Hey Guys,

As title mentioned, I want to know on each website need to have a blog to SEO better?

I will put it in sub directory like domain.com/blog?

I checked some SEO tools and it said "you have a blog", just wondering that.

A blog can definitely help with SEO but it is not required. Having a blog on your site increases the amount of pages, content, etc that your site has. It gives you other places to use your keywords, internal linking, etc.

If you are comfortably blogging quality content or can pay someone to keep it up for you, it is a good idea.

It is absolutely not required. In fact, having a blog can actually be a negative and screw up your SEO more than help it. If you are using some kind of audit tool that checks whether or not a site has a blog as an SEO factor, I would throw that tool in the garbage. If you paid for it, I would ask for a refund explaining that you assumed the tool was designed by someone that actually understands SEO.

It depends upon the website. If it is an e-commerce website then there is no need to have a blog. If on the other hand it is a website that provides services (web design/development for example), then it would be a good idea to include a blog. The main idea of using a blog is to keep the visitors as long as possible and share a content that they may have liked.
But of course it is absolutely not required.

Blog helped our company's SEO a lot. It's advisable to write articles of 1000+ words that would be useful or fun for your potential customers. Use images and video. Regularly share your blog articles on social networks too.
