After composing your article, you can publish it to your blog for your readers to see. You do this by using the publishing controls, located just below the Article Content area:

These controls give you the option of publishing your article to your blog immediately or saving your article as a draft copy so that you can work on it later.

For this example, we'll choose to publish the article to your blog immediately. To do this:

·Make sure that the Publish this article option is selected. 
·Make sure that the menu to its right has the today's date item selected. 
·Click the Save button to publish the article. 

Clicking the Save button saves your article, publishes it to your blog and takes you to the Dashboard:

At the top of the Dashboard page, you should see a message in red that reads "Article posted", confirming that your article has been saved and posted to your blog. You should also see your article at the top of the Recent Articles list.
