Blogging is the thing from which people can learn and let learn others too

I agree with @rtucker + my 2 cents:

We run a corporate blog on WP and it works very well in terms of traffic generation and sales generation too though we try to minimize our sales pitch to cater to users familiar with the product AND also to those who stop by to read posts related to our industry. we do not run any ads - the blog is purely for customer interaction and information sharing, and for traffic as I said earlier.

I think that in terms of SEO, it is obviously better to have a corporate blog right on your site but it is very very expensive to create a solution analogous to WP and pay someone regularly for managing things for you. So there is SEO benefit but I don't think it offsets IT/labor costs of developing a blog on-site.

Also, as others mention on here, a blog should be informative and frequently updated. If you don't have the time, money and human resources to keep an informative corporate blog, do guest blogging, promote your posts in social media etc etc, then it's probably better not to start one at all..

One thing you have to realize is that a blog is more than just a journal, it is a communication tool between your company and the outside world. There are many different ways you can really optimize the use of your blog posts to drive in new traffic and create much needed business for yourself.

So why does it HAVE to be "blog" website that is the communication line??

What is the problem with "communicating" with customer DIRECTLY on the company website???

Blog is very important in business because it is the way that you can post updates with regards on the announcement and promos of the business.

Read the post above your post???

Weblogs might help companies upon several amounts. Several which come to thoughts will be they provide more info that individuals might be seeking. Additionally they may additional clarify particular stuff that the businesses performing. Regardless of whether this particular end up being growing, reducing expenses, as well as advertising services. General, I believe each and every company must have some form of weblog, because it is yet another excellent device with regard to advertising.

Blogs are different. They evolve with every posting, each one tied to a moment. So if a company can track millions of blogs simultaneously, it gets a heat map of what a growing part of the world is thinking about, minute by minute.

Blogs can increase traffic to your business site.

Provides others to know about your stuff online, more interested people will contact you then.

They do as well, but same thing with blogging.

Weblogs are different. They change with every publishing, each one linked with a second. So if a company can monitor an incredible number of blogs at the same time, it gets a heat map of what a increasing world is thinking about, instant by instant.

now a days blog is working like a website. All the feature like website are in the blog too. You can use it like your business page. Its helping you to advertise your business as well as your website.

The blog need to improve the social influence of a trademark

Ok, what is it that makes you fail to understand that a "website" is simply a location accessible by the http or https protocols that consists of one or more HTML documents.
SO whether you call your website a blog, a discussion board (forum) or anything else, it is STILL a website.

What you call a "blog" is simply a collection of documents created by, stored in and served out from a content management system.

blog can help for many businesses, if you haven't your business website, using blog we can make business profile on internet.
