This is a relatively easy tutorial on how to add the Follow button into your blog.

Step 1
Open your text editor (e.g. Notepad) and type on this code:



<a href="http://www.blogger.com/follow-blog.g?blogID=YOUR-BLOG-ID" target="_blank"><img src="http://i52.tinypic.com/2rppgjk.jpg" border="0" title="Follow Me on Blogger" /></a>

* You can remove the code for the follow image if you don't want to include it

Replace the YOUR-BLOG-ID text with the ID of your blog. Your blog ID can be found from your dashboard:
BLOG ID

Step 2

ah it doesn't work for me, when i click on it there is an error

Kitty said on May 15, 2013 at 8:57 PM

@Wild Vibe, what error is it? Please make sure you change the BlogID to your blog's ID.

Wild vibe - Inspiration said on May 16, 2013 at 11:08 PM

It says, The following errors have been found blogID: 17590388818818948628

But i replaced the text 'YOUR BLOG ID' with my blog ID

Wild vibe - Inspiration said on May 16, 2013 at 11:11 PM

But the link of my blogger profile is http://www.blogger.com/profile/17590388818818948628

Lotte said on May 16, 2013 at 11:28 PM

oh and now i found out that there is an errorcode, it is bX-epz0yf

Kitty said on May 16, 2013 at 11:55 PM

@Wild Vibe, that is not your blogID, that is your profile ID. Blog ID can be found when you go to the settings for the particular blog. For example when you go to the Posts section, look at the address bar and you'll see your BlogID

Lotte said on May 17, 2013 at 12:52 AM

Thank you so much! it works now ah i've been searching for this for soo long! :D

Unknown said on May 26, 2013 at 1:43 AM

It says the URL has illegal characters .

I changed the YOUR-BLOG-ID to my Blog ID .

@Lilly, when you go to your blog's dashboard you will see something like http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=2931803574273180099.

The string of numbers you see in your address bar is your blog ID.

Flabuloustoabulous said on June 27, 2013 at 9:40 PM

I offer designing and re-designing of Classic Blogger templates. Examples of my design can be found on my portfolio website.

The basic rate for a design starts from $25 USD. The rate is based on the complexity of the design. The more elaborate the design is, the higher the price is.

How to place your order

Send me an email via the contact form and state clearly how you want your design to be. This includes colour scheme, layout (with or without sidebar, number of columns, etc), any extra features, etc.

Your email should be in this format:

Preferred payment method: Paypal/Moneybookers/Payza/Bank transfer to Baiduri bank

I shall respond to your email within 3 (three) days. Your order will be placed into a Waiting Queue as orders are processed on a first come, first serve basis.

Payment methods

Payment has to be made to either by PayPal, or Moneybookers.

However, if you choose to pay via (international) bank transfer, be aware that you may be charged for the transfer service.

Other important information

Throughout the designing process, I may need to refer back to you for questions/opinions so do check your email frequently. This is to ensure the design can be done as soon as possible.

Depending on the design, your template make take up to over 1 (one) week to finish. You will be informed once the template is done.

I will send you an email requesting for the payment after the template is done. Once the payment is received, I will email you the complete template along with the necessary files.

All of my designs/templates will come with a credit section. This section must be left intact and you may not remove nor alter them. Resources that come with the designs/templates may not be redistributed or reproduced.

The designer

Kitty. 29. Blogger, web design hobbyist, compulsive shopper and bibliophile based in Brunei. Enjoys creating and designing websites, dabbling with HTML, CSS and PHP.

I've been blogging since 2005 (or earlier) though my experience with the internet started back in 2000. My main interest is in web design and development. Other times you can see me wrapped around a book or glued to Astronomy and web design magazines.

The website

This website was created in January 2011 and the domain was purchased by me in late December 2010. Initially the website was intended to house tutorials for Classic Blogger/Blogspot only however over the time it has developed into what you see today.

Several of the tutorials and articles can also be found on Nekonette.com, which is the my main website where I mostly blog about my personal life. Also some of the tutorials here have been moved to that website.
