16. Questions Please!

17. Do I need to have a blog on my site?
Yes, you should. We will tell you why. 80
million names are googled everyday. In such a
scenario, what are the chances that someone
searching for you or your profession reaches
your site. Not much, if you have a static site,
where nothing happens. Search engines like
Google love sites which are dynamic and
which keep getting updated regularly. A blog on
your site helps you make your site dynamic
and SEO friendly. You just have to write
keyword oriented articles revolving around
your area of expertise on your blog and the
search engines will do the rest for you.
Moreover you should restrict yourself to your
niche on your blog. Don’t be general, be
specific and you will brand yourself faster!

18. I am a photographer, designer, painter, illustrator
What about me?
In that case you have an excellent
opportunity to build your online portfolio on
your blog. Keep uploading your pictures/
designs/ illustrations on regular intervals
and you will keep getting more and more
exposure. You will not have to write
anything. But the rules of
blogging/branding remain the same.
