Do I really need a "Blog"?

[bcglf]

Hello Moz community,

I have a question about creating content on a new website that we just launched. Do we really need an area called a "Blog"? It's a financial website and the network admins have some security concerns about placing a blogging application such as Wordpress on the server because of PCI regulations.

Can an area such as one called "Resources" where you list articles or posts be just as effective as a "blog"?

It is Absolutely fine if you create a resource page and Start listing your Articles.. Just Do create Sitemaps and Internal linking b/w pages So that search Engines can find your Articles pages.

The Purpose of adding Wordpress blog is that Many People do not know Programming and design So they easily install it and find a good design theme and get started in matter of hours.

I suppose that you do not have that Problem then Go ahead and Do it the way you like. Just Keep your Website updated with fresh content

thanks

A blog is just a list of articles and posts anyways, so it sounds like you're actually writing a blog anyways.
