Video: How to Create Your First Blog Post

Even the most experienced bloggers had to start some place.

Blogging on Encinitas Patch is an effective way to reach a ready-made audience on base, in Carlsbad and beyond.

Blog posts that originate here, are often syndicated to other Patch towns in Southern California. 

Some bloggers show their expertise, others show the impact their organizations have had in the community. Some just write fun posts.

Whatever the reason, each had to start somewhere.

The accompanying video shows how to get started with your first post. It contains a lot of information, so pause as often as necessary.

We use a fun piece from Rich Grimm of Tsunami Skydivers in Oceanside.

If you have further questions, feel free to email Encinitas Patch local editor Marlena Medford at marlena.medford@patch.com.

The public deserves an objective, unemotional, factual public debate on this proposition. So far IRead More am still leaning toward a yes vote, but I am keeping an open mind at least through this month.

The bottom line is women are not oppressed in American society as you guys would have everyoneRead More believe. If successful women are to be championed then why isn't Sarah Palin a hero to you guys?
Batman May 25, 2013 at 09:45 am
Yes, that and lots of other problems are less likely. I'm not implying, I'm saying it outright.

Batman, are you implying that with more male dominance in the home alcoholism is less likely.
