Blog

An internal blog is a communication tool within an intranet used to share updates, insights, news, and announcements across departments or company-wide.

Unlike public blogs, intranet blogs are visible only to employees. They're used for operational transparency, team morale, leadership updates, and searchable staff communication. Posts can be tagged, archived, and linked to relevant policies or forms.

What an Intranet Blog Typically Includes

  • Employee announcements or shoutouts
  • Leadership messages or weekly updates
  • Department news, goals, and progress
  • Policy changes or operational notices
  • Tagged archives and post scheduling

Why It Matters

A well-used blog promotes transparency, improves engagement, and creates a searchable history of internal communication. It replaces scattered emails with a single place for updates employees can actually find and reference.
