  My family has yet to read my blog, I’d like to keep it that way. Is it possible to block their IP addresses?

  Thanks in advance.

  you can’t block anyone from reading your blog unless you choose the private setting – then only people you choose to invite can view your blog.

  Just don’t tell your family. Unless you share a computer with any of them.

  I agree with mmslo. Also set your computer up with a password. And if you have any files relating to your blog sign in and or password then put them in files called something completely different – dental records, repair receipts, or whatever.
