Power to the people

There are many different types of blogs, differing not only in the type of content, but also in the way that content is delivered or written. So what is a blog exactly???”

A blog is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order.

The most common and traditional blogs are personal ones. Personal blogs are looked at more as an ongoing diary or commentary by an individual. 

A blog can be private, as in most cases, or it can be for business purposes. Blogs used internally can enhance the communication and culture in corporations.

Internal blogging empowers employees, increases communication, reduces e-mail, simplifies document management, and provides a solid framework for employees to stay informed, learn about new opportunities, and be involved in the company. An internal blog is an alternative to company newsletters, break room bulletin boards, project status updates, employee milestones, company events and announcements.

An internal blog can mean less work for you (no outside website systems to learn). Similar standard benefits that are part of any blog.

By having a blog built in to your website, you may also secure additional search engine benefits.

Why?

When you link to a blogger, WordPress, or other provider blog, search engines know that you're going to a different website, so the blog provider gains some benefit. When you keep your blog "in-house" on your own website, and provide a link to your blog that includes the words "Blog", "Web Blog" or "Blog News" within the link, search engine software knows that you have a blog inside of your own site, that it may contain important news and may therefore assign any additional benefits to your own website, rather than any outside party. Yet even though an "outside" blog can make a useful companion to an existing website, in that scenario, surely your blog deserves the same level of important consideration as you would give to your main website? With "outside" blogs: setting up and managing a blog significantly increases your overall website workload, so you have to be sure that the benefits gained do ensure the extra work of setting up, running and maintaining an "outside" blog are justified.

That's why,

if you're serious about building a web business, apart from the benefits of getting additional back-links to your main website from a blog, you may be better off simply investing in a web business platform that already comes with blog features built in, and then using those to add valuable content more often and more effectively, instead of adding an "outside" blog and potentially doubling your workload.
