SailBlogs.com is a
free blog (sometimes called a weblog or an on-line diary) hosting service, tracking system and social network that has been developed with the needs of

SailBlogs.com first and foremost has been designed to be simple to use. A journal can be established and configured in
just a few minutes, with posts only taking a few clicks to add. SailBlogs.com provides the ability to include a table of
contents, will order your posts by date and time, and can have multiple entries per day and per page and a host of other customizations.
In addition, we have designed SailBlogs.com to be modular, with the ability to easily add new features when you need them.
In order to provide this service, we require that each blog display an unobtrusive block of advertising that has been designed
for the template you've chosen. The ads are provided by Google, and as such will be related to the content of your blog posts.
This ensures relevant advertising for your visitors and allows us the ability to give you a cost free membership. These ads can be
removed, or used by members for their own purposes, if an advanced X-Journal membership is purchased.
PLEASE NOTE: SailBlogs is NOT a classified advertising or personal ad system. If you set up a blog with this type of post,
it simply will not be effective. There are other systems and message boards designed for this purpose. SailBlogs does not promote
your blog - that is the member's responsibility. Some advertising might also violate our terms & conditions and those accounts
could be suspended.
