Why do so many website have blogs now? Does it help search engine placement?

Not specially

Why blog on commercial websites? It's pitifully boring. Here's what most blogs sound like:

"Blah blah blah (Insert smiley face) blah blah blah (insert sad face) blah blah blah"

Many people want to promote their product or service. Blogging can convey news or information.

One advantage of using a blog in SEO is that blogs could be used for link exchange transactions and link promotion. It helps SEO to give the prospect link exchange partner a choice for a 3-way link exchange rather than just a reciprocal link exchange.


Since a blog contains articles which are related to the targeted keywords or related to the client’s site services and products, Blogging is a good way to drive traffic to your site. It is used for link exchange and link promotion which helps to find some potential three-way link exchange partner.
