Web Stories is a tool through which a blogger can get traffic quickly, much like in the case of YouTube shorts, so you can say that it is like shorts, but for the blogger only, not for YouTubers.
Stories get much faster traction than normal blog posts, so why shouldn't you use them? You can use them to bring traffic and earn money, too, because you can monetize the stories with Google AdSense.
