Thanks for jumping in Dan! I think that it might be a niche issue. I am just trying to rule out any technical stuff. We actually do put out white papers, ebooks, infographics, webinars, etc. on a monthly basis. The traffic has been steadily increasing through social and referral sources but organic has been a bit slower. Something like 10% unique year-over-year. It could just be due to the size of the local search market.

Interesting....
So, you don't think url structure matters in terms of seo?
All three of these URL should perform just the same?

RE: Website.com/blog/post vs website.com/post
Thanks for the responses! I was thinking it might have small impact but not much. I prefer to set-up websites without it if at all possible.
We have been adding about 12 new posts per month to a website for just over a year now and the traffic is just not taking off. It's been sitting at ~80 visitors a day for awhile. When I look at GA I can see the blog posts are not getting a lot of impressions. Not sure what is causing it... Could just me the niche. It a local company in the Phoenix market.
When we add content like this for our other clients traffic starts to go right up...

Website.com/blog/post vs website.com/post
I have clients with Wordpress sites and clients with just a Wordpress blog on the back of website. The clients with entire Wordpress sites seem to be ranking better. Do you think the URL structure could have anything to do with it? Does having that extra /blog folder decrease any SEO effectiveness?
Setting up a few new blogs now...
