Invasion of the Blogs: Is a Blog Right for Your Business?
Summary:
Lemmings are known for following the crowd, often to their detriment. Many people start blogs simply because it's trendy, but these quickly fizzle out. So, how do you know if blogging is right for your business?
Key Considerations for Starting a Business Blog
Content is King:
Blogs, newsletters, and feeds all share a common foundation: content. A blog can connect your business to a wide audience, delivering valuable insights in a unique style. I've been blogging since June 2000, and the evolution has been from personal musings to more focused business communication.
Successful blogs don’t just push products; they offer valuable information. Readers are more likely to trust and engage with content that provides genuine value.
Is Blogging Right for You?
Before you dive in, consider these questions:
1. Can you commit to posting at least five times a week?
2. Do you have unique insights to share?
3. Are you already engaging with other blogs or feeds?
4. Can you provide value to your audience?
5. What is the size of your current audience or subscriber list?
For a blog to thrive, it needs regular updates and a fresh perspective. Engaging with other bloggers can spark discussions and help grow your readership.
Find Your Niche:
With countless blogs out there, defining a niche is crucial. For instance, my blog, "meryl's notes," covers web design (webby), tech (geeky), and writing (wordy). However, focusing distinctly on separate topics could better serve diverse audiences.
Consider managing separate blogs for different subjects. For example, I run a personal blog about cochlear implants and deafness, catering to a specific community.
Blogging Tools Beyond the Blog:
Blogging tools aren't limited to writing online journals. They can serve as simple content management systems (CMS), enabling frequent updates to your website without complex software. Small business owners often prefer using blog software over expensive CMS options for managing their online presence.
Businesses can creatively use blogs for project communication, knowledge management, and internal updates. These tools organize and share information efficiently.
Conclusion:
Starting a blog because it's trendy might lead down the same path as the lemmings. Rather, align blogging with your organization’s goals, needs, and the desires of your target audience. With the right approach, a business blog can be a powerful tool for engagement and growth.
