Quick start

This is the fastest path from a fresh signup to a live blog you can share. Plan for a few minutes. You don't need any technical setup.

1. Create your account

Go to the signup page and create an account. Once you're in, Floggy takes you straight into onboarding.

2. Pick your username

Your username becomes your web address. Whatever you choose here, your blog goes live at:

https://your-username.floggy.xyz

Pick something short and recognizable. You can connect a custom domain later without losing this address.

3. Fill in your profile

Onboarding walks you through a few short steps. Add:

  • A display name and a one or two line bio.
  • A profile photo.
  • Your work status (hidden, "Open to opportunities", or "Currently employed" with your role and company).
  • Social links to the places people can find you.

Every step is skippable. You can change all of it later in Settings > Profile.

4. Add sections and choose a theme

Still in onboarding, you can add portfolio sections (like Projects or Experience), set up your navigation menu, and choose a theme. The live preview on the side updates as you go. Skip anything you're not ready for.

5. Write your first post

From your dashboard, open Posts and click New Post. This opens the full-screen editor. Give the post a title, write your content, and optionally add a cover image and a short excerpt.

For the full tour of the editor, see Writing.

6. Publish it

In the editor, set the post's Status to Published and its Visibility to Public. That's it - the post is live.

7. View your public site

Open your blog in a new tab:

https://your-username.floggy.xyz

You'll see your profile, your sections, and your new post exactly as visitors do. Copy that link and share it anywhere.
