			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to Edublogs!</p>

<p>2.  Enter your details and then click <strong>Next</strong>.</p>
<ul>
<li>Use only lowercase letters and numbers, with no spaces, in your username</li>
<li>Your username is what you use to sign into your blog dashboard and is displayed on posts and comments you write. You can&#8217;t change your username but you can change what <a href="http://theedublogger.edublogs.org/2008/02/09/changing-your-display-name-and-setting-up-your-comment-avatar/">name is displayed</a>.</li>

<p>3. On the next page name your blog and click <strong>Signup</strong>.</p>
<ul>

<li>Your Blog domain can&#8217;t be changed once created
<ul>
<li>Use a domain that reflects what your blog is about and is unique</li>
<li>Keep in mind people need to be able to remember and easily type your blog domain into their browser – where possible try to keep it short but meaningful</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t stress too much about your blog title as this can be changed any time in Settings &gt; General.</li>
</ul>

</ul>
