eCommerce Blogging Module

The built-in blog is a Shift4Shop module that enables blogging functionality as a feature of your online store. You can use the blog to post news, updates, and other information about your store and products as you see fit. Blogging can be very beneficial for your website, not only as a means of communication with your customers, but as a means of increasing your search engine rankings through posting useful and authoritative content.

Shift4Shop’s built-in blog includes all the major blogging functionality including post categories and archives, a commenting feature with the option to use Disqus Comments, and more. As a benefit of being built into your Shift4Shop store, the blog can perfectly match your site’s theme to ensure a consistent look across your entire website, which is difficult to achieve with an outside blogging platform.

Built-In Blog Module Testimonials

“Since I started blogging, I’ve seen traffic go up substantially as people are finding my site due to Google searches. I try to make an informative post every week, relating to my products and industry, and people are finding my store through these posts. Everything is set up for SEO, and if I get tired of writing the blogs myself I can get 3dcart’s excellent blogging service. It helps a lot.”
