      Our domain has/had a blog on a seperate subdomain. However we were a little slack in always keeping this up to date when we are particularly busy.

      Rather than reinstating the blog, I have been adding all our new articles directly onto the website rather than as blog posts.

      Is there any advantage from an SEO perspective to posting articles to a blog rather than as content on a site?

        If your new articles are crawlable, indexable and well linked to internally they will do just fine from an SEO perspective.

        The main advantages I see to using a blog is the built-in features the platform provides (content management, themes, plug-ins, rss feeds).

        • From a company perspective; would you recommend using a service like postloop to acquire additional blog comments through paying users.

        • Same content on site blog as a separate blog. Will unpublishing on one blog evade duplicate content issues?
