The benefits of advertising your business on the Barrhaven Blog
Benefit #1 – Content Marketing is one of the most effective ways to get your message across to consumers
Content marketing is vastly more effective than traditional banner ads. The Barrhaven Blog offers you a unique opportunity to share your expertise with the community and help build your reputation as a knowledge leader in your field.

We’ll work hard to get your content displayed where people do most of their reading and media consumption – social media. Your guest post on the Barrhaven Blog will be instantly shared on both our Facebook and Twitter channels. It will also appear on our iPhone and iPad apps.
Your message will reach thousands of local consumers – and that’s before the social sharing even begins. Some of our more popular posts have reached between 20,000 to 80,000 consumers. The secret is to craft a blog post that offers useful information that people will want to share with friends and family.
Benefit #4 – We’ll help you reach more consumers on Google
Let’s try a little experiment. Go to Google and search for “Barrhaven Restaurants”, “Barrhaven Bakery” or “Barrhaven Tailor”.
