WordPress will allow your visitors to comment on every post, plus every blog post you make is another web page and gives you a chance to rank in the search engines for your key terms. You'll get crawled by the search engines more often, keep visitors coming back to your site more, and maintain keyword-rich content on a daily basis. If you need help with installation, let me know.

David, you can read more about blogging, including software, at www.blogmarketingjournal.com. Mark, sorry. Didn't see a video. Doug, since your site is a static html website, you'll need to add code if you want your visitors to comment on certain portions of it. I did notice that you built the website with Frontpage. Not a good idea. You have too many keywords listed in your keyword meta tag. I'd keep reading SEOJ and learn everything you can about SEO. If you want commenting and community type features then you might be better off with a CMS system like Joomla or Drupal. Steve, keep reading SEOJ. :-) Irene, glad I could help.

I have been very successful in using blogging to develop domains and increase the value for resale or advertising. I currently use the ireporter tool. I just put up a video on www.domainnews360.com Video is pre--recorded so just hit play. It is on right side of page. let me know what you think. Good stuff, I couldn’t agree more.

We've assessed over 1,000 blogs to determine their SEO value. Many can provide an initial benefit, but fail to deliver long term. Generally this is because the archives are not well linked. Article tagging (TAGS) allow for an easy way to deep-link to older posts and thereby produce a long term SEO benefit. There are other means to internal content optimization and blogging software varies significantly in the way that they structure information. I'd like to see a comprehensive assessment of blogging software. David Rodecker “getting <a href="http://relevantads.com" rel="nofollow">local business online</a>" 888.8-RELEVANT Good topic Nick,
