NOTE: This article is submitted by guest writer: Bob McDonnell.
I am a freelance writer without a website. That’s right-no website. Before you panic or click away from this post, let me explain. I love the internet, and think it is great. I use it for:
- researching for articles I write
- sharing ideas and thoughts
- finding pictures for my blog
- staying up-to-date on the news
- keeping my mind sharp by playing Scrabble
- sending family members an endless stream of cute grandkid pictures
Two months ago, I officially became a blogger. For the type of work I do, a blog seems to meet my needs. Since I am not directly selling anything, my blog contains a profile, contact info, endorsements and numerous word-related posts lets people know about me and showcase what I do.
My blog allows me to write more, get good exposure (worldwide) and network with people I might not otherwise meet.
What do you need?
Is a website a vital part of your business? (Should it be?)
Are you leveraging your time and money properly in today’s environment?
