First, you have to start a blog. If you’ve never blogged with us before, here’s how to start your very own Patch blog:

  • Choose a Patch to host your blog. Go to that Patch’s homepage. 
  • On the Patch homepage, scroll down below the stories and above the events. There’s a green box (“Who’s Blogging?”) highlighting our wonderful bloggers and a brighter green button that says “Start Blogging!” Click that bright green button to start a blog.
  • Next you’ll name your blog, write a description and choose an icon. These will be displayed on all of your blog posts, so choose a name and description that describes what your blog will be about.
  • Your blog is created! Follow the rest of the steps to post.
  • In the top right corner, click the button that says “Hi, Your Name!” (You must be signed in to see this.)
  • When the drop-down menu opens, click “Your Profile.”
  • On your profile is a list of blogs you have access to. Choose which one you want to post on and click on it.
  • Below the name and description of your blog, there’s a white box that says “Write a new post…” Click there.
  • Above your cursor, there are two words: Note and Article. Choose article for more formatting options.
  • Write! Don’t forget to add a photo
  • Hit “Post Now.”
  • You’re live on the site!
