Blogs

I am thinking of starting a couple off site blogs for myself. 1 I might share some client information and link building and the other would be for me to rant.
I was thinking about doing a wordpress or blogger blog, someone recommended Tumblr.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Even if you want a blog on a separate domain, I would still go with a self hosted wordpress install. You'll look more legit, have more freedom, be able to modify / optimise the site the way you see fit and not have to worry about any 3rd party rules / limits etc.

Hi Kollin,
No matter what, for me a blog has always been synonymous with Wordpress because of unmatched options to customize, very easy on-page SEO opportunity with very nice plugins and the list can go on...
Best regards,
Devanur Rafi.

Is it better to have a blog under your main website's domain or should the company's blog have its own domain? And if the blog is on its own domain, do links to the main site look good or bad to Google? Thanks! (And please feel free to add any other related advice you might have...)

Blog Directories
Will links from blog directories to our subfolder-located blog within our website help the ranking of our overall site? In other words, will it just help the rankings of the main blog page (where the directory links are pointing to), or will it pass the link juice to the rest of the site? Thanks!

Is it worth editing older blog posts for SEO purposes?
The title of the question asks it all. One site I currently work on has a handful of blog posts that rank really well in the SERPS for certain "long-tail" searches. Would it be worth the time to, when I have it, to go back and edit the blogs little by little to help with SEO and building some links throughout the site to get people where we need them to go? Basically "sprucing" up the blog posts to make them more readable, more engaging and help some link building efforts within the domain. Thoughts?
