Blog content must be adapted to the needs of your customers but not only the content, images must also be consistent with content and with the other colors of the blog; and colors used in the blog, in line with the brand style colors. Keep in mind that the colors convey emotions, so you must convert the values ​​to apply colors on your blog and content.
