Why is content so important for my website? Because, in order for your website to show up in the search results, search engines need to understand what your website is about. The easiest way to tell them is through your content, that is how the engines work.
 
Even more importantly though, content is for your prospective clients. It allows them to gain an understanding of what you are about as a business, in an effort to ultimately convert them! Creating meaningful and informative vs. informational (which is right? does it matter?) content is one of the most effective ways to develop loyalty and conversions with prospects.
