Encouraging clients to write often…or using a blogging service?

I’ve been working with the WordPress platform for a little while now, and I’ve been a regular blogger since January (though I had been promoting blogging for years earlier, and had my first blog in 2000 [yes, I'm a bit insecure about my blogging creds]). I’ve created many sites with blogging capabilities, some of them based on Blogger.com integration, and others WordPress.
I’ve explained the benefits of blogging many times to my clients, made nagging phone calls reminding them to blog — all to little avail. I even wrote an article about the importance of blogging to help explain myself. But still, the blogs remain silent.

Is Blogging Really Worth the Time?
![One reason to blog is traffic! [Image of traffic light]](http://www.seodenver.com//home/katzwebd/seodenver.com/wp-content/uploads/HLIC/b474026953c38cf6eb9af33980de820d.jpg)
Today, a business associate asked me “I know about blogging, and it seems like a waste of time. Why is blogging worth the time?” I was able to reply with some very convincing arguments — and in a way, I reminded myself about the value of blogging.
- Blogging establishes you as an expert in your field
- Search engine traffic dramatically increases
- Blogging is basically free marketing for your business: the only cost is your time.
- Blogging forces you to write about your life and your business

Abusing Google Trends – Unethical blogging

I stumbled upon the website BlogFlux today and found myself reading a blog titled Jehzlau Concepts. I found one of the articles very interesting about how to increase rank on your blog even if you don’t post often. You should check out the article.
The article says that a great way to get traffic is by riding many small, short waves of web popularity by using the cool tool, Google Trends, that shows you what people are searching for NOW. Not 10 minutes ago, but what is hot right now. For instance, today Google Trends shows that J-Lo had twins, a teacher sent illicit pics to students, the Philadelphia airport has delays, and there’s a Star Trek collection tour.
