From an SEO professional perspective, all sites should have an active blog/news/articles page. This can be named anything, as long as it is an active page where new content can be added and will be discovered by Google.
The importance of writing new articles on your site is now becoming more important, thousands of new businesses are opening and as a reflection there will be more websites competing against yours. It is important that as your business flourishes, as does your website!
The easiest way to ensure Google can see your website is still active we recommend adding a blog page. This is a great place to not only update people changes about the business, but your passion!
The blog page doesn't require to be one of your main headers, this can be rather added within the footer of your site.
We recommend adding 1 blog minimum a month about any subject/topic relevant to your business, the optimal amount is 350-500 words per page, making sure this is all unique content. As a separate service we do also offer SEO blog writing services.

Most importantly you need to ensure that every article is located on a unique page and not all on one page as this defeats the purpose of newly discovered pages with search engines.
