Step 2: Set Up Pages

 The second step is about setting up pages. We will help you understand how pages are used on class blogs. We will then show how to set up an about page, guidelines page, and contact  page on your class  blog.
Introduction to pages
 Pages on blogs are normally used for information that you want to share with your readers but don’t expect to update frequently.Blog post Vs Page
 The main things to remember are:
1. Pages are best suited for information you rarel update such as your About , Contact, and Blogging Guideline  pages.
2. Situations where you want students discuss a question or topic are better suited to publish as a post and not on a page.
3. Assignment and homework information is normally best published as posts and not on a page.
4. Too many pages can make information harder to manage and find.
Why you need an About Page?
 You never know how someone might find your blog — Google Search, Twitter, Facebook, or a link from somewhere else.
One of the first things a new visitor looks for is your ‘About ‘ Page. The reasons for having an About page on a class blog include:

1. To provide information for your students, parents, and families about the purpose of your class blog and how to use it.
2. To help your class connect with other classes in other locations and countries.
