So here it is, the announcement you’ve all been waiting for: we just released a new blog feature!
Our new blog feature provides you with all the benefits of blogging combined with the ease-of-use you’ve come to know from Wix. That means an easy drag-and-drop interface, full control over your template’s design and the freedom to post, re-edit, and update content as often as you like.
Why You Should Choose Wix’s Blog Platform
- Consistency: easily add your new blog to your already existing Wix website
- Adding a Blog to your Wix website can do wonders to your search engine ranking and online visibility
- Your clients/fans will be able to view and comment on your posts using their Facebook, Yahoo, Hotmail or AOL log-ins
- Use the blog’s comment feature to better communicate with and learn about your clients/fans
- A blog gives your product/service a voice, personality and a name people can connect with
- A blog enhances clients’ loyalty and increases guest retention

Hey Shelli,
Is it possible you’re using the HTML5 editor? The blog feature is currently available on Flash templates only. W intend to add it to HTML as well in the near future.
Cheers!

Cheers!
I love wix and how easy it is to navigate etc..
I WISH WISH WISH I could add more to my blog for example, a subscribe to email button on the right, a mini Etsy store widget so that everyone is in the KNOW, I’d also like the ability to see the social media buttons at the top of each blog post and at the bottom. I read somewhere on the net that when users see these on both the top and bottom of a post, these readers are more likely to share within their social media networks.
Is there a chance I missed a tutorial on how to add widgets to the blog or does this not exist?
Hey Kristal,
Thanks for the feedback! We’d really appreciate it if you could also post these requests on the Wix Wishlist:

Hi just wanted to give you a brief heads
up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading properly. I’m not
sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different browsers and both show the same outcome.
