With smaller businesses, it is often the manager who decides to make a blog that showcases his or her own expertise in the industry, with perhaps a mention or two of some anecdotal evidence from some of their peers. Is this type of blog (heavy on personal knowledge, light on research) sufficient for a business-oriented blog? Well, yes and no&#8230; The fact of the matter is that many of the readers of your blog entries will be looking for information about your particular industry, and they want to see evidence that you know what you are talking about. If you are relying on your own personal experience, you&#8217;d better include that in the entry (it&#8217;s not enough to assume people have read the &#8220;author profile&#8221; section of your blog!). Any references to industry peers better include links; not only to improve the authenticity of your information, but also to cite your sources to avoid accusations of plagiarism. So, how do you &#8220;meat up your blog&#8221;? Find some research that goes along with your entry&#8217;s"}
