  • Why Every Business Should Have a Blog

    Blog

    Ever notice how blog posts often top results for major keyword searches? That is because a blog can get crazy link juice from other bloggers – often faster than you can build links to your website. If you are smart and add a blog to your list of musthaves, you can link your blog back to your website and pass some of that link love (and traffic!) along.

    A well established blog can significantly boost the visibility of your brand. It can even help establish your website as the authority place to go for information!  Every business needs a blog, so quit making excuses and just do it.

    Why does a blog help you, and how do they find their way to the top of the SERPs so fast? A thoroughly established blog with freshly added content will be spidered by Google often. This can lead to such great things as  ranking #1 in Google for relevant keyword phrases on the very same day as posting.

    You don’t have to post a dozen times a day – just produce great content regularl;y and get people to follow your blog ad link to it, Use the best SEO practices and keyword optimize for best results. Use dates and events to increase search significance.

    Here are some very good reasons you need a blog, which I have mentioned before – all or any of these are good reasons to have a blog of your own!
