Interesting blog statistics presented by demandmetric.com and Hubspot.com
With those blog statistics in mind, here are some of the more specific ways blogs benefit your small business and website.
The strategic use of targeted keywords and relevant content in blog articles improves your opportunity to show up on the first page of search results. Since a blog allows you to dedicate an entire page to one topic, you can focus on the SEO elements that search engines consider for high-quality content.
The bounce rate impacts your SEO score for ranking. So if people come to your site, but leave quickly, it could be an indicator that your website is not as relevant to the keyword or key-terms it showed up for, and therefore it will push your web pages further down on the search results. The more engaging your content is, the longer a person will stay on your web page. When you use internal links to reference other relevant content on your website, it encourages visitors to explore other pages on your website as well.
Blogs give you a space to answer questions, address concerns, and provide an educational experience, which ultimately builds credibility for your brand and business. By becoming a reliable source of information, you not only build trust with your audience, but you also create a reputation for your website on search engines.
Organic means you didn’t have to use a paid ad to get people to visit your website. The goal of any website is to increase lead generation. What better way to do that than with a blog? When people search the internet, they are looking for answers and resources. If your web page has just that, you will inevitably generate an interest, which hopefully results in a new lead. That, of course, requires a strong call-to-action. Having a bunch of great content means nothing if the person doesn’t know what to do with it. A call-to-action provides direction for what needs to happen next to meet to help the visitor meet their goals, whatever that may be.
Adding new content, such as blogs, to your website gives search engines a reason to crawl your website content more often than the ones that don’t have any changes. Since search engines are always looking for the best new content, writing blogs is the easiest way to add fresh content to your website every month.
