Small company? Better blog!
by Ryan May, BAE Systems - Quote of the day

I believe small companies that decide to blog will find that blogs unleash an untapped market segment. Blogs create relationships with visitors by interacting with them.

Also, by blogging small companies begin to establish themselves as leaders in the industry, because they have a greater web presence. Something often miss about blogs is that they typically get better placement within Google and other search engines, because of the number of sites they link to and that link back to them.

This develops online notoriety. Depending on the quality and frequency of the posts, ABC Co. will show it has its finger on the pulse of its industry, thereby gaining credibility.

If you run a developing company, it is time to ask yourself this question, “will your company blog or not?” In my opinion if you’re a small company, you better blog!
