Adding a blog to your BigCommerce store can be a great way to give customers more content to read, and to increase your visibility in the search engines. There are a few steps you need to take in order to add a blog to your store, and we’ll walk you through them below.

First, you’ll need to create a new blog post. This can be done by clicking on the “Posts” menu item on the left-hand side of your store’s main page, and then clicking on “New Post.”

Next, you’ll need to provide a title for your post, as well as your blog’s URL. Once you’ve finished this, you’ll need to fill in the details of your post.

This includes the title, a brief summary of the post, and the content.

Once you’ve finished this, you’ll need to add a category to your post. This will help customers find your posts more easily, and will also help you categorize your posts for search engine optimization purposes.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to add a blog to your BigCommerce store, be aware that there are some potential risks. First, if you are not careful, you could end up with duplicate content on your site. Second, if you do not set up your blog properly, it could negatively impact your search engine optimization (SEO).

Finally, you’ll need to add a thumbnail image to your post. This will help customers see a preview of your post before they make a decision to read it.

Once you’ve finished these steps, your blog post will be ready to publish. You can do this by clicking on the “Publish” button on the right-hand side of your post, and then clicking on “Publish.”

Once your blog post has been published, you’ll need to include a link to it in your store’s posts list. You can do this by clicking on the “Posts” menu item on the left-hand side of your store’s main page, and then clicking on “Post Links.”

Once you’ve included a link to your blog post in your store’s posts list, customers will be able to access it from the “Posts” menu item on the left-hand side of your store’s main page, as well as from the “Blog” tab on your store’s front-end.

Overall, adding a blog to your BigCommerce store can be a great way to increase your visibility, and to provide your customers with more content to read.
