- **15% of the world’s biggest SaaS companies still don't have a blog (up from 11% in 2017).** Data from [Emily Byford's study](http://ek-byford.com/saas-content-marketing/#stats) showed that 38 out of the 250 biggest SaaS companies globally have no blog presence whatsoever.
- **There’s a subtle shift in how SaaS businesses use content.** In fact, 24% use the blog to educate their readers, while 20% are purely company-focused.
- **Blog to educate and inform your target audience.** Blogs that educate gain 14% more organic traffic vs company-focused blogs.
- **HubSpot vs WordPress.** 68% of enterprise SaaS companies use Wordpress for their CMS.
- **Lack of CTAs indicates absence of content strategy.** Lead generation is one of the greatest values we can gain out of blogging. That’s why it is surprising that many SaaS blog posts do not contain calls to action, which is vital for any lead-generating effort. In fact, 36% of SaaS blogs have no CTA. This shows that a lot of SaaS companies are blogging for the sake of blogging, without a content strategy to guide their efforts.

- **Insights from high-performing blog posts.** Top-performing blog posts are 12% longer than average and they get 10x more shares on social media, 15x more backlinks, and 10x more referring domains.
- **Organic search.** The top 10% of blog posts saw 2,514 organic search visitors per month
- **Involving customers.** SaaS businesses are planning to fit in customer success stories into platforms as a marketing strategy.
- **An opportunity to stand out through podcast.** 18% of the biggest SaaS companies have their own podcast.
