Imagine having to go back and force to fix the title tags, images or any other element of the blog post page once the post is already published. Not very convenient, especially if yours is a high-traffic blog. That's why publishing new blog posts without seeing them on the frontend first might be a disadvantage.
But not with the Shopify Blog App. There is an option to preview blog posts before publication or once they are already published.
Note: this feature is available in the Standard and Pro plans.

To preview blog posts in Shopify:

You can use the preview option to make sure the content looks as expected before you publish a blog post. Moreover, you can also schedule blog posts, so you don't have to worry about publishing them manually at a given date.
