What platform is it better to write my blogs
-
In a nutshell, I have a website and on the web site I have a rolling blog updated regularly with informative ,interesting and non pushy original material.
However . I notice that my website blog has a lower page and domain Authority than my original platform which is on Googles very own platform "blogger" .
Should I use Blogger or the website ? or would it be better to promote the website blog on blogger ? or am I over thinking this ?

Thanks for the peace of mind and for a change it seems im doing something right.
I suppose its ok to promote the articles on my web site through my blogger account . IE A one line description a picture and a link to the Article.

I'd take the domain authority of blogger out the this equation. That is one downfall of DA, is that it'll show a real high domain authority for a blogspot.com domain, even though in this case it's really the authority of the subdomain that matters.

Hi.
My web site blog is http://www.bridalshoesuk.co.uk/pages/News.html and my blogger is http://weddingshoeuk.blogspot.co.uk/.
I started using our web site as the platform, just because we were adding new and original content regularly
For a few years I did use the blogspot account which has more authority but i tend just to promote the bridalshoesuk post from there at the moment.
Im new to Moz and still getting my head round whats right and wrong. I was told (not on moz) that i should have my blog on my website. When I learned on moz about Page rank and Authority I am now questioning where would my blogs be best placed.
Hope this helps
Peter

Blogger is a great platform and with great content it ranks accordingly, what platform are you using now for your blogging? If you are using something similar like wordpress I would not worry about what platform you are using as much as what content you are producing and where it is ending up/ who and where it is being linked to.

References for Healthcare Blog Content?
Hey everyone, We have a couple B2C medical/healthcare clients we produce content for and I was wondering what the industry stance is when it comes to giving references at the end of a blog, assuming there were no statistics or direct quotes used in the content. A lot of our content is written via research on a specific condition/treatment and doesn't really dive deep into specific medical nuances. Things like risks, recovery timelines, questions to ask, etc. are written about mostly. Still, should we be providing general references at the end of blogs to sites like WebMD, Medscape, etc. Thanks for any input!

How Are You Handling Blog Posts/Author Pages when Employees Leave the Company?
What do you believe to be the best approach in handling blog content for employees once they have left the company? We don’t want to remove the blog posts so they need to stay, but then there are the author pages. This gets tricky because the CMS ties the blog post to the author. One approach might be to change the author’s name to the Company’s name to get around author pages for people no longer with the company. It’s kind of tricky because the blog posts won’t have the same credibility if they don’t have a person’s name/photo associated with the post. We could leave the blogger’s page and list him as a “Contributing Author” once he’s left the company. Thoughts?

Lost in the blog world
I want to start a blog, but honestly I have no idea where to start as I've got so many questions so I hope someone can help me out. I have a Magento e-commerce website so I've got the possibility to integrate the WP extension. Would that be a good idea or is it better to have a separate blog and separate server? Which blog platform is considered to be the best and what are the main differences between the big blog platforms? Should I use my business (domain) name for my blog or have a separate (domain) name? How often are you 'supposed' to blog per week/month to build a strong blog? Many thanks in advance!
