Is a blog on my art website still a good marketing strategy?

A blog can help people find your website through search engines, but it’s time-intensive. In recent years, there’s been a major cultural shift: people now search for products and artists on social media (like Instagram) rather than Google. Social media lets potential buyers see real-life images, testimonials, and authentic content, which builds trust faster than a blog. If you have the time, a blog is a nice addition, but focus your energy on social media—especially short-form video content like Reels—because it’s easier, faster, and more effective for driving traffic and sales.
