Why Should I Create a Business Blog???

Because it’s Good Business! Blogging is the most explosive outbreak in the information world since the Internet itself and Business blogs are sweeping the business community. Blogs are an excellent method to share a company's expertise, build additional web traffic, and connect with potential customers.

There are a number of internet service providers that offer blog applications that can be linked to your web site. www.Blogger.com and www.WordPress.com are two that offer free blog applications. Start your blog by educating visitors on what your business offers and linking to those products where customers can purchase them. Links are an important component in search engine optimization. Include them where they make sense.

Start dialogs on topics that matter to your target market and be sure to keep up. Don’t ignore your readers.

One of the key factors to remember is that the content on your blog should be such that anyone could read it and not be shocked or offended. The internet is vast and links can be established showing your content on countless other web sites. With that note of caution spend some time thinking about your content and no silly pictures or comments that might be misinterpreted.
