This involves giving a title (an alternative to the actual blog post title you have already given), give a description of the post of up to 160 characters (again using unique text for the description, not just repeating your blog post) and then giving keywords for the post using commas to separate each one.

Once you have completed the above click on the “Submit for Review” button and you’re done!!
NOTE: Before your post is hosted live to the DIY Doctor Blog it first has to be moderated for quality of content. Moderation of pending posts is carried out daily so there may be a slight delay in the appearance of your blog post.
