Blogger (or an alternative) added to a Xara site

berendkoert - There is a widget in the > Other Widgets called Embed a Website. You can use this to bring the blog into Web Designer.

You can also insert the blog feed as a placeholder on your page. rssinclude.com is free and very easy to customise.

Good suggestion Megg. https://www.rssinclude.com/ Free is good. Though doesn't it do the same thing that the Embed a Website does?

why not just create a blog in the website itself? Saves ads popping up, you can customize it to your site 100%, it shows your client's website as having new content, relevant content as opposed to giving such content to a 3rd party?

OK. Good idea. How do we do this?

If you created your client's site it's just a case of creating the page and posting it up. If you didn't create the clients site, then perhaps you could create a replica page or a complimentary style page for the blog for your customer and publish it to a blog folder onto your customers host... I hope this makes sense? If you look at my blog you'll see it's in the style of the website [though slightly different] and I just upload this to a blog folder at my host. Then to help promote the blogs, I use FB, pintrest, the best of etc as well as the onsite news page with links to the blogs that are written...

I hope this helps you.

cpk, I've used the 'placeholder' routine to embed a Tumblr blog on my site, and it seems to work fine:

I tried to get a blogspot blog working properly, and it didn't work so well. I forget what the problem was.
