WHAT MAKES A GOOD BLOG?

Things you must include:

Basic Links such as - Home, Add, Message, Comment and Block, the rest are mainly down to personal choice, the reason why I include the Block link is due to people harassing or annoying someone.

Try to design your profile around you - colours that match you specifically but keep it so it's easy on the viewers eyes

If you have Graphic Experience then create your own images for your layout, this is great because you then stand out from the rest of the crowd

Do not worry if you can not create graphics yourself, there are sites to teach you just google "graphic design tutorials" etc. You can even get some free graphics to use.

Your profile can still look good without graphics though, if you know some basic html and css then you can get results just as good. There are lots of websites out there offering free tutorials and codes but to get really good you need to learn not just do what it says.

Things you should not do:

Stop ways of interaction - no add, message or comment options without these people cannot interact with you.

Have links that are hard to read due to colour, size, hovers which hover to the same colour as your background.

Graphics that are just too harsh on the eyes, do not go too crazy with your design/graphics or people will just click off your profile

DO NOT jam pack your profile with things.
