If you publish at least two articles, e.g. blog posts on your website per week and thus your sitemap grows piece by piece, this shows Google and other search engines that you continuously provide up-to-date information that potentially has a higher benefit for users. In the best case, you will benefit from a better, i.e. higher, search engine ranking - ideally on the first page - and thus receive more free search engine traffic, so-called organic traffic.
As is true everywhere, staying on the ball pays off
In the short term, the effect may seem small to you. But consider how quickly two articles a week and 52 weeks a year can add up to a triple-digit number of articles or blogposts. 100 opportunities per year to find and engage relevant prospects with entertaining copy on your topic and products. You often leave your competitors far behind in this regard.
Already after a few years you have considered and described your topic from all possible angles, pointed out all typical mistakes, created FAQs and How-To's for beginners, always discussed the latest innovations and thus created over time an article catalog and archive, from which you can benefit in the long term and that will help you in the long run to more visitors, prospects and customers (so-called long tail content).
This evergreen content forms the basis, the foundation for your future business success. So it's worth investing in content creation.
For many B2B service providers and companies, acquiring new customers is a major challenge. Often, the market environment is very competitive, i.e. there is a multitude of comparable offers and competitors in the respective niche, region or industry. With increasing competitive pressure within the market segment, click prices for online marketing campaigns also rise, resulting in lead costs in the double- or triple-digit euro range.
What is the alternative?
With the help of so-called content marketing, you attract potential prospects and convince them of your offer. This is a marketing strategy that often pays off if you can't compete with the multi-million dollar marketing budgets of international corporations.

Collect leads and contact information for later contact
Has the prospect:in moved on your website, you have managed in the optimum case to trigger a direct order. In the vast majority of cases, however, this is not the case and so it is important to at least get the website visitor to at least bookmark your website for a later revisit or to make a request, e.g. to use a demo version, a free consultation or an individual offer.
The question of the optimal product price for the own offer drives many founders and entrepreneurs around. If you do not have a comparable product or service, i.e. no direct competition, the price is not formed on the market by competition, but primarily through your pricing and thus according to your internal calculation.
When pricing, always keep in mind: The lower the price, the higher the probability that you will sell to problem customers. Because: You can never please customers with a cheap-is-hungry mentality.
Keep away customers who can't afford your products or services or don't value your time.
Generally, B2B prices must be higher than retail because the volume, i.e., the number of customers you can acquire in a month or year, is much lower.
Customers who look at three- or four-digit product prices with their "consumer glasses" quickly consider you overpriced or usurious and are quickly put off by them, but completely disregard the fact that the cost of acquiring a new B2B customer, the so-called customer acquisition cost, e.g. through high online marketing costs for advertisements or a telephone sales team is usually several hundred euros or dollars. At the same time, the number of potential customers is limited, but the number of competitors fighting for the potential deals is not.
