ReadingGetting started, lesson 1 of 165 min
Welcome to SiteSmith Blog
SiteSmith Blog is where you write and publish a blog from your Workspace. Each blog has its own address on sitesmith.blog (for example harborandpine.sitesmith.blog) or on your own domain, a designed theme, and tools for readers: members, comments, a newsletter and stats.

All blogs: your blogs, recent views and your plan's use.
What you can do
- Write posts and pages in an editor that saves as you type.
- Add covers, tags, series and search settings to each post.
- Publish now or schedule a post for later.
- Choose a theme, fonts, colors and a menu.
- Let readers sign in as members, comment, and get new posts by email.
- Offer paid memberships for posts you mark for paid members.
- See views and visitors, connect your own domain, and import from another platform.
Free and paid plans
