Blogging: A Different Kind of Business Communication (Part 1 of 3)

Somewhere between the detail of a full book and the brevity of a 140 character tweet, is the blog.

Blogs are different than just about all of the other writing you've done (or outsourced) for your company, and they carry different expectations than your standard web content. One of the unique qualities of a blog is that companies can disseminate news and information in a tone that’s different from the rest of the copy on their site.

In fact, businesses can even have a little fun with their blogs. If you think of your site's main content as similar to the communication you’d have with a prospective customer in a sales meeting, think of your blog more like a conversation you’d have with that person over lunch.

The important thing, though, is that blogging is first and foremost about getting additional content out there for your visitors, and making your site more useful to them.
