HubSpot’s 2025 State of Blogging Report [Data from 500+ Marketers]

Full disclosure, I think my team and I are a little embarrassed. Believe it or not, blogging is kind of our main thing here at The HubSpot BLOG — so the fact that it‘s taken over a decade for us to put together our first-ever report on the state of blogging isn’t the best look.

But hey! As that Chinese proverb says, “The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is right now.” That’s why we surveyed over 500 marketers across various industries and company scales to get a pulse on the current state and future fate of blogging.

We covered all of the big bases, including:

  • Do companies still publish blog content?
  • Why do companies blog?
  • What kind of content are companies publishing?
  • Where does blog traffic come from?
  • How is AI transforming the practice?
  • How are blogs adjusting in the era of E-E-A-T?
  • Where is blogging headed?
  • So much more!

Check it out! Yeah!

Do companies still publish blog content?

Short answer? Yeah, they do — for good reason.

Our survey indicates that 65% of marketers are employed by companies that maintain blogs, and they generally post pretty diligently. Our research found that:

  • 37% publish two to three times per week.
  • 30% publish weekly.
  • 7% publish bi-weekly.
  • 5% publish monthly.

Most of those respondents also say blogging is still pretty crucial to their broader marketing strategies. Of our respondents whose companies publish blog content:

  • 47% cite it as being very important.
  • 46% cite it as being important.
  • 5% cite it as being neutral.
  • 2% cite it as being less important.

That‘s why blogging remains a pretty significant staple of many marketing orgs’ budgets. According to our research:

  • 24% of marketers from blog-producing businesses say they dedicate less than 10% of their marketing budget to blogging.
  • 31% say they allocate 11-20% to it.
  • 25% say they allocate 21-30% to it.
  • 18% say…

See where blogging stands in 2025.
