Creating a Blog on Blogger
There
are easy ways to create a blog. You just have to do a little research and
choose a platform for your blog. There are several blog hosts you can choose
like: Blogger, Wordpress, Wix, and more.
I
chose Blogger because it is simple and easy to use compare to others. The only
problem is to personalize it, Wordpress has tons of templates you can work with
and change it your way, but it is a little more complicated than Blogger.
Blogger is
Google’s free tool for creating blogs. It can be found on the web at http://www.blogger.com. Setting up a
Blogger account takes 5 easy steps:
1. Create an account.
2. Name your blog.
3. Choose a template.
4. Create an entry.
5. Post.
You
can host multiple blogs with the same account name, so you only need to do that
part once. This way you could separate your professional blog about your
business from your personal blog about events, for instance.
Blogger
will host your blog for free on blogspot.com. You can use a default Blogger
URL, you can use your own existing domain, or you can buy a domain through
Google Domains as you set up a new blog.
How to: Create a successful event. Basic Steps.
When it comes to events everybody feels like they are totally capable of organizing and handling them. It is not until the last week or the same day of the event, that everything just seem go down like a roller coaster and they see sort of freak show going on. It is essential that people learn some crucial steps before organizing any type of event, in order to avoid a WWII.
The first thing is to know what is your budget, what is the event, and to who is directed. Set a limit, and try to don't go too much over it. It might seem obvious but some people just think about themselves and throw a really boring party for 16 year old teenagers serving them fancy food and lousy music, or create a corporate meeting and don't think about the food, their stay, and the dress code.
The second most important step is to set a date and time. It is crucial to know the availability of a place or a venue before even thinking about doing the event there. Sometimes, the venues are all booked out, a weekend is a holiday, it is a high season, and so much more.
Third, the venue or location of the event. Finding an affordable place and availability is not an easy task. Research is vital, a few trips, and word of mouth, will be great allies while looking for a place.
Without food and entertainment, a party will just suck. Everybody knows that this is one of the most important things beside all the other work done already. However, some people will underestimate the power of these two. For a successful event is better more than less. Search for good catering services, have some samples and don't get too stingy. A good event planner will always think about their guests first.
The last thing is decoration and set-up. The idea of any event is to create a memory in your guests minds. A theme will always help to create a straight line of what the event will look like. It will create a story that everybody can follow.
After all of this, take a moment to breathe, grab a drink, stand all the way in the back, and take a nice look of everything you have done. You won't regret it.
