Using the Blog feature, you can create and optimize blog posts. The easy-to-use feature allows you to focus on content marketing and SEO optimization, and you can distribute your blog anywhere to attract readers to your blog!
Step 1: Creating Blog Posts with Settings and SEO Details
- Navigate to Sites > Blogs, and you can create a new Blog Post here. Please give it a Title, Description, and Blog Post image.
- Using the editor toolbar, add your content and customize the font, images, etc.
- Customize font styles and designs.
- Add indentations and various list formats, including numbered, bulleted, and to-do.
- Add image(s) and/or video(s) from your Media Library
- You can also add YouTube videos or insert hyperlinks
- Save your changes.
- Once you’ve added the content, you must set up the details for your blog. This includes:
- URL Slug: the path for your post
- Category (determined from blog settings)
- Keywords
- Author (determined from blog settings)
- After setting up the details, you can publish them immediately, schedule them for a certain day and time to post, or keep them saved in draft mode.
Step 2: Adding a Website or Funnel with the Blog Post List Element
NOTE: This funnel or website page will be your main Blog page with all your blog posts.
- Create a new Funnel / Website, or add a step/page to an existing one.
- Within the step, go to the edit button.
- Click on the element titled “Blog Post List.”
- Choose the element and type of layout - either Standard or Compact
- Make any additional customizations you wish to set up
- Add the Domain to the site within Funnel / Website Settings.
- If you want the blog page to open when you enter your Domain without any path, you can navigate to Settings > Domains > Edit Domain> Select the blog page as the default page. You can set it up so that the blog opens at blog.thedemoaccount.com instead of blog.thedemoaccount.com/home
Step 3: How do domains work within the blog?
You add the Domain to the Funnel or Website where the blog element is added. Here is a Blog URL format example:
- Domain: XYZ.com
- Slug of the post: b/sample-demo
- Final URL: XYZ.com/b/sample-demo
Pro Tips:
- Categories: Blog Post details will require a Category. You can add multiple categories.
- Category details such as name, slug, and SEO details can be customized within Blogs Settings.
- Blog Author and Keywords are optional. Author details can be customized in Blogs Settings with a name, photo, and social media information. Keywords can be set from the “publish” section.
