Search Engine Optimization: why SEO loves blogs

As one of search engine optimization content strategies, blogs can increase the final effort which is getting more and more popular among webmasters. Why could blogs deliver organic search traffic to a website? Here are six reasons.

1. Speed up the linking building process.

People are more willing to link to blogs which can provide fresh infomation frequently than any starchy business website, and thereby speed up the linking building process.

2. Backlinks are not only pointed to the home page but every possible post.

We know that for business website, their backlinks usually point to the home page or limited subpages, which make against the other pages’ ranking. While for blogs, each post is probable to get backlinks as long as people believe it is deserved, which obviously make it easier for individual pages to rank.

3. There is no limit of outbound link types.

Outbound links can play an important role when it comes to establishing a site as a resource in the eyes of a search engine and visitors. In case of distracting people from the sales and conversion process, business website tend to restrict their outbound links. However, blogs tend to link freely to additional resources, information and sites.

4. Blog post is a great platform to place keywords.

You cannot add too many pages to a business website which may overwhelm the visitor and detract from the conversion process. This means there is a limit of your target keywords’ appearance times. Compare with business website, blogs are more free to publish posts with your target keywords naturally showing there.

5. Blogs are more fresh.

In the eyes of search engine, blogs are more fresh and dynamic than normal business website. Blogs can be updated weekly even daily, while business website is usually updated when new products or or new business news come in. Search engine spiders like fresh sites and will crawel over the fresh sites frequently and deeply, which is mor einportant to index.

6. Blogs win more trust of visitors.

People tend to find infomation they are concerned about from a credible site (blog for example) while not a profit-oriented website. Business websites tend to give infomation with reserve and most importantly they procedd from the purchase inducement purpose.

To get a better search engine optimization result, find out your target keywords,  start a blog to write about them and then use social sites like Facebook, Twitter and social bookmarking to help get backlinks to the blog. Do it now!
