Most of the time, blocks are used to add content or functions to your page, but you can also use them to pull out content extracts or point visitors to other content on your website. You can use these kinds of blocks to highlight things that are important to your business and showcase them in high-visibility locations, such as your homepage or in a sidebar. For example, you could highlight your latest blog posts, display a list of all discounted products, or show a summary of all events happening within the next month. The really cool thing about these types of blocks is that they will automatically be updated anytime you update the source page, making it easier to manage your website and keep it feeling fresh.
