Add a Blog to Your Website for that 100% Natural SEO
This blog entry was posted on July 2, 2010.
How can adding a blog to your site improve your entire website’s search engine rankings? Blogging is one of the best ways to attract links and targeted traffic on a website. It does this in three ways.
- A blog regularly adds fresh keyword rich content to your website. Each blog posting adds another page to your website.Larger websites generally do better with the search engines.
- Blogs written with interesting original insights and opinions attract links from other blogs which build up the link popularity of the entire website.
- On new blog postings are broadcast via RSS automatically so new visitors will begin arriving within minutes of a new posting.
Keywords: Before you start blogging, select a topic related to your website that your best customers will find interesting. Blogs are about reaching your target audience with an interesting and useful message. It could be opinions on the latest industry trends or how to advice. Prepare a list of keywords from your topic that you can use in your posting titles, links and in your content.
Writing: Blogging is not about selling, it is about educating and engaging readers with thought provoking writings. You are branding yourself as the authority and expert in your market niche. Do it right and people will return over and over to hear what you have to say.
Attract Links: If what you write about is interesting and original, you will develop a readership who will return over and over to read what you have to say (stickiness). Others will comment about your postings on their blogs and they will naturally link to your posting as a reference to support what they are writing about. These links help not only your blog, but your entire website with its link popularity, improving your website rankings.
Really Simple Syndication (RSS): When you publish a new blog posting, RSS “pings” out the blog title, the first 25 words of your post and the URL location of your blog post to the search engines. These are indexed and can appear in the organic results within minutes of publishing a new posting.

Thanks for the tips on the benefits of blogs.
Content is only one element as with RSS setup.
Publicity online is key also – shout about your offerings anywhere you can – social media, google feedburner, articles submissions online. Hope this helps!

Dave,
I completely agree that your blogging starts with content and is fueled with promotion(RSS, social media, etc.)
Add to that a keyword and blogging plan and you have a high performance SEO tool.
