How to make a blog? Svbtle!

Category "How to make a website"From Layfhakera continues. All kinds of platforms and tools to accommodate personal or corporate blog there are so many. Do you want to - WordPress is placed on the host, buy a domain and do it all that heart desires. Do not want - Bypass prepared a free tool. Today we tell about the most simple and minimalist, from the familiar to us, the site for placement of a blog called Svbtle.

The creators of the service is positioned Svbtle as salvation from excessive complexity; publishing tools. In principle, if the daily work with WordPress, their motive is understandable. The meaning of this site - to give the opportunity to focus on the thoughts, not at war with the interface. Until recently, the platform has been closed for registration, that is, it tested favorites, but now access is open to all, so it's time to look at this thing.

So registration. She, like the rest of the platform interface in general, is very simple. Name, nickname (this will be a unique piece of the blog's name in the address bar), Email, password - finished.

Before us immediately opens the control panel. Already you can start writing. To do this, write the title of a new idea, or go to step «New entry». Both actions will lead us to a text editor.

Of course, if you can call editor. There is a clean sheet and a button «M» - Markdown - primitive markup language that anyone can use to format text. Nothing more.

Heaped MS Word-style interface with dozens of "krasotulek"? What for? If delishsya ideas and thoughts, the emphasis is placed on them, would not make the publication of the text in the competition "one graphic plugin anymore."

Here we met a bug: if you started writing the post title in Cyrillic, then, when you try to auto-save, the system will to swear on an empty permalink (formed from the header link to the post, but for now Svbtle can not conduct himself transliteration). This bug manages simple: first call post any Latin or numeric characters, Hit «Save idea», and only then change the header text on the Russian. What permalink still get clumsy - it does not matter, before the publication it can be changed through the publication settings.

After the first save of publication, that is, pressing the «Save idea», the interface is supplemented by three other buttons: settings, viewing and publishing. Describe their purpose, probably do not need.

Adding images to a post made banal copying links to the image, or drag and drop an image file to a page editor directly from a local folder on your computer.

When the text is ready, but to publish it as something scary, then you can resort to an interesting chip. Press preview and copy the address bar of your browser the generated link. It is possible to share the any person, then he will be able to read your draft text.

When the post is complete and combed, remains to click «Publish» and look at the result.

We have long thought, how best to briefly describe the impression of the look of your blog, and came up with the characteristic - "blog on iOS 7." The same minimum number of distractions from the content items, simplicity and restraint. What is missing is the gradient :)

When the apparent primitiveness, Svbtle, a more detailed study setting, is much more flexible. Here you can specify the number of additional parameters, ranging from security and privacy settings, and ending with a blog binding options to own the domain and the counter intelligence.

Together, they create a blog form a large community division interests and tastes. The site is 99% English language, which, however, does not prevent successful posted here, if there is no purpose to actively hang out with the local contingent. For a simple personal blog - an ideal option.
