Only if you will sustain it.

THE HONEST QUESTION

Will you publish consistently for at least a year?

If not, do not create one. An abandoned blog with a last post from 2021 signals a neglected business, which is worse than having no blog.

IF YOU WILL

Publish on a schedule you can sustain. Once a month, indefinitely, beats ten posts and silence.

WHAT TO WRITE ABOUT

Questions customers ask Practical guidance in your field Explanations of things customers find confusing Local information relevant to your work

WHAT NOT TO WRITE ABOUT

Company news nobody searches for Generic industry commentary Anything written because you needed to publish something

MAINTAINING IT

Update older posts that are still accurate but out of date Remove or update anything wrong Check that old posts still reflect your current services and prices

IF YOU HAVE ALREADY ABANDONED ONE

Either restart it, or remove the dates so the neglect is less visible, or remove the section entirely.

THE ALTERNATIVE

A frequently asked questions page, which serves a similar purpose and does not imply a publishing schedule.
