  Hi everyone, I am very new to the blog scene and wanted to just say hi to fellow bloggers and see what a few look like and all that. My blog is crazy unfinished and I will get to it eventually, but for now: How are all you fine folk? Where am I actually allowed to say hi?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi new blogger,

  Of course it is OK to say ‘hi’. The WordPress community is very friendly and a great way to connect with it would be to do the Blogging 101 course – learn lots too. The next one should be in April, although I don’t think a date has been set yet.

  Good luck with your blog – and your new path in life.

  Hi @speshil1 !

  Welcome to WordPress.com! Glad to have you on board! As @timethief and @johannabennett mentioned take a look at the Blogging 101 courses here:

  https://dailypost.wordpress.com/blogging-university/

  I recently helped moderate the January Blogging101 course and met quite a few bloggers just like yourself! They’d be more than happy to have you. Take a look and see when the next course is! What’s also great about Blogging101 is that it’s run by the fabulous Michelle who is an Editor at WordPress.com. There are also Happiness Engineers there like myself who you can call on if you run into any technical issues!

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!

  Happy Blogging!
