New basic accounts start with limited features. They cannot create a blog right after creating away. Play games and post comments, and this feature will unlock over time!

If your account is no longer new and you have access to your blog, follow these steps to create a post:

  1. Hover over 'Social' on the left-side menu of any Chess.com page and click on 'Blogs.'

  2. Click the green 'Create Post' button in the right sidebar.

  3. Enter a title, select your preferred language, and add an optional image to your post.

    • You can also add a caption and image credit if needed. The © symbol is available to copy and paste into the caption box.

  4. Write your blog in the provided text box. You can insert chess games, images, videos, links, and use formatting options to customize your post.

  5. Click 'Save and Preview' to review your blog before publishing.

  6. Once you're happy with it, click 'Publish' to share it with the community
