Great question, What i use is a link in the footer to my dashboard.

Once your logged in to your account any link to the Blogger homepage will bring you to your homepage.

So just add this code to your sidebar or footer :

<a href="http://www.blogger.com" target="_blank">Blogger</a>
Now you can click this to get to your dashboard.

You can also add a link to your 'Create a post' page and 'Layout Page'.

In your dashboard click 'New Post' then copy the URL address in the address bar at the top of your screen :
remove navbar blogger
Now put that URL into a link as shown below :

<a href="PUT-URL-HERE">New Post</a>


Replace PUT-URL-HERE with the URL you copied from your new post page.

You can do the same for your layout page, settings page or any page.Don worry about putting links to your pages on your profile only people logged into your account will be able to access them.
