Why Is A Blog Important for Your Business?

Blogs have come a long way since their inception in the late ’90s. They have gone mainstream and transformed from articles to vlogs and more. It doesn’t seem that this type of communication is going away anytime soon either. In fact, for business, it’s more important than ever. As a business, you probably have a lot to say, and we’re not just referring to the Chatty Cathy of the office. Although, this may be a good person to task for creating content for your blog… like we do.

Driving Traffic to Your Website

Your website is your hub. That’s where you want people to go to check out your products, services, you, whatever it may be. Having a blog with the appropriate SEO, keywords, and articles with appropriate topics will get people going to your website and, hopefully, staying there long enough to click through multiple blogs and pages. We definitely recommend having inbound links in your blog posts for this. (Linking to other pages on your site.)

Proving You’re A Leader

People typically use blogs to research a company. Let’s be real, you know your “stuff”. Prove it to those in your industry, potential clients, etc. A blog post gives you the opportunity to provide an in-depth look at what you do, your knowledge, your services, that you are current and up to date at one is going on in your field. Not to mention, you can even show that you’re ahead of the curb.

Creating Customer Relationships

As previously mentioned, a blog is a great way to establish you’re a leader in your industry. Well, by doing that, you’re showing that you, and your brand, are trustworthy. There is plenty of less than trustworthy information floating around the internet. By creating a well written and consistent blog with a voice for your brand, you can build trust with your clients. Social Media does this as well, but it’s only a snapshot of what you can do with a blog.

Good luck on your blog writing ventures!
