However, it pays off in several ways. In addition to the SEO, it helps me show customers my expertise.

Blogging may not be right for every business but exposure is exposure, and that does tend to be beneficial for most businesses. At this point, blogging has become so cheap and effective that it's a tactic that shouldn't be ignored. Good post.. I agree, Matt.

Blogging may not be the right thing for every small biz -- gotta focus on the tactics and strategies that work best. But nothing wrong with some trial and error to reach that point.

However, a few friends have suggested it takes a while. One thing for sure, SEO takes a well rounded approach. Blogging is just part of the puzzle, it takes time and patience. Something most business owners don't have, at least time that is. The jury is still out for us with blogging. However, a few friends have suggested it takes a while.

In fact I would go so far as to say that most if not all localized small businesses(offline conversion types) would be better off with a blog site instead of the traditional 5 page static site that hasn't been updated for years. The SEO value alone makes this a great idea. But when you add the ease of content management that blogging software brings with it is an absolute no brainer. You can bet that every SMB client I work with hears about the value of a Business Blog/Site Nice post Matt,
