Why

The ultimate goal of a blog for business is to develop, nurture, and convert leads into sales. This is done by offering useful tips and resources regarding your industry’s services while simultaneously optimizing for keywords. By doing so, you attract and build trust with your audience, and when they are ready to purchase, the likelihood that they choose your company is much higher. My company, Roominate Marketing, started a blog six months ago. By providing useful content to small business owners, we’ve had over 5,000 page views and converted a number of readers into customers.

                More specifically, blogging: 

Is important because search engines like Google value websites with fresh content (blog posts)
Adds pages to your website, which is also important to search engines
Enables your company to become more searchable by relevant keywords; SEO benefits
Demonstrates your industry expertise to a broad audience; makes you a thought-leader
Provides a non-intrusive forum to reach leads on a consistent basis
Increases the ability of your website to have pages shared through social media
Helps you stay on the cutting edge of your industry
