Just like search engines, customers want to see that you know what you’re talking about and selling.

Your blog is another opportunity for to include a call to action. A call to action depends on your site. For example, if you want the user to buy something, you’re going to ask them to click on a link to learn more about a certain product, and then eventually ask them to make a purchase. User need to be guided through websites, and a blog is another opportunity to make these calls and provide reasoning behind it.

How We Do This:

We work with you to outline topics and develop a strategy consistent with the messaging across your entire site. We identify your target audience, who’s going to be the most likely to read or share your posts. As part of the strategy, we create a content calendar. Depending on your budget, we can write as frequently as you need, whether it’s on a retainer basis or ad hoc.

One of our skilled writers then writes the blogs, keeping in mind your business goals. These blogs are written to captivate your audience with engaging and industry-relevant subjects. But they also are written with search engines in mind, using researched keywords and key phrases throughout the content. We format the content to make it easy to read and add images to provide visual interest.

The great part about using NEXTFLY for your blogging needs is that no one will know that a third party is involved. We strive to use your messaging and voice to make the blog a seamless addition to your website.

Once the blog is published, you own the content and can share it wherever and with whomever you wish. This gives you the opportunity to share the blogs with to your connections through your social media channels, providing you with another opportunity to increase traffic to your site.

Every month, we build an analytics report to show how the blog is doing. We use multiple metrics to measure what’s working and what can be improved in future posts.
