What are block strings good for?

People talk about block-strings as a good thing , but my understanding of a block-string is its a combo that has been blocked.

So my question is, how can you use this to your advantage? Or do I just not understand what a block string is?

Block strings are quite useful for building meter. Another use is pressure. It can lead to grab setups, Overheads, or Command Grabs. Block strings are in every match of Street Fighter. But knowing how to apply them can make you a better player.
