Can I create a new category of articles?

Why create a category of articles

Key points • Categories structure your blog or news • They facilitate navigation and improve hotel SEO • You can add as many categories as needed to your CMS collection

Creating a new category of articles is not only possible, but highly recommended to keep your hotel blog clear and well-segmented. Whether you want to introduce an “Events,” “Travel Tips,” “Seasonal Offers,” or “Hotel Life” category, good editorial organization improves both the user experience and your SEO performance.

To begin, go to your CMS collection dedicated to your articles or news items. Open it to display the list of existing fields. Check if you already have a "Category" field, usually of the type Dropdown Menu, Reference (to another collection) or Plain Text.

If you are using a dropdown menu field, click on it to add a new value corresponding to your new category. This solution is simple but limited if you plan to have many categories.

💡 Tip: Opt for a scalable structure. If your blog or news items are likely to grow, use a collection dedicated to categories.

If you use a separate collection for categories, that's even better. In that case:

  1. Access the “Categories” collection.
  2. Add a new item representing your new category (e.g., “Experiences”, “Promotions”, “Hotel & Services”).
  3. In your collection of articles, your "Category" field is a reference field: you can therefore select the new category for each article.

Next, update your content: open your articles to assign the new category to those that need it. This allows your hotel website to automatically organize the display, especially in filtered lists and dynamic pages.

On your website, each Collection List can then display only the articles corresponding to this new category thanks to dynamic filters. If you have a dedicated category page (a CMS template linked to your categories), it will automatically update as soon as new articles use that tag.

To optimize your SEO: make sure the category has a clear title, a clean slug, a useful description and consistency in your editorial strategy.

Conclusion

Yes, you can easily create a new category of articles. By adding a value to an existing field or creating a dedicated collection, you can permanently structure your hotel blog and improve the user experience.
