Have you ever read someone saying start a blog but dont quite get it? I used to read people saying all the time ” start a blog ” but I did not understand why.

Well here is a few (10) reasons why to start blogging that I have learned since I have started blogging

Instead of listing products on a normal site, why not blog about them. The more you blog about them the more you stand the chance of being found on search engines for that specific product. While this is not that easy with things like computers its way easy if you have a small product you are trying to sell that is not as famous as computers.

Just think about it. What would get more traffic? 100 products listed on a site or 1000 blog posts, 10 posts about each product linking to each other? Obviously the blog would get more visitors.
