Blogging, the simple act of keeping an online journal, might seem to have little relevance to businesses - however a blog is a powerful communications tool that can work in many ways for your business.

At its most simple, a blog can be set up as an easy to update way to provide news and information about a business, services or products and can fulfil this purpose even for those of you who have websites that you can't update yourself.

If you include a link from your blog post back to your website, this can help with your link building and so help move your website up in the search engine results.

If your blog posts are well optimised for the search engines you could find your blog being returned when people are searching for the topic of your blog.

A well written blog will also raise your profile as an expert in our field. This will help with word-of-mouth [aka viral marketing] and you may even find your blog being mentioned in the media. This latter option has had a really positive effect on a number of bloggers, pushing up reader numbers and even leading to publishing deals.

Many people I meet don't think they have anything to say, but that's only their self-censorship kicking in. I read blogs from a wide variety of sources, technology journalists, news journalists, celebrities and interesting people. If you're interested, you can have a look at some of the blogs I look at.

If you are wondering how I keep up, it's easy. I don't read every single post and I use Outlook to download the latest updates. This makes it really easy since they can be treated like emails, all accessed in one place

And best of all, all of the best blog applications are free.

We can set up your blog for you and can even write your posts if you wish.

So, if you are interested in exploring how writing a blog could help your business, simply get in touch, call 01793 23 80 20, or email and we can explore ways that blogging could work for your business.
