With millions of blogs clamoring for attention, blogging is indeed a crowded arena, and your blog needs to offer value if you are to stand out in the crowd.
Guest blogging can help in building brand awareness, authority, and attract franchise leads. The idea is to be a guest with a popular blog other than yours, and post content related to your services.
Here’s how guest blogging works in attracting franchise leads.
01. Increased Website Traffic
Whenever you are writing a guest post, the publisher usually allows you to include a direct link to your franchise website.
The backlinks from such websites are usually considered to be of high-quality and effective in driving traffic.
02. Established Audience
Most of the publishers of guest posts have already established their audience. Just make sure you write for popular blogs that are relevant to your franchise industry.
03. Improved Franchise Branding
In the guest post, it is important to talk about your brand – what is your brand, how does it help your customers, its offerings, and more.
This creates the right image of your brand and makes your business stand out, which in turn results in improved franchise leads.
04. Improved SEO Ranking & Authority
The backlinks from authoritative websites and blogs to your franchise website is one of the factors that Google considers for high SEO ranking.
If your franchise website receives backlinks from authoritative websites, then your website’s organic ranking will increase, and in turn, your web traffic, authority, and leads will also go up.
05. Social Media Links
At the end of the blog post within the author’s bio, many of the blogs allow guest writers to include social media links. A social media link makes it easier for your followers to connect with you.
This can be a surprisingly good way of building your social network, to engage with your prospects socially.
06. Connect with Your Prospects
In guest blogging, you are writing for an authoritative website which is likely to be followed by industry experts. With the right positioning, you have a reasonable chance of connecting with them for endorsements. This is another way of building connections with the industry experts.
