No, a blog isn't required. But it can help. Posts that answer real customer questions, like "Why does my water heater pop?", can bring people from Google to your site.
To write one, click Blog in the left menu under the Your Website heading.
- Write your post using the simple toolbar: bold, headings, lists, and photos.
- Give the post a main photo.
- Save it as a draft, schedule it for a date, or publish it now.
Keep in mind that Google takes weeks or months to notice new posts. This is a slow, steady help, not an overnight one.
Why this matters
Every good post is another door into your site. Answer the questions customers already ask, and Google can send those searchers to you.
