Blogging 101 – Why it’s Right For Your Business
March 15, 2010 at 2:35 am Leave a comment
These days it seems that everyone tells you to add a blog to your website. You might be wondering why. After all, at first glance, it can seem to be yet another ‘thing’ to take up your time. But there are important reasons to do so. Here are three of them:
- Marketing
Because content can easily be added to blogs, you can put current marketing information in an easy to read format. For example, was there a comparison test conducted where a model that you sell came in first place? Note it in your blog. Have you started offering a new service that will differentiate you from your competitors? Note it in your blog. Are you having a special event coming up? Announce it in your blog. A blog can also be important for getting Google to index your site. As you add fresh content, it can help increase your page rank. And finally, the brief articles on your blog give people a link that they can spread through other social media avenues, thus increasing the reach of your site.
- Customer Education
One of the main reasons that customers visit your website is to gather information. While you have their attention, why not provide some value added content to help them remember your site? For example, teach them how to prep their car for winter. Or show them what to check before taking it on a long trip. Teach them something special about the way the brand you represent is engineered, thus helping them appreciate the value of that brand. What are their side interests and concerns? Write a brief, informational post that appeals to those interests.
-Product Placement
Last but not least, a blog helps you dispense quick bits of information relating to your product and services. Is buzz building about a certain model that will be released soon? Post the latest information about it. Is there a feature that makes your vehicles unique, or did the manufacturer release a hot new technology? Let everyone know through your blog.
Those are just three of the most basic reasons why adding a blog to your site can be beneficial. It’s relatively simple to do, easy to update, and can help you reach your target audience in a new and exciting way. Since it’s something that gets regularly updated, it’s a reason to email the people on your email list. Chances are, you can add it to what you already have in place. Why not find out just how easy it can be to add this to your current site?
