Which is better for seo purposes? site/blog or site/community?

[DavidZA1]

Hi Guys

I was wondering if you could help on this one.

We are in the process of setting up a wordpress blog for our website to aid our content marketing efforts, and was wondering what main url for this blog is going to be the best for seo purposes?

So of the following 2 which one is going to be the better one?

site.com/blog or site.com/community

If anyone could get back to me on this I would appreciate it.

Thanks

David

I agree with Mark.  The question should be based on what kind of content you're putting there.

If you're wanting to make a community, why don't you use it to highlight users of your product or service?  This way they can share it as well and help you create your content.

I think the name should be reflective of the nature of the blog - is this a blog published from the site, which in my mind makes sense to call it blog, or is this something going to be created by and for the community of your audience, in which case it makes sense to call it community.

If you're publishing articles, behind the scenes info, general information, etc., I would call it a blog. If you're encouraging users to publish and it's more geared towards community participation, I would call it community.

Those are my two cents - good luck!
