First Friday

Brand 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.

    1. Hi and Welcome to WordPress. I like you’re approach to sharing a story in short pieces. Gives the reader something to look forward to as they wait for you to post the next portion of the story. Interesting Intro page. It does a great job of explaining what you plan to do. I don’t know that i would ever encourage others to tell me what to write (i dont like doing what i’m told lol) but seems to be a great way to get interaction and engagement from readers. I hope it works for you. Good luck.

    1. Hello, and Welcome! Love the title– Crispy Blogs. Very Different!
      I think it’s great that you are writing about some positive topics. Liked your post about curiosity, as I myself have been blessed with an almost unhealthy dose of curiosity. One big suggestion I have is to consider taking your own pictures for your blog or maybe becoming a member of a free pictures site like Pexels. Using other peoples pictures, even screen shots, could cause some legal headaches. using your own will def add more of your personality of point of view. I use sites like pexels when I’m strapped for time. Good Luck

      2. Heya, the site looks like a domain registrar. Check for yourself on a browser not logged into WP. You may need to send a ticket to make sure everything is set up as it should be

    1. Hello and welcome! Very good description what its like to fall in and out of love, or grace, or happiness. I’ve been there. So many of us have. I think its possible to hold on to the happy times longer. . .if we focus on moment, the now, spend less time in the past and make sure we are making the most of what and who we have right now. Enjoyed your first post. Very insightful. Overall great start to your blog. Good Luck.

  17. Morning all, well here anyway, heading off to work but popping by to say hi!

    All are welcome to come have a play and a chat at my relatively new blog. Still finding my feet with design and things but finding it quite addictive!

    Don’t know whether that should concern me or not!?😅

  18. Hey guys! I just started blogging two days ago and I’m glad to see a forum like this out here. I have a dating blog that addresses controversial dating topics and past experiences of relationships that highlights common mistakes that people can relate to and learn from. So be sure to checkout and follow my blog and let me know what you think.

    Here’s my link: https://datingrookie.com

    Thanks!

  20. Hi all, I am trying out something new here. Starting my own blog!
    Spreading positive vibes, sharing my thoughts, lifestyle, and the Araki’s curse.

    Read my 1st blog on: Choose Balance Harmony and Peace. Its easy to take things we have today for granted. We all become overwhelmed at some point by our day to day lives in today’s world. Our way of thinking designs our day to day lives. It influences the actions we take. Changing the way we think helps towards a better today, a better tomorrow. Please continue reading for more good vibes: https://wp.me/p9Qwxw-3
