Blogging for Business
It seems as though the latest craze is blogging. Guess what? It is true! Blogging is one of the hottest new trends on the internet for many reasons! I will list a few:
Easy to Update Your Content: When people hire web designers to create their site, usually what happens is the site sits there for about 2 to 5 years (depending on the company’s aggesiveness on the internet), and then they hire another web designer to come in and redo the site again because so much information has changed. This is not the way blogs work! You can update and add new content at any time. In fact, it is strongly encouraged! Google and the other search engines love new content. That leads me to my next reason why blogging is so important!
Blogs are Search Engine Friendly: To put it simply, all of the major search engines love blogs! Blogs have new content on a consistent basis and that is what the search engines are requesting. A 3 year old static website does not stand a chance against a three year old blog with consistently updated content.
RSS Feeds: RSS Feeds are very important for your website marketing. What are they? RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. Imagine that your website has a tail. This tail is your RSS feed. Everything you do is followed by your tail. The RSS feed is a summary of all the new content on your website. It is automatically produced and updated by your blog when you add new content. Ultimately, this RSS feed can then be used to market your blog online for FREE! Yes, I said FREE! There are many ways to market your blog for free simply because it is a blog.

Promotion: Blogs are great for promoting products or your services. Better yet, the descriptions can be modified at any time and prices can be changed on the fly. You won’t even have to contact your web designer to have him do it. Now you can do it yourself and save major money!
