Kick Start Your Business With A Free Blog And Beat Your Competition

What would you say if I told you that you could create something in less than a minute which would get more traffic to your site daily, and boost your search engine rankings?

You might not believe me, especially if your site's suffered in the search engine rankings over the past few months. Competition online is now brutal. It's no longer enough just to have a Web site. Everyone has a site, and no matter what your industry, all popular keywords are "owned" by sites which have been online for years.

The answer to Web site woes is simple: get a blog. You can beat your competitors easily with a blog: it's the ideal way to get your site noticed. And if you choose one of the many free blogging applications, there's no cost, aside from the time it take you or a staffer to post to the blog.

Kick Start Your Business With A Blog

Every static site needs a blog, otherwise it's buried in the search engines. To get traffic without a blog costs money, and spending big on advertising may not even be cost-effective.

Here's how a blog helps your business:

* It gets more traffic to your site every day, without cost to you. Your blog will "ping" (send a message to a blog aggregator) whenever you make a new post, resulting in first a trickle of traffic, and then a flood;

* Site visitors can subscribe to your blog's feed with Really Simple Syndication (RSS), which means that you can stay in contact with them, again for free (all blogs have built-in RSS);

* Your blog can function as both a marketing and a customer relationship management tool. It's a way to turn your customers into fans, and to reveal more about your business to potential customers and get sales; and

* It's a way to build your brand and make sales... without advertising.

So there you have it: blogging is a way to promote your site, make sales, and snatch customers from your competition. Start a blog today, and watch your site traffic soar.
