Tweetmeme vs Twitter Button
-
So I am curious as to what benefits to each of these plugins would outweigh one or the other.
I began using the Tweetmeme plugin for our main blog because it offered the option to use our own bit.ly pro short code. +1 for branding. Plus I think there is some value in having your site and link on tweetmeme, but I overheard that Twitter's own Tweet Button for blogs offers better SEO than the Tweetmeme for blogs.
I am out of my area of expertise. Any thoughts?

Thanks. That's is a good reason to use the tweet button. Checking out the article now.

Hi Thomas! That's a great question. Rae Hoffman actually wrote a really excellent post recently talking about she swtiched from the TweetMeme button vs the official Twitter one. I highly recommend checking it out: Why I Switched from TweetMeme to the Official “Tweet Button”.
The feature I like best is that you can set up the official twitter button to recommend Twitter accounts!
Hope this helps,
Jen

Index.html vs. default.html
Hi, I have a website that is about 7 years old. I had been using index.html as the home page. When I redesigned my site about 3 months ago I changed it to default.html. The old index.html page was still on my server. I just realized my mistake. All of my links to the home page lead to the new default.html. However, people are still landing on the old index.html. I have change the old index.html to the new design but that means i have 2 "home" pages out there. Should i delete one? Should I leave them both there but use the canonical tag for one so it is not considered duplicate content? What is best for my rankings?

Blogs: Hosted vs. Off-Site
What is the latest opinion on whether to have a blog hosting on your primary domain or on an outside domain (either Wordpress or just another URL). In the past we have done the former and it's been a great source of fresh content and organic traffic. Wonder if there is good argument now for not having it on the domain. With this new site we're working on it logistically would be more challenging given their tech resources, plus they already have thousands of pages.
