How to Manage the Blog

With JuiceBox Content Managing System, managing your website blog is easier than ever. Your blog articles have a tab of their own in the JuiceBox navigation menu on the left, typically named “Articles”.

The main “Articles” tab contains several subtabs:

Categories

Once you click on “Categories”, the list of the blog categories will appear on the right. You can add a new category by clicking on the “Add New” button at the top of the list. Enter the category name, meta URL, meta title, and meta description.

In order to delete a category, simply select it and click on “Delete Selected” button at the top.

You can also easily update the existing categories: click on the “Details” button to the right of the category name. Now, you can change the category name, meta URL, meta title, and meta description.

Tags

Click on the “Tags” subtab, and the full list of the blog articles and corresponding tabs will appear on the right. If you wish to delete any, select the tag, and click on the “Delete Selected” button at the top.

Articles

Navigate to the “Articles” subtab to view the full list of blog articles on the right. Here, you can add, delete, or update your blog posts.

In order to add a new blog article:

1. Click on the “Add New” button at the top.
2. Enter the article name in the “Title” box.
3. Select the publish date in the “Date” Box. You can even schedule your posts for the future!
4. Select the “Publish” check box to publish the article, rather than saving it as a draft.
5. In the “Categories” drop down, select the corresponding article category and click on “Add”.
6. In the “Tags” box, enter the tag and click on “Add” - you can add more than one.
7. In the main “Article Content” box, enter the article text. Make sure to format it properly:
   • Format all the subheadings as “Heading 2”, “Heading 3”,etc.
   • Format all the list items as “Ordered” or “Bullet” list with corresponding buttons.
8. Add links to your blog! Highlight the text you wish to turn into an anchor and click on the “Link” button at the top of the editor. Enter the URL of the page you wish to link to in the “URL” box.
9. Every blog article of an SEO-optimized website requires proper meta tags. Click on the “Show Meta Tags” button at the bottom of the editor. The preview of the Google snippet will appear on the right.
10. In the “Meta URL” box, enter the URL for your new page. Use the name of the article and simply replace all the spaces with hyphens (“-”). Drop all of the stop words, such as “a”, “the”, “if”, “on”, etc.
11. Enter the meta title in the corresponding box. The title should be between 55 and 65 characters in length. If the article is too short, you can add additional words to the meta title, for example your company name or location.
12. In the "Meta Description" box, enter the short description of your article’s topic. Make sure all the words from the meta title are also  included in the description, and the length is somewhere between 140 and 160 characters. It’s a good idea to include a “call to action”, such as “learn more…”, “continue reading…”, etc.
13. Click on “Save” or “Save and Close” button at the bottom of the editor - the new post has been successfully added to the blog!
