Default Are you blogging?
By now, it seems just about everyone has a blog; personal, professional or both.
A blog is a geat way to keep your current and prospective clients up to date on any improvements or upgrades in the services you offer - and it also keeps the search engines interested in your website because you've always got new, updated content on your site. It's a great place to make new client/project announcements as well.
One other common use for a professional blog is to provide links and information to free products and services online that might benefit your clients or those just passing through.

Are you blogging as an addition to your professional virtual assistance site? If so - what kinds of information do you share there? How often do you post? Do you accept comments on your blog? Do you monetize your blog (ie - run ads there?)
We're interested in developing this post as a general guide to professional blogging, aimed specifically at VA's - so add your own two cents and ask for a design/content critique if you like.

Feel free to elaborate here on your own blogging philosophies and ideas, and don't forget to share the link!
