What is a username?
When you create a blog you choose a username (for example, “john“). By default, your username will also be the last part of the url for your blog (for example, eslblogs.englishclub.com/john). You will use your username to login to manage your blog. Your username may also appear in your blog (for example, “Posted by john on 1st April”). You cannot change your username. Typically, you will choose your name or nickname for your username (if it is available).

What is the URL for my blog?
By default, the url address for your blog will be eslblogs.englishclub.com/ followed by your username, for example:
http://eslblogs.englishclub.com/john

However, during the signup process (on the 2nd screen) you can change the url to anything you want, for example :
http://eslblogs.englishclub.com/football

After signup, you cannot change the url.

Where do I write my blog’s title?
During signup, on the 2nd screen, you can write any title (name) you want for your blog. It will appear at the top of your blog (for example “Football Champions”). After signup, you can change the title at any time in your dashboard.

Can I change my password?
Yes, you can change your password at any time in your Dashboard.

Can I use a language which is not English?
No, the name is ESL Blogs and ESL means English as a Second Language. If you create a blog in another language it may be deleted at EnglishClub.com’s discretion.

Why can’t I see my blog?
If you sign up for a blog but do not immediately make any changes to it or add some text, your blog will be automatically deleted. You don’t need to make big changes or add a lot of text. Just do something to show that you are serious about keeping your blog. Blogs that are not maintained (a period of two month’s inactivity, for example) are liable to be deleted. Blogs that contain spam, unethical or unwanted commercial content designed to drive traffic to third party sites or boost the search engine rankings of third party sites, or that are designed to further unlawful acts (such as phishing) or mislead recipients as to the source of the material (such as spoofing), are liable to deletion. Blogs that contain or install any viruses, worms, malware, Trojan horses or other harmful or destructive content are liable to deletion. You are responsible for maintaining your blog in a clean and proper state and we will not enter into any discussion as to the cause for deletion. Deleted blogs cannot be reinstated.

Can I add video to my blog?
You can embed YouTube or Google videos into your blog. To do so, click the YouTube or Google icon in the Visual menu and enter the url of the video that you want to play. You can find the url from YouTube or Google Video. (Note that you need to activate the Video Quicktags plugin under Plugins on your Dashboard first.)
