How to use HTML codes in Comments

I discovered something... Yeeeeah!I did.
I don't usually discover things, so this is a big deal.
OK, I didn't actually discover it but I think it is still worth mentioning.
I've found out that in the blogging world, sharing is power.
If you find a solution to a problem, it is nice to share it with others since there might be other people looking for the same solutions.
Without further ado, I present to you my first tutorial

How to use HTML code to leave your blog link in the comments section..... 

 

When I first started blogging, I was so afraid of HTML. I thought it was something huge and complicated that should only be left to experts. Well, I still do but I sometimes become the expert and tamper with make little tweaks to these codes.
Moving on, have you ever tried to use HTML when leaving comments on blogs??And just so you know, I do love comments. Who doesn't?
Have you ever wondered how you could leave a link to your blog on the comment form??This can be easily done with HTML web codes or simply HTML comment codes. I will show you how to do this.

1. First, you go to the comment form of the blog post you want to comment on. You add your comment, then use the following code.
2.
3. From here, replace the red text with your blog's URL/link. This can be found at the web address bar when you are at the home page.
4. Next, replace the green text with the name of your blog. For example, if I was leaving a link to my blog, I would replace the green text with Millie's Little Palace.
5. Make sure all the quotation marks are correctly placed. Also ensure that you use these <> very carefully since a code that is not closed will not work.
6. Lastly, publish your comment.

Am going to give you an example right here, right now. If I was leaving a comment on this tutorial I would do the following

The blog name will appear with a link back to your blog.
And that's it.
Try it in the comment form below and leave me a link to your blog. I will come visit...Promise.
Have a great Tuesday.
