Blogs are key for your website if you want to get your view across on relevant topics, relay exciting company updates to your users, or improve your keyword rankings within Google as part of your SEO content strategy. Luckily, Vennture Media Hub makes it very easy and simple to create blogs for your website.

To add a new blog post, within the Vennture Media Hub, navigate to the media items section in the left-hand menu, then click on the 'Add Media' button and select 'Blog' from the drop-down menu that appears.

This opens up the next window where you can populate all the relevant fields for your blog - each of these is explained below:

Title: The title of your blog.
Sticky or Featured: You can tick one or both of these to have your blog displayed in certain places on your media hub webpage - learn more about these here.

Post Date: You can use the date selector to choose a post date for your blog or type the date manually in the DD/MM/YYYY format. This data can be in the future, or you can backdate your posts if you wish.
Image: This is the header image that appears at the top of each blog post - this should ideally be uploaded in an aspect ratio of 1920x1080 pixels.

Author: To choose the author for your blog, click on the field, then select the relevant person or people from the drop-down list. If you want to add a new author, you can do this by clicking on the + icon next to the field, which gives you further fields to fill in to create a new author ready for you to use.
Tags and Categories: Like the author field, you can select multiple tags and categories for your blog by selecting from the drop-down list. If you want to add new tags or categories, you can use the + icon on each of these fields.

Read Time: Fill this in to give your user an idea of how long your blog takes to read.
Content: This is where you add your article in full, which can contain text, headings, images, hyperlinks, and more, as this field is equipped with a full text editor. Content added here can be as long or short as you like, as there is no character limit.
Meta Data: There are three fields for you to fill in here - meta description, meta keywords, and meta canonical. These are not required, but it is good SEO practice to have them filled in. For more guidance and information on meta tags, see our guide here.

Once you have filled in all your relevant fields, you can hit the Save button and display your new blog on your website.
