As I mentioned in Edit Your Turnkey Website, you really should make some changes to your website so it will stand out from others. One of the best, and easiest changes to make to your site is adding a blog to it.
Thankfully, due to the immense success & growth of wordpress, blogger and similar blogging platforms you can now install a blog within minutes to your site. This is especially true if your host gives you access to a control panel such as cPanel & you'll be able to install it within a few clicks of the mouse.
Why would you want to add a blog to your website?
Firstly, I've already stressed the need to make your site unique from others on the web. Adding a blog is the first step of this transformation.
Secondly, search engines love content. It doesn't matter what new algorithms or formulas the search engines develop, unique content & relevancy will always be the essential building blocks to getting your site indexed highly.
So, if you are running an online casino your blog could have articles, news items and even your thoughts on online gambling. These would both be RELEVANT to your website & equally important, UNIQUE to your site.
Thirdly if you manage to maintain a blog, based on online gambling you will quickly developed a reputation for yourself as an expert in this area. This will give you more credibility when you refer visitors back to your own site to earn commission. People buy off those who they think they know or trust so it's essential to build a relationship with your visitors via your blog.
Finally, there is one last reason why adding a blog to your website should be one of the first changes you make.
With the growth of blogging over the recent years there has been an equal surge in the number of blog directories. These are like search engines for blogs, listing thousands of blogs each in there area of expertise.
These blogging directories are an ideal way to get links back to your website fast.
