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.
Currently blogless? You’re a click away from sharing your story.

Hello! I just started blogging last week. I just write what comes to my mind. So, much like my mind, my writing may be a little random and out there. 😉

It’s a but jumbled but for some reason I like it! Lol Your post shows a lot of your personality. The only thing I would recommend is, in your writing try to use quotations “…” around your thoughts or what your saying. That way the reader can differentiate between your point of view writing, your thoughts, and what you say.

Lol! Yeah it is. Most of the time, I get an idea and just start writing like a mad man. And it doesnt help Ive been using my phone since the internet has been off and on. I really need to use the computer because I think that will help me be able to see everything and what needs done. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my post and for the tips!! 😃😃

I write on my phone too, but then I’ll switch over to my laptop. I come up with ideas for a blog post so I like getting them started on my phone. Or I’ll write them down in my note app so I won’t forget. I only switch over to my laptop because it has the bigger screen and I like to use Grammarly as I write. If you need help with anything else just let me know, I want to support fellow bloggers as much as I can.

Recently, I’ve started with the Anilines series and have posted Chapter 1 until now. I will be very soon posting the rest of the chapters. Any fantasy lover? I’m pretty sure you’re gonna like it. The first chapter hasn’t got much, merely an introduction. Lots of more suspense to come. If interested, please visit my page https://missreebsworldoffantasy.wordpress.com I’d be delighted if you do.

We would ask that you not repeatedly share the link to your blog in comments here — we keep this space as focused as we can on new folks, and the repeated links can monopolize the comments and distract from the truly new bloggers.

One thing I noticed — you’re using a lot of tags on your first post. The WordPress.com Reader actually filters out posts that use more than 15 tags and categories (combined) as an anti-spam measure, so using this many tags actually makes it harder for folks to find your posts, which is sad! If you cut your tags down to the most relevant, you’ll actually draw more readers.

Hello and welcome, new folks! We’re really excited to meet you.
As usual, I just want to remind everyone that we moderate the comments on First Friday pretty heavily — this is really a space for brand new people to introduce themselves and meet one another, and for others to welcome and support them.
If you’re not here to either share your (recent) first post or leave a supportive comment, please head to the Community Pool, which is where any blogger can seek feedback on any aspect of blogging. And if you’re not sure what the guidelines here are, please read the above post — or just ask!
Happy blogging, y’all:)
