Why keep blog infrastructure simple?

Many teams start with external blog tools, then outgrow them when they need tighter control over SEO, content structure, and site performance.

A markdown-first workflow gives you:

• Version-controlled content
• Predictable publishing pipelines
• Better control of on-page metadata

SEO foundations that actually matter

For each blog post, make sure you include:

• Unique title and description
• Open Graph and Twitter metadata
• Semantic heading hierarchy
• Internal links to product pages and docs

You should also generate structured data for articles so search engines can understand your content type and publication dates.

Keep publishing friction low

A lightweight blog should be easy to update by non-engineers too.

Start with markdown files now, then add a simple editor layer later if your team needs it.
