Why should you link to your blog?
Posted by Abdz - 15/07/09When you have a blog set up it will be for different reasons. Many people have a blog as a way of making themselves heard and kind of like a hobby. Other people will use a blog for promotional means and as a way of getting people to look at their website which may sell products and services. If you are one of these people that you will want to know all the tips and tricks of posting blogs so that you get more traffic to your website as well as to your blog. One of the ways you can do this is by linking to your blog.
Improve your Page Ranking
Now, while you obviously want to link from your blog to your website, doing the opposite is just as important. This creates a link exchange and by showing the inter-leading between the two, Google, Yahoo! and other search engines will recognize that you have an active and properly functioning website. Getting high ranking is important for any website and it can be easier to get a blog to rank highly because you will keep posting blog content with all the relevant keywords that you need on your website. On a website you cannot have too many keywords as this will be considered spam, and many SEO experts claim that you should only use one main keyword per page. If you only have a few pages, this can be very hard. Blogging works so much better because you can create as many pages as you want and blog about every single product and service that your website offers. You can also create plenty of links back to your website.
Improve Customer Service
Linking to your blog from your website will work to complete the circle. It will also help you to increase traffic and get more readerships by way of people that find your website. They might be interested in your products, but might be wondering about a few things, or perhaps they are not sure which product is right for them. Your blog can help will all these things and will make your potential customers loyal and regular ones. They will know that they can always trust you to give the correct information and provide them with interesting and informative blogs about various products and services. They can be informed about things they are interested in and will always come to you before going to any other company if they enjoy reading your blogs.
With these and many other reasons for linking to your blog, you will see how much you can gain from this process. Linking does not take long and is not at all complicated. You will set up a link within the page content of your website, or you can create a specific links page that people can go to. These are both great ways of linking as long as they appear easily on the home page or with a clear page designated for links and partners.
