Are You a No-Reply Blogger?

Since I'm new to the blogging world, I haven't received lots of comments on my posts.  However, the traffic to my blog is slowing picking up and I'm beginning to receive comments.  I'm super excited and I want to reply by email when I can.  However, I'm beginning to notice that I can't reply to several because they are a no reply blogger.  That means they do not have an email address attached when they reply.  How sad is that for me?  I can reply directly on my blog, but if they don't come back and check my previous posts for replies, they will miss them.  :0(  Not good!  So... like so many of my fellow blogging buddies, I am going to attempt to give directions for checking your blogs and making sure you are NOT a no reply blogger.


First click on your design button at the top right hand corner.



Second click on your blog name at the top right hand corner.



Third click on blogger profile.


 Then click on edit profile.


Next make sure the box next to show my email address is checked.




 Finally, make sure your email address is filled in next to this box.

That's it!  It's super simple!

  1. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Someone told me I was a no-reply blogger, but I had no idea how to fix it. I just followed your instructions and I think I have fixed the problem. Thanks so very much. Maria

  4. Be aware though that some of us read your blog from our phone myself included), and the mobile version may not be as easily accessed. However, this is a GREAT post. Do you mind if I put a link to it from my blog? I was thinking about writing about a similar topic.

  5. I don't mind a bit! Whatever we can do to get the word out will be great! I'm new to the blogging world, so I'm still learning as I go. I assume there are others that are in the same boat. By the way, I tried to reply to you via email and I got the no reply blogger. Just an FYI!

  9. So here's a weird question...I think my profile goes to my Google+? I can't tell if I'm a no-reply blogger. :-( I don't want to be, but I don't know how to fix it!

  11. Just tried following your directions, and when I click on "design" it doesn't show my blog name. It goes to my dashboard every single time. Is there a different way to do it?
