Do you want a self-hosted Wordpress
blog but don't want to set it up?

We'll Do It For You!

And Teach You How to Update

Why Having a Blog is Important
With over 80 percent of people finding what they need online, you must get found. A blog offers the following benefits.

Promote what you know. A business blog gives you a platform to share your expertise and establish yourself as an expert in the marketplace.

Describe and build your brand. Your brand represents what people know about you or think of when they hear of you. Focusing your blog on your expertise will help promote your brand.

Boost search engine rankings. As you continue to offer tips, insight, and advice to people who need what you have, you’ll give the search engines what they crave – fresh, quality content.

Reach the masses with less effort and money. Search engines, links from other sites, integration with social media tools, and Google Alerts are just a few of the ways a blog can help you reach people you never would have otherwise. You could start to attract potential customers, clients, journalists, and industry giants seeking fresh ideas.

With a self-hosted Wordpress blog, you will:

• Have complete control over design, functionality, and virability.

• Be able to add any number of the thousands of free plugins that make your blog easy to share and promote, thus boosting your search engine rankings.

• Host your own content and easily move it from one host to another if you ever need to.

• Easily create full backups of all files.

• Be able to monetize it by selling your own products.

• Upload as much content as your hosting package will allow.

"I have a newsletter that I email regularly.
Why do I need a blog?"

It's a good idea to collect email addresses and send your subscribers valuable information regularly. But if that's all you're doing, how will Google and other search engines know? The only people seeing your newsletter are your subscribers. When you add your expertise to a blog, it'll get picked up by the search engines and exposed to the world! So do both.
