Learn how to choose the right content block for your use case. Compare Hero, Page Header, Rich Text, and more.

With so many block types available, it can be tricky to know which one to use. This guide walks you through the decision process.

Hero vs Page Header

Use the Hero block for landing pages and major section introductions. It supports full-width backgrounds, CTAs, and makes a strong first impression. The Page Header is better for standard content pages—it's simpler and keeps the focus on the content below.

Content Listing for Dynamic Pages

The Content Listing block is perfect for blog indexes, resource collections, and any page that needs to display a list of other pages. Filter by slug prefix (e.g. blog), tags, or show the latest content.

Rich Text for Articles

For long-form content, tutorials, and articles, the Rich Text block is your go-to. It supports HTML, headings, lists, links, and more. Use the narrow or standard max-width for optimal readability.
