To help your website indexing
It is known that a blog can help your corporate or personal website referring. In fact, the more a website has good quality pages, the more it can have the attention of search engines. These value especially to see new content often. You can have a look at other blogs to see how many articles they have and their post frequency.
What do you need to think about for your referring when you write an article? To start with, do not exaggerate with the use of keywords. Make sure that your articles are enjoyable to read. If your followers realize that your texts are a clumsy attempt to gain a better position on search engines, it then means that you got too far. If an article is liked, complete, of good quality, and not only a 100 words paragraph full of grammar errors, this same article should be appreciated by Google too. Moreover, opt for the use of internal links and backlinks as well. Indeed, take the time to create roads between your website’s pages or add high-quality quotes from other articles in your texts (but do not forget to mention where they come from).
To increase your authority and your credibility

In fact, if you have 20 reliable articles on the same question or theme (you must not forget that quality is more important than quantity if you want to stand out), you will start to be considered as an expert in the field. Therefore, someone who would like to know more on this topic could end up on your blog since search engines will consider you to be a pertinent source. The main goal here is to look for visibility amidst all this increasing infobesity. This is especially important if you offer a product or a service.
