If you're a Google-head, the company has you covered with a slew of blogs. There's a blog for Docs, one for analytics, another for YouTube...you get the picture.

One segment they didn't have a blog for was small business. Well, that changed today.

Introducing the Google Small Business Blog.

It appears the idea was born out of Google's recent Small Business series on the Official Google Blog, where a handful of real-life entrepreneurs shared their experiences building companies from scratch and embracing Internet tools that have taken their businesses to the next level.

As a result, Google wrote today, "We’ve received fantastic feedback about these posts, and realized that there’s a healthy appetite among small- and medium-sized business owners who want to know all about the latest web tools and tricks. Fortunately, we have lots more to share with you, too!"

The Google Small Business Blog will be a "central hub that brings together all the information about our products, features and projects of specific interest to the small business community," the company wrote.

The other reason for the blog, Google wrote, was basically it was a good way to keep all small business content in one place:

Rather than having to sleuth around in many different locations for details about templates for creating video ads on YouTube, tips for your employees using Gmail or how to respond to the business reviews on your Place Page, you can find all of this helpful information right here in one place.

Are you a small business owner? What do you think of a Google-focused blog for your needs?
