BLOGGING FOR SMALL BUSINESS SUCCESS
MOST SMALL BUSINESSES CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY SOMEONE TO SET UP A WEBSITE
This is a fact of small business in the early stages. Unless you are going to have an internet business, then a website will be one of the last projects you will probably tackle.
BUT having a website is almost essential to help your business along. So what can you do about it?
SET UP A WORDPRESS BLOG
Because so many people face the same problem, finding money to set up a website or having the expertise to do it themselves, thousands of small business owners are using the absolute power of the blog to promote their business and their products.
This is such a fantastic way to do it. It means that you can build up some communication with possible clients, interact with fellow business people and develop many other great ways to use a blog.
At Wordpress you can set up a blog for nothing and not pay any hosting fees either. With the free blog at Wordpress it just means that from the site you cannot actually sell a product or put advertising on the site, but you can link to other sites and you can talk about your products.
Blogging is about helping your clients with helpful information. Most people wont look at a blog if it is all about yourself. So when you set up a blog pick topics that you can talk about and give tips to your clients. That way they will learn to trust you and will be looking to buy from you as well.
Blogs don't need to be long, and in fact they are better to be more frequent small ones that long wordy ones. People searching the internet like to be there, have a quick read and be gone again. Therefore your blogs need to be short, interesting and engaging.
Try setting a blog up on Wordpress, it really is not too difficult.
Have fun.

I initially was creating blogs with just adsense and some plr articles but that doesn’t seem to make much money. I’d be interested in some article writing – do you outsource?

You are not wrong about backlinks, they are so important to building your web presence. Blogging and social marketing are the leaders in free marketing, but blogging has to be done right to get the best SEO benefits. Building a list is important through blogging also and is often what people think blogging is all about, but it is not just about that.
