Ever wondered why you should blog regularly and what kind of content to write about? Here are super short answers about MSP blogging
There are lots of different ways to get blog content onto your MSP's website. Let me give you super short answers to some of the most frequent questions about this.
Why do I need blog content?
Up-to-date blog content on your website shows your MSP is active. It can also be great for demonstrating expertise and authority in technology.

How often should I post content?
The best cadance is once a week.
What is syndicated content?

Where do I get content ideas from?
Your clients and prospects. Listen to the questions they most frequently ask and write answers to those questions. This article was inspired by someone asking me about this subject earlier this week. Here's another way to generate content ideas.
