When it comes to marketing your company digitally, blogging is a great place to start. It's an easy way to get information out there, and establish your business as a reputable, knowledgeable source for all things related to your industry. The only problem is that blogs aren't as effective as they could be if you're not taking the right approach. How can you take this simple idea and make it more powerful? How can you make sure that your blog is working for you and not the other way around? Read on to find out how you can get the most out of your blogs.
Before we start, however, we need to cover some basics of how a blog works. The main purpose of a blog for your company website, is to post content that ranks high in search engines, and so when people search for different topics, they are suggested your blog post. If they choose to click on it, you're getting people to be aware of your company's existence and if you're lucky, they may even stay for a bit. This is one of the ways you can get traffic on your website to increase. How exactly does your blog post rank higher in the search engines? Through search engine optimization. An example of this is the use of keywords- every blog should have keywords which are placed as naturally as possible within the content of your blog's first paragraph, and sprinkled throughout the rest of your blog so that it is optimized to rank high on search engines bring you the most traffic possible.
And now on to how you can get the most out of your blogs:
When you rack your brains to come up with creative content ideas, don't just think about what would be useful for your company and how you can market yourself. Think about the people who will be reading your blog in search of information, and cater to their needs in a way that is engaging and entertaining so they want to read more. Make them feel like they're learning something new, and interesting.
The writing style you use to write your blogs can also affect how much traffic it gets you. Make your blog stand out from the rest by being creative. There are so many different ways to write a blog, try them all and see which one you prefer.
How often you blog is up to you, but if people are expecting a new post every day and they only see one for the week... there's going to be disappointment. It's a good idea to have a schedule that you stick to. This gives your readers a timeframe for when to come back and check up on your blog, and it also makes blogging a more regular part of their routines.
In today's world where everyone is connected 24/7 thanks to the internet, social media is a great way to keep in touch with your readers and encourage them to come back for more.
Make an account on Facebook and Instagram, and post regular updates about your blog as well as other interesting things people might want to know about you. This way you're not just directly marketing yourself but also establishing an identity that is separate from your blog. Having an online presence on social media is a must for modern day blogging.
