The tenth reason you need to start your small business blog is the reason everyone loves, it is affordable!
A blog if affordable for many reasons. It doesn’t cost a lot of money to set up, especially when you use a professional, experienced company like Mid Columbia Webs. You are just paying to customize the blog to your specifics (appearance and functionality).
Blogging is very easy to do. If you can use Microsoft Word, you can use your blog. It does not require expensive training sessions or courses. You just some basic training to get you up and running and then you are on your way.
You do not have to hire a copywriter to do your blogging, it should sound personal not like corporate-speak. Almost anyone in your company can do it. In fact, you can take turns.
it is also easy to maintain in-house, unlike other complicated websites. Want to change the contact us page? No problem! No call to tech support needed. It is intuitive. Sure you might want to tweak it a couple times a year or get new graphics, but it is very easy to keep up from day to day.
Blogging is an affordable way to get the search engines (like Google and Bing) to visit your site often. And in Part Three we learned that search engine visits is a good thing, they “spider” your site for content about what to put in their results.
Why pay for an expensive survey or market research if your customers are already providing feedback on your blog? Blogging makes customer feedback so much more interactive and actionable.
Unlike most marketing strategies, blogging is an affordbale way to get your name out there, in the way that you want to be represented. And really, is there a price tag on that?
