Is a guides section better than a traditional blog here?
Yes. For PingView, a practical knowledge base with evergreen guides is stronger than a blog built around random dated posts.
Which guide should I start with?
Start with the topic closest to lost revenue or operational risk. For stores that usually means checkout and payments. For most teams it starts with website availability, SSL, and domain health.
Should guides lead into product pages?
Yes, but naturally. A guide should first help the reader understand the problem, then show the right solution and a sensible next step.
