more traffic than companies that don't blog at all.

• Calories get spent creating keyword rich blog content
and its impact on search engine traffic will be severely
impeded if links to those articles are not shared on
social media.

“Tweet This” button) will allow others to share what they
just read with their followers by simply clicking.
