Author: It is becoming more common but the huge question I get when speaking to people is “Why use a blog?”.
Off the top of my head I can think of 5 major reasons.
A blog is:
• Easy to update
• Easy to get started
• Liked by the search engines
• Creating feeds automatically
• Allows people to interact with you
Before I begin let me take just a minute to define the term blog. The following is quoted from Dr. Mani one of the early marketers to embrace blogs.
“A blog is short for “web log” a sort of online individualized diary where “anyone” can reveal his/her innermost thoughts, feelings, desires, dreams, ambitions, fears, hopes … you get the meaning.
Yes, it’s a website. With one small difference. It lists posts ordered by date in a individualized journal format, and is easier to create than a website – just involves typing into a form and actuation the PUBLISH button”
The assist of near button publishing of most blog platforms make them one of the easiest web sites to update. On most platforms you don’t need to know HTML though it does help. If you can create a word document you can update a blog.
