In addition, you have a blog with a few short entries on it, and that\u2019s about it.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s compare that to a rival site that also promotes their holiday rental in the same area as yours.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve spent more time writing and honing their content, and adding further blog posts and pages in the process.<\/p>\n<p>To date, they have around 20 pages of content on their site. They also make a point of adding regular, timely and relevant blog posts whenever they can, usually once or twice every week or two.<\/p>\n<p>That means their site has four times as much content as yours, without even going into the amount of blogging they\u2019ve been doing. Which means, they have more pages that can be found via any search engine.<\/p>\n<p>In our example, your website is relying on the power of just five pages to help visitors find you.
