Does Social Blogging work? . . . You Bet it does!!

 

The question I get from a lot of people I speak to about social networking and their business is “Does this stuff really work?”  The answer is simply yes.  Here are a few simple things to consider.  People go to the web today for information.  The numbers are staggering, and they get bigger everyday.  All of the traditional forms of one way communication with your customer both potential and current are changing.  Most are on there way out.  Today it’s about building networks of loyal followers.  People that look to you for solutions to their problems.  

I don’t want to lecture on this forever.  I want to show you just one example that happened to me when I made a simple blog post. 

 

Recently I decided to sponsor a local community swim team.  The Cottonwood Pirates.  I thought it would be a good idea to capitalized on this so I posted a press release to that effect.  Check out the results of a Google search for cottonwood pirates.

Yep.  Pineapple PC made it to #2 in the search.  Total cost for this $0.00  I can’t say it enough.  Google loves the blog they see it as more organic then other paid content.

Starting a blog is simple, maximizing the effect take a bit of work.  Content is king.

 

Talk to you soon.
