Blogging for Business: Does It Still Work?

Every now and then the question arises “is blogging for business dead or does it still work”? Many people assume that blogging isn't as important anymore with the introduction of social media and video platforms. Blogging isn't only alive and well, it's one of the most reliable ways to improve your online visibility. It has evolved over the years into a long-term strategy in modern SEO.

The Statistics

Blogging for business provides some very clear statistics, showing that businesses that blog, generate close to seventy percent more leads than businesses that do not blog. At the same time, it costs just over sixty percent less than paid advertising, providing long-term growth and returns over time. 

In addition to this, a well-written blog can keep attracting visitors for months, years, or more, but a Facebook post only lasts on average five hours, and a tweet may last as little as eighteen minutes.

Digital marketing trends are constantly evolving, yet blogging continues to deliver results.

Building Trust

Blogging is very powerful in building trust with your audience and search engines. When someone finds your blog when looking for answers to their query, you are helping them. This helps to drive a visitor to convert, turning them into loyal customers. 

Did you know that more than eighty percent of consumers trust advice they found in blog posts? At the same time, a B2B buyer will consume up to five pieces of content before they make contact with a supplier. Your business blog does the heavy lifting, working for you twenty four hours a day. When you blog consistently, you become a trusted authority in your industry. 

Multi-Channel Marketing

Every blog you create can be turned into content for your wider marketing strategy. Blogs can be re-purposed for numerous channels, taking advantage of the hard work you have already completed. This helps you reach your entire audience, as people all consume content differently. While some prefer reading, others prefer watching, or listening. When you turn your blog content into multiple formats, you reach your audience aligning with their preferences.

Conclusion

Blogging was originally an online journal, but it has become a reliable driver of website traffic and brand credibility. It is a cost effective and reliable growth strategy, providing good returns, building trust, while fuelling your wider SEO efforts. Are you using blogs to your advantage? If not, contact Genie Crawl now and let us show you how.
