Video: How to Create Your First Blog Post

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.
