Yesterday at our monthly NAPO-St. Louis meeting, I was on a panel called Blogging for Your Organizing Business. The other panelists were blogger extraordinaire, Aby Garvey of simplify 101 and online marketing expert Ken Tucker of Changescape Web.
The format was Q&A from the audience and there were loads of great questions. Before going in, I pondered some of the points I hoped to make. So here’s my advice to organizers who blog or want to blog:
Aby and Ken added other excellent points, like be clear on why you’re blogging, know the purpose of each individual post, and make sure you’re using words in your posts that you want search engines to pay attention to.
I know that this blog has helped me grow my business. It’s allowed clients and prospective clients to get to know me, it’s helped me stay at the top of google searches, and it’s led to great opportunities, like being a member of the Rubbermaid Professional Organizer Squad . If you’re looking to blog, I say go for it. But if you make the commitment, please try to keep it.
