Posting a link to my blogpost on someone else’s blog
-
I’m VERY new at this, so I apologize for what is probably a silly question. I can not figure out out to leave a link to one of my blogposts on someone else’s blog. Ex..they write a post and ask others to leave a link to their individual posts. Any help? I’m not very computer savvy, so feel free to talk to me as if I don’t know anything…because I really don’t!
Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Thank you for your response and your kindness to a newbie!! I figured out how to put a link in a post that I’m writing on my blog, but I’m still stuck on leaving a link on someone else’s blog. What I want to do is leave my name (frugalfanatic) and have it be “clickable” so that is links back to a specific post in my blog. Does this make sense? Am I just making things more difficult than they really are?
Thanks

@frugalfanatic Here’s an example of a link that would point back to your latest post:

Thank you all for your help. I think I’ve got it now…just got to keep playing with it! One more thing, since you all have been so helpful! Got any great suggestions for books or articles for people who are brand new to blogging?
Thanks!

I don’t think books are useful at all because no sooner are they published than the information in them becomes out dated. The support documentation is being continuously updated and becoming familar with it and the use of search utilities is critical to becoming an independent wordpress blogger.
My suggestions to all newbies are:
(1) bookmark the link to the support documentation and read it frequently;
(2) lurk on the support forum and take note of questions asked and answers given;
(3) learn how to find the answers for your own questions and those being asked in forum threads in support documentation all by yourself;
(3) click my username and subscribe to my blog. :) -

There’s a list of WordPress books at http://wordpress.org/about/books/ but some may be more technical than what you want.

Also if you’re looking for tips about WordPress.com then I recommend clicking on my username and bookmarking the URL since the site I created is geared towards tutorials and workarounds for WP.com
