When we are discussing our services with a potential client, it’s not uncommon for them to inquire exactly what they will get for their X number of dollars per month. One of the invaluable tools we provide as part of a monthly campaign is a performance report. These reports contain a vast amount of information including monthly and yearly recap of overall visitor traffic data, mobile-specific data, performance of branded and non-branded keywords, rankings on 3 major search engines and much more.

For many businesses, both large and small, starting a blog can be quite a large undertaking. Not only does a server and website infrastructure have to be set up, but once the blog is ready to go…. someone actually has to WRITE it. Not only that, but once a blog article has been written and published, it needs to be promoted so people actually read it.
Think it sounds easy? Well, we try to practice what we preach and as you may have noticed, we haven’t had a new blog article published in nearly 2 months.

It’s a new year, which brings with it the promise for more frequent blog posts. Our plan of posting one article per week hasn’t exactly panned out over the past few months and it’s something that needs to be rectified.

Creative writing can be an incredibly challenging mental activity (and physically, depending on how much coffee you’ve had). This doesn’t just apply to novelists or marketing copywriters either, it can affect anyone who is actively required to generate content. And yes… this includes blogs. TRUST me.
Coming up with a new idea for a blog post each week is not as easy as it may seem, which is something we have admittedly been slacking with here at Glacier Digital HQ. The last few months we have experienced some growth and have only squeezed out an average of 1 blog post per MONTH. This is one of the reasons this exact blog post has been written. If your business already has a blog or is planning on proceeding with one, updating it once a week on average is industry-wide best practice.
