Plus have you noticed Fortune 500 Companies using blogs? There's a reason for it. Anyway let's look at some of the benefits of blogging for the serious business minded person:

1. Blogs are an easy way to stay in touch with other people and let them know what's new. Even a new mother or father can benefit from the ease of reaching multiple people with one posting. Take that benefit and look at exponential values that could be achieved if used on a larger scale and you will see how you can tap into this benefit to reach a multitude of people. You can save time and money using blogging as a method of communication.

2. Blogs give you a place to show off your ability and expertise in your field. You have a lot to offer whether you believe it or not. You can reach a much larger audience this way than through other traditional methods. You can gain a reputation as an expert in your arena by blogging and showing how well you manage your own business and displaying your knowledge.

3. Blogging is an easy way to post fresh content. Not only does this lend legitimacy and interest to your website and pull in more visitors, but it will attract the search engines. Fresh content equates to more web crawling from the search engine spiders.

4. This is one of the main points about blogging! Search engine marketing relies on many synchronized methods working together. One of the cheapest and easiest ways to create a web presence is to blog. You can develop top search engine rankings based on the popularity of your blog. Catch people's attention with great content and links will aid you in your trip to the top of the search engine rankings.

5. A blog with RSS feeds will increase your visibility with blog and RSS search engines. You can build link popularity through RSS feeds when you are cited by other blogs or websites. Your links within your blog will also send you traffic if your content is of interest.

6. The cost/benefits are huge with blogging. With easy to use and cheap blogging tools, you can get started without a huge investment of time and money.

SEO in a blog is definitely the way to go. Blogs not only get your words out there, but allow for comments and RSS. You can optimize your blog to get attention with relevant keywords.

Just like any other marketing method, it can be indexed and therefore translate to rankings with the search engines. Thanks to the structure of blog softwares, it is relatively easy for search engine crawlers to detect and categorize the content, resulting in a better shot at high rankings.

You can use blog software to easily add active and attractive elements to your website to keep it fresh and inviting. The software can help you to post current events and news in your field, newsletters, updated FAQ's, updated media, interesting correspondence, and relevant data.

Instead of just relying on a static web site that deters people from frequent visits, you can encourage regular visitors with constantly updated content, comment posting, cutting edge news, and a sense that your site is on the cutting edge of your field or industry. This translates to a site that attracts the search engines and produces high rankings.
