Going social
A very well written blog article is likely to be more shared than a product page
Why you should have a blog on your e-shop ?
Writing well written and interesting content allows you to have more readers and more sharing. This ultimately results in an improvement of your natural referencing. Links to your site, whether they come from social networks, other blogs, forums, are all positive signals sent to Google.
Keeping an ecommerce blog helps to boost the number of shares on social networks and links. If you only have static pages on your ecommerce site (for example your "Who are we?" page), how do you want to share pages from your site on social networks? You cannot share the same pages indefinitely. Hence the importance of dynamic pages.
Publishing blog articles on your website allows you to show your visitors and potential customers that you are an expert in your field. To show it and prove it. In ecommerce, one of the major challenges is reinsurance. Customers are suspicious of ecommerce sites as long as they are not well-known brands. Keeping a blog helps to reassure your audience, to give them confidence, to demonstrate that you are a serious and reliable merchant.
