Almost all of my real estate sales last year were a direct result of my blogging. Every time I post something, it ranks within hours for a relevant search term, and I get calls from folks who refer to those posts. Kermit@minneapolis real estate's last blog post..Apple Valley MN Townhome for Sale

I can see many companies tying a blogging platform to their website for various reasons like, addressing issues, increasing sells, branding and lot more to do with SEO as well. I work for a PR firm and many of our clients also ask us if our CMS supports blog/forum or not. I think blog will be a part of the top level navigation as like as "contact us page" in a year or so.

@Jason – that’s a good point. When Dell jumped it, it was met with a lot of cynicism.

@Fifty – perhaps launching a blog shouldn’t be done in isolation. Make it part of a broader strategy to address any negative brand sentiment.

Hmmmm.... I think the term blogging is overrated as it is... doesn't mean much. Example: Isn't this site basically an online version of a column. Why wouldn't a company start something like that if they were getting bad press? Fifty Studio's last blog post..Twitter Spam Block List

Agree with you that my retirement has nothing to do with the value of a blog to a company. I think all companies should have blogs–except the companies that are really hated. Those companies need to become less hated first, then move into a blog. If they jump right in it will just become a venting location for their team/customers.
