Innovate: Your brand will have at best a limited shelf life if a culture of innovation doesn’t pervade your business.

As should be obvious, this set of metrics is biased not only to product centric data, but also toward historical data, and does not take into account experience or forward looking trends & preferences.

Blogging is much more than the latest trend and is here to stay. A simple cost/benefit or risk/reward analysis should indicate whether your effort will be of value to you, and even if it is not of value to you, it may be to others.
