West Virginia International Pageants: October 2013

Starting a blog can be difficult, but our Mrs. West Virginia International, Julie Warden, has a few tips to help you get started!

Select a blog program that works best for you. Two very popular platforms for blogs are Wordpress and Blogger. I use Blogger because it is just more user-friendly for me.
Create a name that stands out and gets your message across. Don’t be afraid to be creative!
Make a schedule for posting. You don’t have to post every day, but you do want to make sure you post at least 3 times a week. A blog that isn’t maintained isn’t a good blog and if you are creating this to promote your message and platform, you want to make sure it always looks its best.
Proofread! Make sure you avoid spelling and grammar mistakes.
Add photos and videos whenever you can. People love graphics!
Speak from the heart. Show your true passion and share your message in as many ways as you possibly can!

Here are a few things you can think about posting:
