Whether you own a construction company, restaurant or any business that relies on customer acquisition, getting yourself noticed can be frustrating. Drawing potential customers and clientele to your website can be complicated. Not only do you have to make sure your site ranks higher in search results on google and other search engines, you want to make sure you are engaging your audience to ensure that they leave your site immediately in favor of one of your competitors. When it comes to attracting attention and engaging your audience on your website, a blog may be the perfect tool.
Increase SEO Performance
Search Engine Optimization, or SEO, is the process of improving your website to increase its visibility when relevant and applicable search terms are triggered during organic searches on search engines such as Google. For example if you had a website with 50 separate pages of cat related articles and pictures, your site would organically rank higher in search results for “cats” than someone else’s site that simply has one page and a single image. The more relevant and fresh content your website has the more visibility your site will have, so if you are attempting to attract more organic web traffic (and who isn’t?) starting a blog can be a great way.
Create Relevant and Reusable Content for Social Media
Businesses these days have multiple social media accounts. Between facebook, instagram, snap, twitter, etc, keeping your business relevant in the digital age requires consistent engagement with those that follow you. Coming up with social media content every week can be tireless, writing a blog for your website creates a resource to pull from and refer to in posts all the while generating traffic back to your website.
