Small business? Start blogging!

Small business? Start blogging!

Small business owners wake up: if you want more traffic be sure to start blogging, now! A recent study by Hubspot shows that small businesses can gain a lot from starting their own blog.

As a small business owner myself I can off course only agree with the results. Blogging does give a small business the opportunity to get more attention and get a higher ranking in search engines. The research underscribes what many small business owners already knew.

Hubspot looked at data from 1,531 HubSpot customers, most of which are small business owners. A little over 50% of them blogged.

The numbers show that business blogging are getting 55% more visitors, no less than 97% more inbound links and 434% (!) more indexed pages. Google loves the business blogs.
