The advantage of adding a blog to your WordPress website is that you will be able to post content regularly, which does two important things:

1. The more blog content on your website, the more pages that are indexed in Google and this increases the chances of SEO ranking for search phrases that your customers may be searching on Google.

2. Secondly, a blog serves to position you as an expert in your field. For example, if you have blog posts about your industry or products that are interesting to read, this will create trust in the eyes of the buyer and position your company as one that knows what they are talking about, in that particular industry.

3. Adding a blog is also great because when you post fresh content regularly, this is seen as favorable in the eyes of Google, improving your chances of ranking better for SEO.

Thanks. I wasted a lot of time browsing random videos. Your tutorial was to the point and exactly what I was looking for

[RobSnowden]

2023 - My first Blog using Wordpress - all I need to know is here in this video. Tthank you for posting.

[leyaringo]

I would like to say thank you for helping me. Among all of the video tutorial I've watched, yours is the only video that gives clear and direct explanation. Great job!

[bluehandmafia]

Every other video out there wants to waste my time.. I want to make videos and build websites. I am glad I found someone that knows what they are doing.. Thank you!!

[digitalreality]

It can be difficult to search this topic. Most videos go into the whole process of setting up a website, while this one is straight to the point. Well done.

[shinyhappyfingers]

I looked at no more than a minute of each of a dozen not very helpful videos before I found this one. Thank you! You take the time to ensure my screen looks like yours before getting started instead of just clicking random boxes like I know what you're doing. Kudos to you! In addition, you don't cover up what you're saying with unnecessary music, and your voice is nice to listen to. I was able to open up my blog and toggle back and forth to set up right along with you. Thanks again. 🙂

I wish I had found you 10 years ago....just the classic editor tip was worth it. thanks.

[Qualitarianlifestyle]

Thanks, so easy and straight forward, I have been struggling with this for days and your post was the only to the point and easy not selling me unnecessary stuff.
Thank you

[tinaharrison]

Amazing to see our old friend the classic editor! Thank you so much for this!

[johnmoriasi]

Mad respect brother! The world needs such people!!

[EnglishSquared]

Deepest thank! It is rare to find someone who posts such clear focused videos. I think you explained in 15 minutes what it takes some people an hour to explain (-;

[erasmorivera]

You are a life saver. Thank you I always wanted to add a blog to my site but I couldn't figure it out. I appreciate you. God bless!

[Neoxenon]

Thank you. This video was a GREAT help! Was struggling to find instructions until I found your video. Great explanation!

[topstorekorea]

Very useful video indeed!
I watch tons of other blog related videos and many of them just spend so much time on how to adjust fonts, size, uploading image, videos, and yada yada and then, gives you their URL on how to download their layout for a price.
This video get to the point of how to set blog page, then post page, menu, and others to start the whole blogging process. We don't need 5-10 minutes of lessons on how to change the font, size, and so on.

[tokelohlagala]

I know very little about websites, but it took just one view at this video and I was able to create a blog on our website, can’t thank you enough 🤝🍻🍻

[TerryClarkAccordioncrazy]

Excellent - I got my blog up and running right away with your clear instructions, thanks!

[KristinaKarpanuk]

Spend all day trying to fix it, thank you so much ❤

[nanmarshall]

Thank you!! I also had to watch a bunch of non-helpful videos before finding yours. All the steps worked as advertised. I appreciated the tip about adding the Classic Editor, which I was already a bit familiar with and very much missed.

[lindymills]

Amazing - rarely do I find a video where everything is relevant and clear to my needs - a great find, if I could like the video a hundred times I would!

[margsmobilenotary]
