Site blogging allows you to show new pages as blog posts (search engines currently find these faster). Then, after the blog posting is stale, the listing roles to your actual site page.

Imagine having a feature (no need to imagine!) that uses the time-sensitive publishing of blogging that super-accelerates the indexing of your web site pages!! Wow. SBI does that.

SBI is currently (but not for much longer) not offering a full blogging capability. However a new module is coming in the next few (months? weeks? I'm holding my breath in anticipation) that will allow integration of a blog (like Blogger or Typepad) with your SBI site. Now - this may not seem earth shattering - but I'm totally jazzed.

Any updates on SBI and blogging capability? Asked this question to SBI a couple of months ago. One of their facilitator affiliates was supposed to respond but didn't.

I am interested in the best and easiest longterm solution for writing and popularizing a blog. I think I'm I looking for an SBI type of system for bloggers. Easy to follow....all inclusive. Any suggestions much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

To me a blog is easier to manage than a website right now. I do web and graphic design and I have clients who I do those services for. I am good at creating websites, but at the same time, I just want something that doesn't take so much time.

Why not blend both ideas and get the best of both worlds. Place your blog on the free site and link to it from your web site. Wouldn't you then pulling traffic from both directions once you link back to your site from the blog. That way they would compliment each other. Personally my blogs within my own site but then its only about what I'm looking to accomplish. At least for now anyway.
