We often encourage our clients to run their own blog, whether as a part of their own site, or as a separate site, and it’s always nice to see the traffic coming into those blogs, and the enquiries that leads to.

Every so often I have a mooch around some of our clients’ blog, so I thought I’d share some of them with you:

Never let it be said that my day isn’t varied :)

Part of what I love about my job is that no single day is the same as any other – because we have a good range of related services, I can be working on quite a few things throughout the day, and chatting with many different customers and associates, as well as trying to keep order in the offices both here in France and in the UK!

  • It *IS* good for business – blogging about the things you are an expert in develops credibility and helps with branding.
  • It *CAN* bring more traffic to a website – it allows you to share information on places such as Facebook and Twtter, that bring in new visitors, and gives good reasons for old visitors to return.

Having spoken to lots of people about Twitter, I realise that the first impression most people get is of the Twitter website.

If they’ve spoken to someone like me, they’ll have probably looked at my Twitter page, realised how confusing it looks and gone away pretty quickly.

“I don’t get it” they say … “It’s all messy” they say…. “It makes no sense” they say – and do you know what? They’re right!

I don’t understand how anyone manages to cope with Twitter – especially if they ‘follow’ more than a handful of people.
