Does Google prefer Wordpress Blogs?
-
In creating a regular brochure website such as one for a dentist or doctor, do you see any SEO benefit to having it based in a Wordpress blog?
I do see the SEO benefit of having an actual blog on the site and continually updating that, but simply using the Wordpress platform as a CMS - does that give the site any benefit?
If there is a benefit, is there a way to duplicate that advantage without going through the trouble of creating a Wordpress template for the site?
Maybe just publishing a sitemap.xml, and feed, etc?
Thanks!

People say google loves wordpress. Will know for sure tomorrow if google sends Wordpress a Valentine card.
Wordpress has a lot of free plugins that would help you optimize SEO. There is a bunch of free templates as well. There are some $70-100 very good ones.
Create a doctor Website using Pages. And then if you wish create a blog in a category where you can write smth interesting to bring traffic and link to your main pages.
Hope that helps,
Serge

Time for Google to change the emphasis?
Why doesn't Google recommend that links are nofollow as standard, via HTML5, etc., with follow being added if the link is on a quality site (defined by PR, or whatever.) and adds value. Wouldn't this save alot of time? Then they could whack all the sites with coding that doesn't comply, couldn't they? Also, instead of enabling negative SEO, why doesn't Google simply focus on wiping out the sites developed simply to pass on PR. I'm sure we could all send them a few thousand suggestions!
