Add a Blog Roll to Your Blog

Now that many of you are getting going, I see that you mostly don't need much help with the technical stuff, and are more interested in sharing ideas and strategies.

However, I encourage you to add a blog roll to your blog - a list of blogs that you follow, or that you recommend to your followers. To do this, click on the Design link on the top right of your screen. This will take you to the layout of your blog. There are links in various locations to add a gadget. Click the link to see what's available. There are lots of possibilities!

Choose Blog List, add it, and then choose Add to List to add a blog. All you need is the URL for the blog, Blogger does the rest. You can see here on our home page that they use an icon to indicate if the blog is on Blogger, and some other services have their own icons. You can see that Alesha's blog doesn't have an icon because it's on their own proprietary site.

Your blog roll will grow and change as your blog evolves. It's a good way to connect with other bloggers and to build your audience.
