Q&A Wednesday - "How do I leave a comment?"

With the contests I've been holding this summer, I've had several people tell me that they can't enter because they don't know how to leave a comment on a blog. It just occurred to me to write it all out for you so those of you who think you need to sign up for a Blogger account, can see that you DON'T need to!

Step 1: Go to the bottom of the post that you'd like to leave a comment. On my blog, it will say, "6 comments" or even "0 comments" - click on that.

Step 2: Once in the comments screen, type your comment in the text box at the top, right side of the screen.

Step 3: Select one of the options below.
- Log in with your Google (gmail) I.D. OR...
- Log in with an Open ID (for LiveJournal, WordPress, TypePad, AIM or you can type your own OR...
- Click on Name/URL to type just your name or both your name and your blog URL address OR...
- Click Anonymous to come up as "anonymous" with no name or link in your comment.

Step 4: Type the word verification in the box. (that's not on there to annoy you...it helps avoid spam comments)

Step 5: Select "Publish your comment."

I hope that was helpful! Now that it's been explained to you, I expect lots and lots of comments. (Was that subtle? No?)
