About this template

Xtra Blog is a free multi-page HTML CSS blog template from TemplateMo, built on Bootstrap 4, that pairs a sticky left navigation bar with a right-side content area for blog posts, search, and static pages.

What is Xtra Blog?

Xtra Blog is a multi-purpose HTML CSS blog template created by TemplateMo and released on 16 July 2020. It uses a two-column layout: a sticky left-side menu bar that scrolls independently and a right side that displays page content. The template includes a search box, single post elements, an about page, and a contact page, and it is designed to be extended with more pages as needed.

Key Features

  • Sticky left menu bar — The left sidebar is fixed and independently scrollable, keeping navigation visible while the right column scrolls through content.
  • Multi-page structure — Includes separate about and contact pages plus a single-post layout, enough for a small blog out of the box.
  • Bootstrap 4 foundation — Styled with Bootstrap 4, giving a responsive grid and standard components that are easy to customize.
  • Built-in search box — A search field is included for filtering posts or other content from the blog.
  • Business and digital-marketing oriented — Tagged for business and digital-marketing use, the layout suits corporate and marketing blogs.
  • Free for commercial and non-commercial use — Download, edit, and reuse freely; no license fee or attribution requirement is mentioned.

Who is it for?

  • Bloggers — Publish articles using the included single-post page and search box; duplicate the existing post layout to add new entries.
  • Small business owners — Use the about and contact pages to present company details and capture inquiries, with the sticky menu keeping visitors oriented.
  • Web designers — Use the template as a starting point for client sites, extending the multi-page structure with additional HTML pages.
