What do you mean you still don't have a veterinary blog?

What are the benefits of blogging for your veterinary business?

Updated Feb 2019

There are so many benefits to blogging for your veterinary business and over the years I've written quite a few posts on what those benefits are, so I've taken the opportunity to collect a number of posts and publish them in the one place including a resource that can help you plan, structure and schedule your blog posts for the year.

Need to get organised and plan your blog posts?

Then you will really appreciate this resource that is updated every year:

Vetanswers resources: Blog Posting Calendar January to December.  

To give you a bit of an overview, the Calendar is an excel document with three pages: 

Page 1: The Calendar includes a suggested focus topic for each month to help give you some topic ideas (feel free to completely ignore my suggestions & come up with your own of course)

Page 2: 40 suggested blog post topics 

Page 3: Tips to help you come up with the all-important Blog Post Title.  No one wants to read a blog with a boring title, now is the time to be creative!

I also thought it was a good time to update all the Vetanswers blog posts on blogging and compile them into one handy resource - so here it is...
