I too know both types of business bloggers and it's often hard to see the difference. This is why I like measuring traffic and analytics. It's hard to know how you're doing unless you know how it was before. <br><br>Knowing SEO is a very valuable aspect of running a blog, one of the most important, but unless you measure your traffic, visits, interactions, revenue etc, you're never going to know whether it's making any difference. I like to look at stats on a weekly basis, though more often it's every other week or even monthly. The basics are very easy to understand and I'm working on a few things to try and simplify that for my clients even more. Excellent question Zack, thanks!

It's funny how us techie guys and gals have to identify that to the larger community online as a warning that we know stuff.

But I see more and more blogs with very little strategy and I personally know the owners of the blog are making a ton of money and expanding their network with it too.

So here's the techie question, is knowing all the SEO and stuff really where people need to spend their time when getting started blogging?

Put another way, do we really need to worry about analytics and measurable traffic for our small business if we don't know how yet?
