Top 5 Benefits of Blogging for your website
Regular Blogging |
Blogging, or “weblogging,” is the
art of updating a webpage regularly with content written in a conversational
tone. While less formal that most business communications, it is no less
important to the effectiveness of your business’s online marketing strategy.
Read on to learn about the top five benefits of blogging for business.
1. Brand Development
Blogging also helps in the
establishment of your brand voice. Clients and customers love brands that have
personality!
2. Drive traffic to your website
Blogging does n-number of
important things for web traffic. Not least of these is the benefit of keeping
the content on your site changing and up to date (something the search engines
loves) but it also produces more and more indexed pages for your site which in
turn help drive traffic through organic search.
Blogging also helps you get
discovered via social media sharing. Every time you write a piece online and
share it, you are producing content that others can share too. Using Twitter,
Facebook, LinkedIn etc exposes you and your business to so many new people who
don’t know you yet.
This sharing also keeps your
social media profile active and growing. You don’t have time to ‘do’ social
media – well, you do now!
3. Increases search engine traffic
In terms of search engine
rankings, I like to think of blogging as fishing. The more hooks you have in
the water, the more likely you are to catch a fish. In the same way, as you add
more content to your site; more pages from your domain become indexed in search
engines. This improves organic search visibility and increases website traffic.
4. Demonstrate your expertise
A blog attached to your website
allows you the ability to become a ‘trusted advisor’ for your customers and in
your business sector. It can make you appear a marketing ‘innovator’; at the
cutting edge of contemporary developments or news in the industry but also
allows your customers a chance to understand who you are and what your business
is about in more depth.
Use your blog to demonstrate your
company’s knowledge and skills, this helps your customers gain trust in your
services as you are in a way proving that you can do what you say you can do.
5. Increases leads
Research shows that the more
pages a site has the more leads it gets. According to Hubspot, businesses with
401-1000 pages of content get 6x more leads than those with 51-100. In simple
terms, the more you blog, the more leads you generate. More content means more
form submissions, more email opt-ins; more quote requests, and ultimately, more
sales.
