Businesses that blog report getting 67% more leads than those that don’t. Yet some blogs fail to get the desired results. For a limited time, Media Relations Agency is offering a complimentary 5-point blog audit. We may find new ways for you to improve your blog’s ability to increase web traffic and brand awareness, and enhance customer experience.
What are your blogging goals?
Blogging is one of the most common content marketing strategies for businesses. Companies that blog successfully describe numerous benefits, including:
- Higher ROI: Blogs keep people on websites longer, which can often equate to higher sales. Statistics show that businesses that include blogs as part of their marketing strategy see 13 times the ROI than businesses that don’t. Source: Semrush
- More sales leads: If your site visits are staying constant and not increasing, you may only be reaching people already familiar with your product/business. That’s preaching to the choir!

- Blogs shorten the sales cycle. Blogs increase brand awareness and educate buyers.
- Better customer relationships. As many as 60% of consumers feel more positive about a company after reading custom content on its site. Source: Content Plus
- Scalability. Businesses of every size can benefit from blogging.
Why some blogs fail
Blogging is a commitment. It takes time to build ROI from blogging. I’ve seen it described as compounding, much like compounding interest can increase your retirement savings balance.
Marketing software giant HubSpot explains the top reasons why companies may not get the full value from blogging. “Bloggers fail because they don’t realize that blogging is a business that requires effort, time and attention. Some bloggers fail because they don’t research their audience, they don’t tailor their content accordingly, they blog inconsistently, they don’t use SEO best practices, or they don’t promote their content.”
