Your Crevio blog lets you publish articles directly on your storefront. Use it to share updates, tutorials, behind-the-scenes content, or anything that builds trust with your audience and drives them toward your products.

Creating a blog post

1

Go to Blog

Open Blog in your dashboard and click New post.
2

Write your post

Enter a title (3 to 200 characters) and write your content using the rich text editor. The editor supports formatting, headings, lists, links, images, and more.
3

Add a featured image

Upload a featured image that appears at the top of the post and in blog listing pages. This is the primary visual for your article.
4

Assign a category (optional)

Select a category to organize your post. Categories help readers browse related content and keep your blog structured.
5

Publish or schedule

Choose when to make the post live. You can publish immediately, save as a draft, or schedule it for a future date.

Post statuses

Every blog post has one of four statuses:
StatusMeaning
DraftThe default status for new posts. Draft posts are not visible on your storefront. Use this while you are still writing or editing.
PublishedThe post is live on your storefront and visible to visitors. A published-at timestamp is set automatically when you publish.
ScheduledThe post will be published automatically at the date and time you specify. Until then, it is not visible on your storefront.
ArchivedThe post is hidden from your storefront. Use this to retire a post without deleting it.
You can move a post between statuses at any time. Scheduling a post requires setting a future date and time — Crevio automatically publishes it when that moment arrives.

Scheduled publishing

Set a future date and time to have a post go live automatically. When you set a post’s status to Scheduled:
  1. You choose the exact date and time for publication
  2. The post remains hidden from your storefront until then
  3. At the scheduled time, Crevio automatically transitions the post to Published
Scheduled publishing is great for content calendars. Write a batch of posts in advance and schedule them throughout the week to maintain a consistent publishing cadence.

Categories

Organize your blog posts with categories. Each category has:
  • A name (2 to 50 characters, unique per account)
  • An optional description (up to 500 characters)
  • An auto-generated slug for its URL
Categories help readers find related posts and give your blog a structured navigation. Each post can belong to one category. Categories with no posts are hidden from blog navigation by default. Each blog post supports two types of images:
Image typePurpose
Featured imageAppears at the top of the post and on blog listing pages. This is the main visual for the article.
Social media imageUsed as the Open Graph image when the post is shared on social platforms (X, Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack, etc.). If not set, the featured image is used as a fallback.
Upload a dedicated social media image with your post title or key visual baked in. This makes your links stand out in social feeds and messaging apps.

SEO metadata

Each blog post has optional SEO fields that control how it appears in search engines and social previews:
  • SEO title — Up to 60 characters. Displayed as the page title in search results.
  • SEO description — Up to 160 characters. Displayed as the snippet beneath the title in search results.
If you leave these blank, Crevio uses the post title and excerpt as defaults.

Excerpts

Every post has an excerpt — a short summary shown in blog listing pages and RSS feeds. You can:
  • Write a custom excerpt — Enter your own summary text for full control over how the post is previewed
  • Let Crevio auto-generate it — If you leave the excerpt blank, Crevio strips the HTML from your content and truncates it to 200 characters as a preview
Writing a custom excerpt gives you control over the preview text readers see before clicking into the full post. A compelling excerpt can significantly improve click-through rates on your blog index.

Blog indexability

Control whether search engines can index your blog posts using the indexable toggle. By default, all published posts are indexable. When indexability is turned off for a post:
  • Search engines are instructed not to index the page
  • The post is still accessible via its URL, but it will not appear in search results
This is useful for:
  • Time-sensitive announcements you do not want lingering in search results
  • Internal-facing content shared via direct link
  • Posts you want to soft-launch before making discoverable
