Once you’ve finished writing your blog post, you can save it, preview it, or publish it, using the buttons on the top right of your screen. Previewing your post will open up a new tab, showing you how your post will look live on your blog.
Only you can see this. Your post won’t be available for other people to see unless you click the Publish button.
