Despite the fact that the peak of popularity of LiveJournal has already passed, many users still blog there. It's easy to join them - you just need to register and start writing posts.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide on the topic of your blog. Perhaps you will just tell your daily impressions, or maybe share with your readers the secrets of your profession. Also common are blogs "everything about everything", in which the authors simply collect various interesting information. However, for beginners, it is better to focus on something specific.
Step 2
Come up with a nickname. It is desirable that it reflects the essence of your blog. That is, if you write about cats, you can choose something like misscat or catloving as a nickname. Remember that the domain of your blog will consist of your username and the livejournal prefix. Therefore, carefully consider this point.
Step 3
Register on the site. To do this, on the main page, you need to select the appropriate item. Enter your username, password, as well as lists of hobbies and other additional information. This will make it easier for other users to find you. Also add some images and customize your blog display. Design plays a big role, so take a few extra minutes to find the one that suits you best.
Step 4
Write the first entry. In it, it is advisable to tell what your blog will be about, what topics you will cover, what people you want to meet, and so on. For the first time, you can keep this post pinned. To do this, check the box next to the corresponding item on the edit page.
Step 5
Find posts and people about your topic. To do this, you can use the search from LiveJournal or use the usual search engine. For example, you can enter the query "cats blog live journal" in Yandex, and you will be shown all the resources devoted to this topic. Join the community or propose friendships to other users.
Step 6
Be sure to leave comments on other people's posts. LiveJournal has an unwritten rule that you will be reciprocated. That is, if you wrote a comment to someone, they will write it to you. If you link to someone else's blog, they will link to you too. The main thing is that your topics coincide.
Step 7
Work on the content. It is not enough just to publish small notes, it is better to use twitter for these purposes. It is also best to avoid posting other people's posts. First, this is not entirely correct from a moral point of view. Secondly, no one is interested in reading other people's posts. Thirdly, the blog format involves expressing your own thoughts and views on things.
