Reach Out to Customers in a Friendly, Professional Voice

To blog or not to blog, that is the question on many businesses minds.  Here are the top six reasons your business should have a blog:

* Fastest way to get your site indexed by search engines

* Best way to increase your rankings in the search engines-fresh content is king

* Gives your audience (customers) a feel for what you do and how you do it

* Quickest way to get your new information, ideas, products, known to the world

* Blogs are a fantastic way for any business to save time, make money, generate leads, increase visibility, and nail a top position in the search engines.

*Reach out to customers, communicate with them in a voice that is friendly and professional.


I very much appreciate the sentiments in this post by Jennifer Williams at Brazen Careerist. Although it starts out by contradicting my points above, it finishes strong.  It is important to recognize that the benefits of blogging go way beyond the monetary.


This is another post worth looking at from Erum Munir of DotsnDashes Website Design.  In addition to extolling eight benefits of a business blog, it also offers realistic implementation tips. 


Happy blogging!
