One may have all sorts of questions when including<br />

a blog in a website. For instance, one may wonder<br />

the ROI, the cost of maintenance, content to post,<br />

how to add the blog to a website, hiring freelancers<br />

and developers and automation features of a blog.<br />

These are important considerations, but they<br />

should not take up much of your time.<br />

The idea of making a blog does not involve a lot of technicalities at the initial stage. The purpose of any blog is to<br />

create a good and ef cient way to communicate with your clients. The blog is a vehicle to make this communication<br />

happen, not the technicality of putting up a good-looking website.<br />

Include promotions<br />

You can place promotions on a blog. For instance, let's say its women's day, and you have an online fashion site. On<br />

the blog, you can include an offer such as a freebie. For instance, you can say "Bring your lady with you, and you will<br />

get a free crop top". There are many more methods which you can use to communicate to your clients on the<br />

promotion. For example:<br />

1. Publish it in a blog post. You can use a blog post to explain different aspects of your story. This post will get<br />

published in a permalink.<br />

2. Share the URL on social media. Use social media <strong>for</strong> local channels to publish your post. You can use<br />

targeted ads which point to your city. Social media websites such as LinkedIn and Twitter can be a good place<br />

to start to trigger sharing.<br />

3. Send an email. Remind your subscribers about the promotion. Remember to provide the link to the post as<br />

well as a summary of its content.<br />

4. Set up a Google AdWords campaign. You can use keywords which are targeting a particular thing in your<br />

locality. Optimize the content and the traf c will<br />
