Add a Blog/Communication Page

[Rebecca]

Hi,
Could someone tell me how to add a Blog page to web site using Front Page
2002? Is this possible?

Thank you very much.

You would need some type of software. you could potentially build one in
Frontpage but it would be easier to just get the source code of one that is
already created. Of course that depends on the server language for us to
recommend one

Check with your host. Some of them already have blogging applications
available to you, or they have an application that could be added to your
existing hosted account. You may also want to look at blogging services such
as WordPress (http://wordpress.com/) as they're much less hastle if you
don't have the experience setting up web applications, and also if your host
doesn't support installing an appropriate application or have a database
available for it's use.

blogspot.com is another good one. Create your blog there and then link to
it.

 

[Chris Leeds, MVP - FrontPage]

besides what the others mention you could get a "spaces" account:
http://spaces.live.com/ which offers capability that you'd be hard pressed
to find elsewhere such as video feeds, rss feeds, expo listings, etc.
regardless of whether you use something like "Spaces", or if you deploy your
own solution like wordpress, you should use this:
http://get.live.com/betas/writer_betas it's truly excellent and a great way
to write your blog entries regardless of the system you chose.

Thank you very much Corey. I am sorry that it took me so long to respond!

Thank you very much Mark, I did both - My host did have one and I checked out
wordpress to. Very easy to use!

Thank you!

Thank you David - I checked out blogspot and I found it really easy to use.
I actually used it to create another blog as well - I felt pretty darn smart!
Thank you!

Thank you very much Chris! I cannot believe how much information there is
out there regarding blogs and I have learned new stuff by going to Spaces.

Thank you!
