You do Not have a Blog

If you run a business then you may find that you just don’t have the time to format, archive and post your content. Anything you do write needs to be edited and published to the appropriate channels too. If you want to put an end to this, then there are things that you can do, such as hiring someone to do it for you. Either way, you have to remember that a blog is one of the fastest and also one of the cheapest ways for you to get your content out there. It is also a fantastic way for you to boost your site and SEO. If you need help with things like this then make sure that you hire an SEO company.

You Don’t Have a Strategy

Your content may be in your blog, but are you creating it with some kind of plan or defined approach? Posting is one thing, but you have to make sure that you are posting with purpose too. You need to make sure that your content reflects your target audience as well as your buyer persona. It also needs to be accessible, and it needs to be compelling. If you can ensure that this is the case, then you should have no problem in making sure that everything works in your favor.

You’re Not SEO Focused

Did you know that three out of four people do not go past the first page of the search result page? Without a good SEO strategy, you may find that you don’t get anywhere either. You can’t keyword stuff either. The algorithm that Google uses is far too advanced for you to be able to trick it by using strategies such as this.

Your Social Media Strategy Isn’t Great

You may think that your business isn’t all about tweeting and liking and this may be true. That being said, you do have to make sure that you have a good strategy in place either way. If you don’t then you may find that your brand voice is not as consistent as it needs to be and that you end up struggling. You may also lose the respect of your customers because you are not coming across as professional as you want to be.

So, if your website is failing or if you just don’t seem to be converting as much as you think you could be, this guide should help you to find the reason why, so you can make the appropriate changes.
