Blogger Tip; How To Provide A Direct Follow Link To Google Friend Connect



I've been blogging on and off for almost two years and I can't help but think that I should of already known how to accomplish this simple task, I didn't, but now I do thanks to Taryn from Mom of One and Having Fun.  Providing a direct follow link will make following on Google Friend Connect  so much easier.  This will really come in handy for giveaways on entry forms, that is as long as GFC doesn't go completely away:(

If you require entrants to follow you on GFC you can simply add this link in an entry form to make it simpler.  For group giveaways this will no doubt be essential.

First you need your blog ID number, this is easy to obtain in blogger since it appears in the address bar in the posting, settings and template pages.  If you're using another hosting site then you can obtain your blog ID number from the page source.


Here's the link to this blog:

..and then add your blog ID number and Viola!  That's it.  This will surely make things a little easier.
