4 Reasons You Should Blog
In this post I am going to try and convince you why you should be blogging and how it can help you web site grow.
Below I am going to list 4 very good reasons to blog and hopefully they will help you when you want to blog.
Before we get to that though, I just wanted to explain a little about what blogging is.
Blogging is writing online and sharing knowledge, stories or even just feeling on a certain subject.
Hopefully people want to read about this subject or you can make them feel like reading what you write isn't a waste of their time.
Now to the 4 reasons on why you should be blogging.
1.
The more you write about a thing the more you not only teach about it but you learn more on the topic.
No one is really an expert at anything without practicing and researching.
So the more you write the more you are going to forcing or tricking yourself into finding out more about the topic.
2.
It will help with giving your website much coveted content.
Almost every website can always use more quality content and by blogging you are creating more content for your site.
It is easy to fall into a trap when designing a site to fill it with unrelated taglines and sale pitches.
With blogging however you are forcing yourself to create blocks of content 400 to 500 words at time.
3.
It will help your site rank higher in Google.
Google looks for sites that have authority on topics when it ranks them for search results.
Hence the more content your site has written on a topic the more likely Google will you upon it as authority on that topic.
While it may never place you above Wikipedia for general topics things that are more specialized and exact you can easily prove to Google you're the authority.
4.
Other people will read it and maybe just maybe like your site more for it.
People like to surf the web and when they do they like to go to the same places over and over.
Now if your site is always the same with nothing to new to read your visitors will stop coming back.
By blogging you and giving people something to come back for.
So to recap those 4 points, you will learn more about something that interest you or at least help you learn more about the thing your website is about.
All while making the hardest step of creating website, creating the content for it into the one of easiest and most fun parts.
Then you'll rank higher in Google because of this newly found love of writing on the topic has turned you into an authority, the "go-to" source.
And finally the people that Google sends your way and that really you're your site will like more and visit you a lot more often.
So go out there and start blogging.
