Have Something to Say? Blog About it On San Carlos Patch
Blogs have taken the place of op-eds and letters to the editor. Setting yourself up as a blogger is a snap, AND, your blogs will appear prominently on the homepage.
With a Patch blog, it’s easy to keep your neighbors in the loop, share your opinion or start a discussion.
Patch blogs are automatically featured front-and-center on the San Carlos Patch homepage.
When you post, right away the community can read about your school’s latest event, your thoughts on the new developments in the city, or even something interesting you've noticed around town. The topics are endless!
What do you want to share with your community? After you post, you can let people know about your blog post using Facebook, Twitter or email. And we’ll let San Carlos know about your post by sending a link to our readers in San Carlos Patch's daily email newsletter.
The posts of our most popular, active bloggers will be featured in the “Who’s Blogging” box!
Some other Patch blog features: bloggers can now edit their own posts and moderate their own comments. Don't want anyone commenting on your blog? No problem--you have the option to turn off comments.
On the homepage, scroll down to the featured bloggers section and click "start a blog." Give your blog a name, a description and then type what you want in the body. Choose a blog icon from the icons available, or upload your own photo. Then click "create your blog."
And, as always, if you'd like some help, feel free to shoot the editor an email at joan.dentler@patch.com.
Happy Blogging!
