Adding a blog to your business's website is a great way to encourage customer loyalty and supplement your visibility to search engines.

Tips for creating a successful blog
You can configure your blog to appear the way you want it to. For example, you can decide how many posts show up on your blog or how big the font size on your blog is.
To add a blog to your site:
- Click Websites Manager in the left navigation menu. Then, click Edit Site.
- Click Insert in the top toolbar and mouse over the text element. Select blog from the secondary drop-down list.
- This will open up a small window asking you to setup a name and description for your blog.
- The last step will be to use the Blog Settings editor on the right side of the screen to customize your blog. You can also click on "New" to start your first post.
Tips for creating a successful blog
- Post often. The more you post the more "fresh" your website will be, and search engines may rank your site higher because of it.
- Keep posts short. Shorter posts are more likely to be read all the way through by your readers.
- Promote it. Tell your friends about your blog. Share links to your blog articles in your social networks like Facebook and LinkedIn.
- Encourage subscriptions. Your blog has an RSS feed that viewers can subscribe to so they can be alerted when you post a new topic.

I am having a problem getting the big commerce blog to work properly in mu big commerce store. I'm using the integral blog feature but the configuration screens differ from those in the tutorial.
I posted one entry and a link displays at the bottom of my welcome (home) page. I had to manually create a link to the navigation bar, but there is no blog index page.
Please see: http://stores.militaryhistoryshop.com/
Thanks,
Diane

Linking Blog posts to page on website.
Second attempt to ask this question... I added a blog page to my website. I previously created blog posts and I can see them under manage accounts/blog; however, I can not figure out how to link the blog to the actual blog page on the website.
Also, is there a way to add a picture to the blog post.
This is my second attempt to utilize the blog feature and for some reason it seems way more complicated than it should be...

To add a blog you instructed go to insert "more" and select "blog" but "blog" does not exist as an option when I tried it..
I am wanting to add a blog to my existing website. you posted an employee answer on how to do this about a year ago. I followed the instructions to go to "website manager," "insert" "more" and select the "blog" option. In the post it had the icon and was among the options. On my website today, "blog" is not an option. Can you give me further guidance on this. So far, feeling frustrated! You need to delete outdated answers to questions.
