Readers expect fresh content every time they visit the blog page. The more frequent you update your blog, the more traffic you get into your website. Maintain a regular schedule for your blog to double your leads.

Write contents which will benefit the reader. Never make a direct sales pitch in your blog page, it will debase your blog. You should be able to convey your sales message to your readers without a candid sales pitch.
Stack your readers with facts they won’t find in another place. The association that you build with your readers will help you to turn them to potential leads.
