Just added the tumblr widget and created a tumblr account a little bit ago. I filled out all the basics on the tumbler website for my profile and settings, added the widget to my yola website and connected to it by entering in my tumblr username as requested. I checked 3 times for typos in my username to see if I goofed up, there were no typo errors. But for some reason the blog does not show up at all. All I see is a narrow white rectangle box that shows nothing and I have tried refreshing the page, exiting out of browser etc. but no change. Help please? My yola site is not published yet as I am still working on the basics, I want it to look nice before publishing. Does my site have to be published first before the blog will show up?

I already checked that before I made this post because I saw other people mentioning that in previous topics. I am using black text on white background. That rectangle was only around 80 px tall by like 950 px wide, the size of a very slender banner and dragging/highlighting over it with the mouse does nothing at all. No text appears. I have checked my settings elsewhere and it's not a sizing issue either. I am very OCD about stuff like this so I can assure you I have already
checked multiple times to make sure my text settings were okay and made sure I did not somehow resize the widget from my tumblr account.
Every successful website needs a blog that is built in, otherwise the blog does nothing for the sites SEO if the blog is an embedded widget on only one page. Google likes blogs that are integrated into separate pages, which means more chances to get seen in search. I know Yola keeps saying they decided not to focus on the blog aspect but when dozens of people are unhappy about it and having problems with tumblr left and right, the decision to still ignore the demand for an official blog is not very good for PR. Even Yola has a blog.

Hello, i agree, yola is a nice sitebuilder but if you check any website builder comparison chart you will see that yola loses one star just becouse dont have a blog.
Solutions - So if you want a blog to increase your business chances to be found online, just follow the yola advice, choose another site builder.
