The Importance of Regular Blogging

Yes, this is another blog about blogging. While I’m sure you are aware of the value of blogging, many people find it hard to maintain a “blogging schedule.” This is the most important thing you can do when it comes to getting good results from your blog. You MUST update your blog regularly!

I know how it is (I’ve been there and I am guilty of it!) – you set up a new blog, get really excited about it, post some great entries a few times, and then the newness wears off. Other important things come up and blogging get pushed onto the back burner. Well, I am here to say that we have to keep posting, even if we feel we’re too busy to do it. You get no benefit to your website if your blog just sits there.

The best advice that I can give you on how to maintain your blog, is to make posting in it part of your schedule. We would love to see you post in it at least twice a week, but if you can do more, that’s even better (we’ve seen great results for client’s who post 3-4 times a week). Figure out a time when you have a few minutes to yourself and designate that as “blogging time.” It could be every morning after you get your cup of coffee, every other day right before lunch, or once a week on a quiet Saturday morning. Whatever works for you, but you have to be consistent. Believe me, it won’t take long to reap the benefits! Not only will the search engines love it, but your readers will too. If people see that your blog consistently has new information in it, they will continue to return to it to get the latest news!

The thought of all this writing may be overwhelming at first, but it will get easier as time goes on. If you have any questions about blogging, please don’t hesitate to contact your Account Manager!
