The blog should be considered as one of the important section of your website. Because, when you write any blog each new content gives you an opportunity to rank for a target keyword that is related to your business. It is a great source to increase your organic search and hence the SEO of your website.

SEO is a web marketing technique used to improve your website visitors as well as keywords ranking in SERP. Blogging is also a good source for SEO because it helps with a number of things that are important for ranking and traffic. If you have a blog that's updated regularly with blog posts that are high-quality content and on topics relevant to your targeted audience, it can make a huge difference on search engines to the performance of your websites.

Here are some important reasons:

• Blogging keeps your website fresh and updated.
• A blog keeps people more engaging on your website.
• Through blogging, you can target long-tail keywords.
• Blog content gives you opportunities for internal linking.
• With blog content you can connect with your audience.

As an SEO point of view, it's eventually more important to the success of your website than where you are rankings. Through the blog, your target audience visiting your website, connecting with it, and becoming regular participants is more valuable than any number one place on Google.
A blog is a good technique to build those connections and start a continued relationship with the people you want to reach.

 Blogging is really important for your SEO.
Let's see points supporting my answer:
1. Whenever your blogs are shared and get clicked, they get to move up in SERP.
  This increases the popularity of your website.
2. Images in your blogs can build a good impact on your site and also on your SEO. Make sure you name them according to your keywords and do the same for the alt-text.
3. Videos give dynamic content to your website that you share with your audience. Make sure you serve the purpose of people watching the video and tag your videos with appropriate keywords.

SEO is really beneficial for blogging. If you're working in that environment then I must SEO is a mandatory technique that you need to follow to grab the readers attention on your website. In the blogging website, all you need to focus on the content. Always make sure that your content should be strong and unique. Google doesn't crawl and rank copied or plagiarize content. So try to make your content so strong enough that it will rank well in Google SERP.

The second important thing is the title. A lot of users first notice the title of the blog. The title is so important because after reading the same people get to know the meaning of a blog or what is exactly blog is all about. On the contrary, if you keep the title complicated then it will be difficult for the reader to get the meaning of the same and he/she won't read the further part of your blog.

Also, make sure while building a blog, if the content is strong enough and length of the same is 1000 to 1200 words then try to fit maximum 2 keywords in the same with two different hyperlinks to it. Don't give the same hyperlink to different keywords. If the total word count is less than 500 words then try to fit only one keyword into it with a hyperlink.

Another major part of blogging is, try to include appropriate media so that the blog becomes more interesting and grab the readers attention quickly. If the readers find your blog/article more interesting then that time only they will spend more time on your blog/website otherwise they will leave the same quickly.

If the reader or user leaving your blog/website too quickly then ultimately it will hamper (increase) the bounce rate of your website.

So according to me these are all mentioned SEO terms that one must consider while working for blogging and it will be beneficial for the same as well.

SEO is a wide concept. It includes two types of techniques one is On - Page and second is Off - Page. Blogging comes under off - page technique that is used to gain visitors on the website. If blog, forum and FAQ section is available on the website then it acts as a medium that connects the users and search engines onto the website.

Blogging always offers information to the visitors for which they are searching for. This helps them to get answer to their queries as well as to learn about your product and services. They also get to know the benefits of your products and services. This helps you to rank better in search engines.
