How to Make a Gothic Blog
- 1). Sign up for a blog hosting account on a website such as Blogger or Wordpress. Other blog platforms exist, but Blogger and Wordpress prove to be a couple of the more popular ones on the net.
- 2). Name your blog. Gothic-themed blogs often express sardonic titles that fit the "goth" outlook and feel. If your blog features Gothic poetry or imagery, an example name that fits the theme can be "My Blog of Shadows", or something to that extent.
- 3). Choose the look of your blog by choosing a blog template from any variety of websites. If you have experience with HTML and XHTML, creating your own makes for another viable option. Beginners opt to use pre-made templates from sites such as Btemplates.com for blogger blogs and the free themes directory on the Wordpress site for Wordpress blogs.
- 4). Choose a Gothic style color scheme, with tones of black, red and gray.
- 5). Fill your blog with new posts daily or weekly. Either use your blog to share your stories, photos or poetry. Another option involves using your blog to generate residual income by signing up for programs such as Google Adsense, which enables you to make small increments of money based on the amount of visitors your blog gets.
