Blogging on the go (via Email!)

Did you know you can blog on the go via eMail (assuming you have an email program on your phone and internet acces and all that)?

It's really useful when you just want to post an update and you can even attach pictures if you want! How convenient, eh?

And you can set it so that they are only saved as drafts - very useful if you have ideas for blogposts!


Blogging via eMail

Step 1
Go to www.blogger.com to access your dashboard.

Step 2
Click on the little envelope symbol in front of your listed blog


Step3
In the new window, enter a unique name in the text field. This will make the email address to which you send your blog posts or whatever :) It could be msdriftedsw.germangirl@blogger.com for example. Keep your email secret (the one I just wrote is fake) otherwise other people can send emails to that and post!


Voila! You are done :)

Change settings or disable Blogging via eMail

When you switch on the email option following the instructions above it is automatically set to publish anything that goes to that email address.

In case you want to change that or disable the option follow these steps

Step 1
Go to www.blogger.com to access your dashboard.

Step 2
Click on 'Settings' where your blog is listed


Step 3
Go to the 'Email & Mobile' option


Step 4
In the 'Posting Options' section you can change the settings to either 'save emails as draft posts' or 'disable' depending on what you want.

sorry, had to block out my private email addres xx


Step 5
Scroll to the bottom and click 'Save'


I hope this helps :) Let me know if you need any help!!

Miuch love,
