Through efficiency brought by technology and a law school’s commitment to introduce its students to more effective business models and technology to improve legal services, LexBlog is moving forward with a Law School Blog Network offering law students, professors, and administrators its blogging platform and services at no cost.
Students and Professors will be placed on a version of our standard Blog Plan. The design will be reflective of the school’s colors and logo and will allow up to three contributors per blog. The more personal the blog, the better.
We have streamlined the launch process, making it easy for you to get started. In just a few weeks, your law school blog will be live and published.
To get started. Please fill out the Law School Blog Questionnaire and make sure to keep in mind the “Ten keys for a successful law student blog.“
