Which blog is best
-
We use Bigcommerce, at the moment we use wordpress for our blogs, bigcommerce has its own blog.
Is it better to use the Bigcommerce blog or Wordpress.
-
I think you can try with Tumblr or Weebly. I used two types. It is quite easy and beautiful.
In case, you want to use WordPress, I suggest you to migrate from BigCommerce to WooCommerce. It is a WordPress's plugin. Experts say that WooCommerce is simple, easy to control but beautiful. It is suitable for small and medium business with low budget and less technical knowledge.

I can't honestly speak for Bigcommerce as it is a platform that I have never used, however we do use Wordpress and recommend it all the time to may of our clients.
This isn't really your issue though as to get the best of using Wordpress and its full functionality and access to its many apps etc and to be of benefit to your store on an SEO level it would need to be on the same domain as the Bigcommerce site which I understand can't be done directly on their servers as is the case with many hosted stores.
In this instance you would have to put the Wordpress blog on a sub-domain and there is a good article about how this can be achieved here http://inkblotdigital.com/2014/wordpress-blog-bigcommerce-store/
Whichever solution you choose I wish you well with your endeavours.

Best way to handle blogs for a customer with a chain business?
I have a new customer who owns three local gyms. Each one has its own unique url. I intend to do some blogging for him, and would like it to be effective for SEO. Obviously, publishing duplicate content is out, but writing tons of new posts each month is beyond our scope. Would you recommend having one separate blog (with its own url) that is linked from each of the 3 main sites, or would it be better to create a blog on each site and alternate publishing articles on each one, putting a unique intro and link to the main post on the other two?

Best SEO Approach for Scanned PDFs
I've just found a large number of great technical papers that we have written over the years. They are all scanned pdf's but still relevant. Currently they exist as a download but it seems to me that as each is approximately 5000 words of unique content we ought to be able to get some mileage out of them So I'm thinking of OCRing them, editing and putting them up as blog post with lots of links (10 - 20 max over the post length) to product pages (as it discusses a lot of the technical aspects underlying the products). Is this the best way of maximising benefit from them? Are there any other ways that would be good to use them?

A Blogs appearance
What are peoples opinions on a blog and its appearance in relation to a site. The two ways being - 1. A Blog that is fully fitting within the theme of the main website. 2. A seperate entity following a standard wordpress theme Now I have seen many different scenarios and I wanted to share some experiences and gain insight from other people on here. I once spoke to a web designer who totally frowned upon the idea of it being a separate entity. "It looks cheap it doesn't fit within the design" My thoughts are benefits can been found with having a separate looking blog it provides that realistic "student" type look and feel adding a "realistic" angle. Thanks for your opinions,

Blog Posts Not Getting Indexed by SERP's
Our blog posts are typically indexed rather quickly, sometimes within 10 minutes or so. Lately it seems like it is taking much longer, and a post from yesterday afternoon isn't appearing in any of the search engines. Can anyone give me an idea why this may be happening? http://www.360dwellings.com/2011-denver-parade-of-homes-luxury-home-tour/
