Flower Discoveries: To blog or not to blog? That is the question.

We’ve been chatting about SEO around here for a while now. Why? SEO stands for “search engine optimization.” Essentially, it is how your business’s website is found. There are simple things that you can do on your own to improve your SEO. (You can find a simple guide on local SEO at this site). Consistent blogging can be one of those!

But blogging also takes up a lot of time (if you know, you know). If your website is not optimized for your local market in SEO, you may have a larger impact by taking time you would’ve been blogging to focus on implementing a few simple SEO strategies.

Should the time you spend blogging go to local SEO efforts instead? Tune in to find out!
