      I have a client who uses blogger.com as their blogging platform, however this isn't helping to build the depth of their domain.

      They like to use this because it is easier for them than to create a blog post in their wordpress website. I am wondering if adding a feed to their site on a dedicated blog page would help SEO at all or would it be best to teach them how to use the wordpress CMS to blog? I was thinking that by adding the feed since it is their original content that it might have a similar effect.

      I know this is probably simple but I want to see what the moz community says. Thanks.

        Personally I would either teach them how to use Wordpress, or just get them to send you a word document and charge them for posting it. The on site blog is going to be better for SEO.

          Thanks Lesley, That is the call we went with. I had to think about it for a minute. Also realized that a search engine would not pick up the content on that page they would only see the feed code and would pass authority back to the blog page.
