Whether you are just starting out or have been in business for years it never hurts to get more customers. If you're not growing then you're, well not growing or expanding ! and thats never a good thing for any business owner.
I'm about to tell you the best tip you can get for getting more business from your website, and you probably have already heard of it.
This secret to get more customers from your website is Blogging.
Blogging is the secret weapon that can supercharge your website with quality content that is specific to you business. If you don't know what blogging is, A blog is a discussion or informational website published on the internet consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries. This, what you're currently reading is a blog post. I write a blog about web design and digital marketing, because that is what I know. Your blog should be about your business and about topics that are relevant to your line of work.
What do you even write about in a blog?
Your first post can be an introduction post or a simple about post. Simply explaining the main idea of the blog and your goals. The main goals of our blog posts are to publicly display our web design and digital marketing knowledge as well as enable anyone that puts in the effort to successfully market themselves. At the very least empowering our readers with a better understanding of digital marketing is enough for us.
Ok and now what do I write about in my blog?
Now that you have your first post up and you might still be wondering about what to blog about. Figuring this out is so much easier to do than it sounds. Keep a piece of paper nearby or in your pocket and go to work. Throughout your day while running your business, you encounter problems that you have to solve and fix, problems that people may pay you to fix for them. These are the things you write about, how you get people to know you solve these problems for them is by putting it on the internet. The next time someone calls you and says "I'm need someone to come to my house and fix ___________. Do you do that ?" The reason they had to call and ask if you do that thing is unfortunately its not already listed on your website or maybe it is but you need more exposure. What do you do? You write an entire article around fixing that particular issue. Of course some people will use that information and go do the job themselves, don't look at that like a loss. You probably were not going to do business with that person anyways, they were looking how to do it for free. A majority of your blog readers will call you to fix their problems for them because they already know you're capable of accomplishing the task.
Now share your blog on social media
Social media isn't just a tool to share pictures with your friends, your already on there anyways, might as well share the blog post you just worked so hard on. It can get some real exposure for your blog and generate good traffic that will get real customers to call you.
Time and Spelling
Total time invested in a single blog post should be under 1 hour for a blog about your small business. There should be minimal research, you are the source of information, your blog is their to display your knowledge. Remember that and becomes super easy to get the words out on the page. You should have some fun with this, it doesn't have to be impeccably written and super formal. As long as you are right clicking all of the red underlined words on the screen and fixing them your should be golden. As long as the spelling of words is right, you shouldn't have any issues getting readers and turning them into customers. You might be wondering how to get a blog.
