Blogging has taken off like wildfire in the digital space. There is hardly a website that exists online without a blog, and if they don’t have one it is only a matter of time before they realize what they are missing out on. Blogging brings traffic, supports SEO and social media and let’s users who land on your site know that you are alive, and an actual business is behind that code, content and design.

But as blogging has progressed, there has been a common complaint. That being, “I am getting all this traffic to my blog, but no one is buying my product!” As someone who is very ROI and conversion focused I must say that I hear this complaint loud and clear. We will make one quick point and then talk a little about blog/social media conversion optimization. Don’t forget that blogging improves your rankings for larger keywords if it is done correctly and it pulls in referral site traffic, so you do convert and see ROI that way. OK, now that we have gotten that out of the way lets discuss what I believe is an initiative of the future for online business, blog conversion optimization.
