Maybe you have a perspective that sums up as a story and out of it you desire to share your experiences and offer expert advice; perhaps gained during your school life, career or even life in general or even want to provide a guide on “how to solve a challenge” : the list is endless.

For instance : Businesses mostly use it to improve their Search Engine Optimization and increase their website traffic inflow; and others, (especially Startups and SMEs) use it as a platform to share more in-depth knowledge on a new launched product.
Companies use blogging as a brand building strategy. Basically, to give their clients and customers the confidence to trust their product and services. Their motivation is building their company reputation and gaining higher trust percentage from their consumers hence expanding their business empire.

Every time you publish an article and read the feedback comments, in one way or another, you’ll find out that someone’s life was changed somehow.
