Present yourself to the world as

how you’d like to be perceived

by personalizing and updating your

Public Profile.

Create an interesting “About

Me.”Tell more

about yourself.

TIP: “Judge Me” won’t suffice if you want to gain more friends. Share and

show yourself. Indicate your

hobbies, interests, favorites, mottos

and dreams. I won’t hurt to share a little as long as you’ll gain

more.

Have a “Gravat

ar” or

profile picture.

Profile pictures and avatar keep your

blog more interesting. They say

something about you. It is more

enticing to click a photo than to toggle

on the default picture box.

Expressing yourself is a good exercise for your well-being.

We can express our gratitude or apology or dreams. Blogging is a self-expression.

And through blogging, we can be ourselves, we can discover new worlds, explore different stories...
