Creating a Blog Using the High Level Blog Builder

Hey all, Bridget Bartlett here with My Vision Agency. Today, I'm excited to show you how to create a blog using the High Level Blog Builder. I'll guide you through the process step-by-step, so whether you're creating a blog or setting up a knowledge base, this tool can definitely help you achieve that. Let's dive in!

Introduction to the High Level Blog Builder

If you're familiar with my blog, you'll notice I've transformed it into more of a knowledge base. This setup allows for a menu and searchable bar at the top, along with endless customization options for your blog's design. You can even integrate a chat widget and much more.

Community Engagement and Resources

If you're part of our reseller program or our free community, feel free to join us in the Open Office Hour session.

Creating Your Blog

Once you’re inside your High Level account, navigate to the 'Sites' section and click on 'Blogs.' You can create a blog from scratch or choose from available templates tailored to niches such as marketing agencies, holistic wellness, life coaching, or real estate. Since most of our members are marketing agencies, I'll proceed with importing a marketing agency template.

Customizing Your Blog

After importing a template, you'll find some sample blog posts. From here, you can edit the blog site, create new posts, or import content. Name your blog, connect your domain, and customize SEO settings like the favicon, tracking codes, and GDPR compliant fonts.

Designing Your Blog Pages

Remember, your blog consists of two key pages: the homepage, which lists all articles, and the blog post page. You can add headers, footers, brand colors, and global sections that ensure consistency across all pages without repeated editing.

Enhancing Functionality and Accessibility

Inside the blog editor, you’ll enjoy functionalities similar to a word processor. Change text size, add images or videos, and even let Content AI assist in generating posts. Each post allows settings for URLs, categories, authors, and metadata to optimize for SEO.

Publishing Your Blog

Once your content is ready, you can publish or schedule it to go live at a specific time. This automation ensures your audience receives fresh content without manual intervention.
