It's a bit clearer for me now. I think I will discuss it with my friend and see what she wants to do. I think having her as a contributor is a good idea, because I would like it if she is registered as the author of the post. </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/guest-posts#post-1912 Sat, 08 May 2010 18:49:06 +0000 Trisha Miller 1912@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>Hi Maria</p> <p>The advantage to having her as a user - beyond just allowing her to type the posts in herself, is that you can then show her as the post author, and she can have an author profile page with a photo and bio. Otherwise, it shows up with you as the author.</p> <p>You can set her with a user role of contributor, which allows her to write and save a post, but not to publish it. That way you can still look it over, and then publish it or schedule it to post whenever you like.</p> <p>But all that said, I agree with Rebecca - if she's not going to be a regular blogger, you may not want to go to that trouble. </p> <p>On TWE, I set every author up with their own username and login password, however many of the authors who contribute just email me their posts in a Word document and I paste it in, but at least this way I can still show them as the author and give them their own profile page. </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/guest-posts#post-1909 Fri, 07 May 2010 05:25:52 +0000 Amandah Blackwell 1909@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>When I guest post, I either write my post in Word and send it to the administrator or I'll be set up on the website's WordPress or Blogger platform if I'll be a recurring guest blogger. It's really up to you. If your friend will be a recurring guest blogger, I say set her up. If not, tell her to write her posts in Word, send them to you, and you can post them. </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/guest-posts#post-1907 Thu, 06 May 2010 10:06:14 +0000 Maria Staal 1907@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>Hi,<br /> I have asked a good friend of mine to write a guest post for my blog. </p> <p>I have noticed in the dashboard that I can add users to my site. Should I add my friend as a user, so that she can put a post on my site in her own name, or should I post it for her. Obviously I would want to read the post she writes before she can post it to my site, but I am a bit hesitant in making her a user.</p> <p>How do other people who have guest posts on their blogs deal with this?</p> <p>Maria </p>
