Are You Blogging Yet? Reasons Avon Representatives Should Be Blogging for Their Business

The best thing we can do when we want to attract customers to our Avon Representative website is to start blogging. Blogging gives people a sense of familiarity with you and your products, and enables you to promote your business. When blogging you need to give readers motivation to do something better, and start a conversations around your products.


Blogs (or weblog) have been around for 20 years. A blog is where a blogger posts content and expects to start a 2-way conversation. Through consistent and informative blogging you can be seen as an expert in your field and influence people, leading them to your Avon website.


According to the experts blogging drives 55% more visitors to your Avon Representative website, 97% new inbound links, and 434% new indexed pages of content.

In addition, Avon can not control its image and the messages it sends out to the public, however we as Representative can contribute to that conversation and maybe influence it.


What does this mean?


One of the ways to fast popularity is by blogging. By blogging you can drive more people to your Avon Representative website and therefore be in a situation to make more sales. Blogs let people get to know your Avon business on a less formal basis. Through a blog you can create information about Avon products and a forum of conversation about your business. In the end, your blog should create a sense of community around you and your business.

Also, blogging allows you to reach a wider audience, since 77% of internet users read blogs. Regularly posting will give your company new innovations, ideas, and news.


Why is blogging effective? Because it allows you to be first in the list when someone searches for an Avon Representative. Search engines, such as google or yahoo, love fresh, new content. Old content is considered inaccurate and not relevant. Posting everyday is considered more relevant and will be pulled first.

You should be asking yourself not "Why should I blog?", but rather, "Why shouldn't I blog".

If you love to search the web, read, write, and have a desire to network you need to be blogging. And you need to like publicising your thoughts, opinions, and ideas. You do not need to go to school to blog, everything you need to know is on the internet. Blogs require a long-term effort, in order to build up content and it will take several months to see any solid results. You must make a large commitment in time and effort. Fit your blog into your everyday efforts and stick to it.


You can pay for a site to blog, but why, there are over 40 free sites including this one, Blogger, and Wordpress.
