How to Enter Basic Information on Ning

Ning

Image of Ning

Fill in the basic information describing your social network. This includes your privacy setting, tagline, description, keywords, language, and an icon.

Choosing to make your social network public allows others to search for it on the main Ning website. Making it private hides it from the main site.

The tagline is a short description that appears under the title of your social network. Think of it like a slogan.

Keywords are to help people find your social network when searching. Choose a few basic words that describe the subject of your site like books, movies, or family.

The icon is a picture that you upload. You can also change this later, so you can leave it blank for now if you don't have a picture picked out yet.

Click on the next button when you are done.
