If you’ve been avoiding the blog bandwagon in the hopes that it’s just a phase, I hate to break it to you, but they’re here to stay. It’s not all bad news, though! Blogs became popular for a reason – they’re really (like, REEEALLY) good for your business. And the better news? You don’t even have to write them yourself. (Hence this page being titled “Blog Copywriting”) Wanna know why they’re so awesome? Here goes…
3 reasons your should consider blogging for your business:
1. SEO, baby, SEO.
Blogs are basically Google’s favourite thing when it comes to figuring out what you do, why you’re good at it and whether they should tell search engine land about you. Whether you sell bicycles, legal services or singing lessons, chances are your potential customers and clients are hitting Google to try and search for you. Only, if your competitors have been busy writing all sorts of interesting content while you’ve been sitting on your hands, you’re not giving yourself a great shot at winning them over.
2. Everyone loves an expert
Write about what you do and it’ll soon become obvious that you know what you’re talking about. This is a big deal because these days we generally choose service providers and retailers based on the information we find about them online. We only want to use the “very best” and one of the ways you could convince your potential customers that you ARE the best is by showing off your knowledge and helping to solve their problems through your blog.
3. Sharing is caring
If you use social media you probably know the challenge that comes with trying to connect with your audience – not to mention finding interesting content to share. Have you noticed how repetitive Facebook is getting? This is your opportunity to share something original and interesting, giving your audience a chance to connect with you in a more meaningful way AND share it with their friends, thus finding you more potential customers without even trying.
