Each post must be filed under one or more categories. This aids in navigation and allows posts to be grouped with similar content. By default, a post must be listed under one of the Audience categories. Each post can also be listed under custom categories.

To Write a Post:

1. Log on to your Blog.
2. On the top menu, click Write.
3. On the submenu, click Write Post.

Note: If you have posts that you have written and saved as Drafts, they will be listed here. Click on the title link to edit the post.

4. On the Write Post page, enter the post's details:
   • Title: Add the post's name. You can use any words or phrases. Avoid using the same title twice as that will cause confusion. You can use commas, apostrophes, quotes, hypens/dashes, and other typical symbols in the title. Example: "My Site - Welcome to my Site!"
   • Post Editing Area: Add text, links, images, and anything else you want in your post. Use the buttons to add effects such as bold, italic, bullets, and more. If additional information is needed (like when creating a link), a pop-up window appears for you to fill in the details.
5. Select Categories for your post. You must select at least an Audience. The options are:
   • Audience: All posts must have an audience category selected - buyers, sellers, or realty professionals.
   • Content: Appears once an audience is selected. Use the Content categories to organize your posts by subject matter.
   • Region: Appears when a Content category other than General Information is selected. Offers the ability to list a post under a specific geographical location. City and neighborhood are optional.
   • Hot Topics: Appears if there are any Hot Topic categories listed on the system. Select a hot category if your topic fits the subject matter.
   • Custom Categories: Add a custom category if the topic you need doesn't exist.

     Tip: Keep custom categories broad enough to contain several posts.
