How can a blog help my business?
Tips 'n tricks about the web, digital trends, and online marketing
Why is a blog useful?
You are looking for potential customers, and are putting a lot of effort into marketing your business.
Your marketing techniques are focused on sales and are therefore also very direct in their questioning.
How can we approach this differently?
A more subtle way to attract potential customers to your website is to start a blog.
A blog lets you connect with your target audience in a way that offers insights and entertainment, without specifically calling to buy anything. We bet on content marketing.
The result?
So a good blog helps you connect with your target audience, and make long-term sales. People who enjoy your content will think good things about your brand and return to your website in the future.
People who are familiar with your brand and have visited your website are 2-3 times more likely to click on your name in search results, and also 2-3 times more likely to make a purchase when they visit your website.
Content marketing is a long-winded technique, but once your blog is found by your target audience, it pays huge dividends!
What should I blog about?
Of course, what you blog about depends on your specific industry and audience, as well as your personal interests and expertise.
Still, to inspire you, here are some versatile styles and topics that anyone can use to structure content.
- Lists - "5 tips to get started with painting.".
- Slideshows - "On team building in Madrid? Check out our photo series".
- How do I proceed? - "How can I provide better air quality in the office?".
- Interviews - "Our investor shares his secrets for starting a healthy investment portfolio".
Use a mix of styles to keep your blog versatile and interesting.
Super tip!
Even the best bloggers sometimes run out of ideas.
If it happens to you, try taking inspiration from what your target audience shares on social media. See what types of content work well with your competitors and what insights you can draw from that success for your own content.
Promote your blog!
If you publish a new blog article, you need to promote it, otherwise most people won't know it exists. Use social media and email marketing To push your content.
Every time you publish a new blog article, create a specific post on all your social media accounts that links to it, giving people a brief insight into the content of the new article.
You can also pay to run ads on social media platforms that push your content to your target audience. You usually get better results if you promote your most popular posts.
Email marketing is another great way to promote your blog and build readership. Collect email addresses by incorporating CTAs (calls to action) in your blog articles that encourage readers to sign up for exclusive content or special product offers.

What a pleasant collaboration with Wout and his team. Funkhaus built 2 excellent websites and is working on the digital marketing for my company. Professional, always correct, very knowledgeable and super helpful.
Kurt Habraken
Are you looking for a reliable partner to increase your online visibility, are you looking for a partner to get a website built? Wout and the colleagues at Funkhaus are a fine partner to start a project. At first, they listen carefully to what we wanted as customers. Based on this, Wout makes an offer, and after approval, they get to work. During the set-up period, there is frequent contact and consultation so that everything runs smoothly and the outcome is as the customer, us, expected. Even the after-service after delivery, which is invaluable after all, is super.
A fine partner to work with, who doesn't look down on any extra effort either. All this at a fair affordable cost makes absolutely super
