a glimpse into what your all about 🙂

      All the best,
      Rosie

  29. Hello! I’m iris, I just started this blog 5 or so days ago and I’d love and appreciate anyone who could read my first blog. I have ideas for my next one but I’m looking for some feedback on this one. I talk about my first job, the struggles I’ve overcame & the self confidence I’m needing to build!

    first ever job!!

  30. Hi. I have always enjoyed the act of putting my thoughts on paper. Writing is cathartic to me. With this passion, I’ve embarked on a new journey. I’ve started a blog. Your comments are welcome. Your encouragement will inspire me to keep writing. Kindly visit:
    mythoughtsmatterblog.wordpress.com
    I’ll be writing regularly every fortnight.
