Would a
company benefit from blog marketing with a daily
blog?
Blogging
as a relatively new addition to internet communication, but it can still hold a
wealth of opportunities for business use. With blog marketing via regular or daily
blog updates, blogging has several distinct advantages over ‘traditional’
web pages such as allowing regular feeds
of fresh content that can easily be keyword targeted.
This
new content can be used to attract repeat visitors to your site or subscription
through RSS feeds - either way supplying that most elusive and valuable of clients:
the return visitor.
Blog
content tends on the whole to be of far
less formal in nature than general company website content that may well just
deal in facts or try to convey a company image or be purely sales driven. A
daily blog on the other hand is intended to give a more human or community feeling to
a corporate site, this in turn will assist you blog marketing goals.
A business can put across this more informal feel by having
a slightly more easygoing or ‘chat’ feel to it and not just emphasize their
latest product - talking about far more general issues in their field that
perhaps affect the public at large. For instance, non work-related events like
how the company-sponsored football team performed at Saturday’s match or even
an exclusive interview with a player.
It should also not be overlooked
that because blogging is new and developing at a fast pace that it is ‘hot’ and
on peoples minds, millions of people spend many hours each week searching for
interesting blogs. With daily blog updates, your blog marketing
page could be one of them.
A blog can respond very quickly
to events - where a web page has to be reformatted, with a blog it can
just be updated. Therefore if you work in investments and a huge company merger
is announced, you can have details on your page within minutes.
One of the great advantages
of such instant changeability is that if your clients become aware that you are
always on top of the latest developments in your field, they may well link to your
page by RSS or visit your daily blog as soon as they hear news of an event. It
means you can build confidence and loyalty.
