Blogging Tip #3: Design Your Blog

       This tip is also important. Of course all the tips are important but this one should not be neglected. Why? Because this is one reason that your readers or visitors will stay in your blog. There are two things that you should keep in mind when creating the design of your blog. The combination of colors placed in your blog and the arrangement of gadgets or what we called layout in Blogspot. The following are the explanations and or examples in making a good design.
  •  Color Combination
    When we say color combination, it means that we will be talking about the colors that will be used. If your background is dark color (e.g. black), the title of your blog, and the text should be a light color like white. But don't use full white and full black because it will irritate the eye of your readers later on. Full black and full white are too sharp. You should adjust the brightness of the black and turn it into grayish but dark. And the white into grayish light. An example of good color combination is Facebook. I appreciate the combination of colors because it won't irritate your eyes even if you stayed for an hour or more.

  • Arrangement of Gadgets
    The gadgets in your blog must be arranged properly. Your blog should not look crowded. I know we can critique a blog whether the arrangement is good or not. You should give importance with this aspect especially when you're displaying some ads already. Some advertisements looks crowded so be sure to make it look good and proper.
