Blogging - The Writer's World


The world of blogging has exploded and if your business does not have a blog you are missing out on an effective marketing tactic. With the growing impact social media has on our society, search ability is key to being successful. If you are not present on social networks your competitors are and they are the ones pulling in potential clients because people want to know more about your business before they contact you.

The best place to start is to pick a blogging platform. Some of the top favorites are:

WordPress: Free to use (but you will need to purchase a domain name for about $3—$6 a month) this site will give you a stellar website.


Blogger: Free with great web exposure because Google supports Blogger sites. Easy to use and reliable hosting.


Tumblr: Free, super easy for people to find your content through the execution of hashtags. Note: Tumblr is geared for more of the 25 and younger audience.

Active Rain: As the leading blogging platform for the real estate industry, Active Rain is a great platform to build your brand, connect with like-minded professionals, and become the local expert.


Search Engine Optimization is the foundation to getting your name out there and you do it with blogging by including keywords. Keywords are the words you are using to market you business and as your blog more, your rankings on Google and the other search engines will improve, putting you on the first page.
