You can create a blog if it serves some purpose like giving additional information, provide documentation, or attract more visitors through organic search. If you already have a traffic source or strategy in mind and the blog is not necessary, then avoid it.

if it's a portfolio site, adding a blog is still a great idea. you can use the blog to post case studies or reviews, talk about your process, and add before & after images.

there is nothing wrong with that, it does not take much effort, and you can post one long-form blog post per week or even monthly. It takes no effort, and there is no downside, with upside of bringing traffic to your site

Yes, a single page website can have a blog, but it's not mandatory, it depends on your main objective, if your website is already performing well, and you're receiving inquiries or sales without needing a blog, it might not be a priority, but if your intention is to attract organic traffic from google or position yourself as a leader in your field, having a blog, even a simple one, can be a game changer for your project.
The technical aspect is simpler than it seems, the most common and recommended approach is to have the blog in a subfolder like site.com/blog, with a link in the main menu that leads to that section, the articles don't need to be integrated into the homepage itself, this maintains the simplicity of your website while adding the SEO power that a blog can provide, you can target long tail keywords and answer specific questions your audience has.
The decision depends on your growth strategy, if you need to be found through searches related to your business, a blog is an ideal tool, if your business relies on referrals or direct traffic, it might not be urgent, there's no rule against it, so if you think it will benefit you, go for it, the blog doesn't compete with your one page website, it complements it.

I've seen blogs help single page sites when they're used to cover related topics and long tail searches. Without additional content, it's often harder to expand organic visibility beyond the main page.
That said, I'd focus on quality over quantity and only publish content that supports the site's primary goal.

Yes, adding a blog helps a lot for SEO and traffic even if your main site is single page, because it gives you more chances to rank and bring visitors.

It helps in targeting question type keywords. Try to post short blogs focusing on queries related to your niche. that will be better for you.

Adding a blog to a single page website can be very helpful. A blog gives you more chances to target different keywords, attract organic traffic, and show expertise in your niche. It also helps keep the site fresh with new content. If you can publish useful articles regularly, a blog is usually a good investment for both seo and credibility.
Usually overkill. if your main goal is seo and traffic, a dedicated blog platform or a separate section on a more robust site is more effective. a single-page site is about focused content, not a sprawling archive. it's better to keep it clean and fast. the overhead of managing a blog within that structure, even a lightweight one, detracts from the core purpose.

If there is anything else you want to publish, then create a blog. If you feel like 1 page is enough, then you don't need a blog.
However, you need backlinks and citations to rank.
