00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:03.720
Share useful advice with a blog post on your website.

2
00:00:03.720 --> 00:00:10.280
We’ll create a home-care checklist, review the draft, and walk through the publishing controls.

3
00:00:10.700 --> 00:00:16.958
Before you start, an administrator must enable Blog for your business and connect a compatible website.

4
00:00:16.958 --> 00:00:22.860
If Blog is missing or the website is not ready, ask your administrator to complete that setup first.

5
00:00:23.300 --> 00:00:28.034
Open Blog in your business workspace and choose New article.

6
00:00:28.034 --> 00:00:29.426
Add a clear title.

7
00:00:29.426 --> 00:00:35.273
The slug becomes part of the article address, so keep it short and readable.

8
00:00:35.273 --> 00:00:40.100
Add an excerpt that briefly explains what readers will learn.

9
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:43.349
Write your article in the Article body.

10
00:00:43.349 --> 00:00:48.848
The editor supports Markdown, with a formatting toolbar for common elements.

11
00:00:48.848 --> 00:00:53.348
Use headings to organize the post and lists for practical steps.

12
00:00:53.348 --> 00:00:58.680
Switch between Write, Split, and Preview to check how the formatting looks.

13
00:00:59.100 --> 00:01:00.975
Check the author and tags.

14
00:01:00.975 --> 00:01:06.345
A cover image is optional; if you add one, include useful alternative text.

15
00:01:06.345 --> 00:01:12.993
Search and sharing includes an optional search title, description, and canonical address.

16
00:01:12.993 --> 00:01:17.340
Review these details along with the article before you save.

17
00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:22.240
Select the Save draft button to keep your work without publishing it.

18
00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:25.680
Read through the saved draft and check the preview.

19
00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:31.680
Make sure the title, links, formatting, and any image description are ready for readers.

20
00:01:32.100 --> 00:01:34.945
When ready, choose Publish and confirm.

21
00:01:34.945 --> 00:01:39.547
Publishing starts a website build, so allow time for it to finish.

22
00:01:39.547 --> 00:01:41.722
We’ve shortened the wait here.

23
00:01:41.722 --> 00:01:44.399
Use Check build to refresh the status.

24
00:01:44.399 --> 00:01:50.340
Once the article shows Published, choose Open live article and review the real page.

25
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:55.366
Your post is now live.

26
00:01:55.366 --> 00:02:00.280
Keep future articles clear, useful, and easy to read.
