Summary

In this chapter, we focused on creating the structure and style for your blog, which will add updated content to your website and drive readers to the site that you’ve built. We covered how to create a blog page and a blog post. You now know how to modify the design of both, how to add tags and categories, and how to prepare your posts for optimal search engine visibility.

Now that you know how to create content on your website, in the next chapter, we’re going to discuss member areas and the ways you can protect your work and build a membership community. This topic will flow into different parts of your website, including email marketing, and I’m excited to begin tying this all together as we get closer to launching your website.
