How to make use of blog networks?
-
I read on a forum recently that someone was using blog networks as his primary tool for SEO. I'm not sure what he meant beyond this, however...
Can anyone provide tips on how I might use one, and which are some of the best?
Thank you very much in advance.

Who's suggesting anything?
I was merely asking for some information about blog networks, and how (if at all) they may be utilized for SEO...
-
You stand a good chance of being penanlized for trying to manipulate rankings. What you are suggesting sounds to me like a link farm.

Thanks. So the idea is that you apply to a network and if they let you in, what happens next? The article, though useful, didn't explain too much about how one can take advantage of blog networks in one's niche...

A blog network is a group of blogs that are connected to each other in a network. The advantages of such networks are pretty obvious, from the SEO point of view. Fast indexing of new content, ping and trackback, one way and 3-way links, article marketing, etc... Read this article for further details and some examples: What is a blog network?
Now, finding new networks in your niche is something that you need to do it yourself. Just do a research on Google and you'll certainly find what you're looking for.

Reviving a (very) old blog - is it worth shifting the content onto a new blog?
I look after a few ecommerce sites, one of them doesn't currently have a blog, we are setting up a wordpress blog now for the site. Going way back in time the site did have a blog which was on a separate Typepad domain. What I'm wondering is whether it is worth redirecting this whole blog to the new blog section of the site and copying some of the content over to the new blog as historical posts? I don't think it will be possible to redirect each individual post to a new one so it will just be a straight redirect of the old blog domain to the new one with the same (most of anyway) content. Do you think it is worth doing this for the value of this content which is relevant but dated (many of the links are now expired)? Doing this will take some time to do so it's not 'free' content we'd be getting We have a lot of new content planned out so we won't be short of content, just would be nice to have some historical content on there too Thanks

How long should a quality blog post be?
How long should a "quality" blog post be? General advice seems to be that a 300 word post just won't cut it, but advice on the optimum length is vague. I appreciate that all posts are different but is there a rule of thumb, is 1000 words good and 1500 too long...or should they are all aim to be 2000 words? Also with regards to pictures in blogs, can they just be taken from the web or are there sites that I should be using to source the pictures? Thanks

I have created 2 blogs for a client as they have 2 domains (1 for their core business, and 1 for a product). I want to use the same content on both blogs. What is the best way to set this up so there are no ranking or duplicate content issues?
We are pushing SEO for only one of the domains, therefore I would like one to be dominant. We will be sending the blog post via email to their database, therefore each blog needs to have the same content. Thank you!
