Blogs, Blogging & Bloggers!!!!!!
Friday, November 2, 2007 - By: Joeann Fossland
It is all the buzz...but is it just a fad? Why would you want one more thing to do?????The competitive nature of our business requires that we find every competitive advantage to justify our value to consumers. Blogs are a great way to differentiate yourself.
Here are a few reasons you should consider this:
1. You'll enhance your branding by giving people a more dynamic way to find out about you and your services.
2. You'll increase your search engine positioning for your website.
3. You'll give people a reason and a way to interact with you.
4. You'll become known as an expert when you use your blog for a specified purpose or to give information to a defined niche.
5. You'll learn a lot from the other bloggers who are generously sharing ideas.
6. You'll become part of a bigger community of online people who are demonstrating what Web 2.0 is all about.
If you are ready to jump in, here are some resources:
A great place to start is at http://www.RealTown.com where you can set up a free blog.
Or set one up at the ActiveRain community where you get points for posts and can learn from your peers.
If you need some help in putting it altogether, contact Peg Silloway at http://www.IBlog4You.com or Phone: 301-335-9368 Email:
Whatever you do, don't ignore this...consumers are starting online and you need to be there!
