Getting Started With Blogging

Blog terminology - A blog is generally a collection of articles i.e. There is the Media Nation blog:
http://medianation.blogspot.com/
And then there is an article on that blog:
http://medianation.blogspot.com/2007/10/more-on-keller.html

So you want to name the blog something general - like "My Stuff" or "Billy's Club" or "Zippity Doo-Dah" and then post articles.

Getting started - To get started go to blogger.com or any other blogging site, create an account, and start ranting. Then send the address of your blog to feedback@casinofacts.org to get your blog listed on the blogs page. The address of your blog will look something like this: http://cfowebmaster.blogspot.com.

Set up comment moderation - At least on blogger - and probably any other decent blog site, you can control the way reader comments are handled. This is done in the "Settings->Comments" tab(once you're logged in). For starters set "Enable comment moderation" to "Yes". Then decide who can comment. The choices are:
   Anyone - self explanatory
   Only blog members - people you invite to your blog
   Only registered users - people with a blog account

The best choice is to start with anyone and then tighten it up if you get a lot of annoying posts.

Setting Up Links - In your blog page, try to mention http://casinofacts.org and include links to casinofacts.org so people can easily get back once they leave to read your blog. To set up links in your blog, go to your blog address and click on "Customize" on the top of the blog. Go to "Page Elements". Click on "Add A Page Element" in the left or right frame(depending on which style you chose". Then add some links - just the ones you want such as:
