Well I would imagine the content you write entirely depends on the company's product. Pick articles that you can spread elsewhere on the net with links back to the site, for link building.

Not really sure I understand, but you want to create a blog? Are you looking for hosting for it or just how to create and use a blog? Let alone, do you have a Theme/Topic for this blog?

If you want to create your own web hosting blog you need to try to make it very integrating for readers. Especially if the one is about web hosting.

1. Offer a "sharing links" service for your articles, like addthis.com

2. Articles should be related to company's activities. For example, if the company has to do with real estate business, you should write articles related to real estates.

3. Submit your blog to as many rss feed networks as possible.

Good points, it's a good start to write about what is relevant to your blog such as real estate, sports, business, running and maintaining a website and so on.

It's also a good idea to add your site to search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Alta Vista and so on to get some more exposure when people do searches on these engines.

Relevancy is content are a great start to get attraction, write what people want to read, not what they don't :)

A blog should have updated content. Add quality content everyday, just believe in the saying - content is king.

Hello,

The best idea is to use Wordpress to customize your Blog or Blogger probably is easier

Good Luck

Start out by installing Wordpress, then write some unique articles for the blog so that it gets some attention, book mark it, and link it from a few places.

That's what I do when I start a blog

1. is it enough to show articles on it?
Yes, articles are a great way to use your blog. Just make sure that the content of the articles complies with the subject or nature of the blog that you are writing them for. Also, for SEO be sure to include keywords within your articles to attract new visitors from search engines.

2. what kinds of articles should I write for it?
Again, make sure that you write articles that relate to what you create the blog for, for example, if you are create a blog about apples you would need to create articles about types of apples, benefits of eating apples, how to grow apples, etc etc.

3. is there any good way let many people can get the information on our blogs.
Yes, as I said about the SEO keywords in your articles - this is a great way to get started, but it doesn't end just there. You can also optimize the blog itself (and other elements) to rank better in search engines which will get you more visitors if you rank well. Aside from this you'll def want to use word of mouth to get things started.

Good luck!

Is daily update right? I mean if you run a business you might not have enough time to get on the blog and write a new update?

What if you update your blog, every Tuesday and Friday of each week, will that make a difference as opposed to updating it once a week any day?

Good content, content is king. Provide good stuff for people to read and people will eventually find it. Try to include SEO in your articles if you can, will only help you.

Create relationships with other bloggers and let them blog about your, as above said networking is key

so you already have a blog... what is you niche or product of your company.

focusing on your niche is a good start. Remember that you're writing because you want to share something that may be usable to others, so reader is another big consideration.

good luck!

not sure why you would host a blog for web hosting.
you want to catch the readers eye with your product. Not updates and how you summer was :)

I think it would be better paid hosting, domain name 2 level and Wordpress.
