One of the best ways to generate online leads is via blogging. Your customers will prefer blogs about your product, the industry ‘news’, ‘recent updates’ about your product or service, changes in the technology you use, and articles on how they can improve their business. Posting blogs that pique that interest or give them ideas to boost their business will bring them back to your page. Always have a link leading to your website in your blogs. This will lead the customers on your website, where they will know more about your brand/product and hopefully do business with you.
