Subdomain or Directory for a WP Blog ?

[MMacGillivray]

Hi - you don't say whether or not your web host runs cPanel - if it does, then installing wordpress is a click of a button from the Fantastico scripts section. It will go in a directory - or at the top level of your site, depending on what you'd like to do. I think other web hosts also offer this easy install feature.

The search engine benefits of a blog come when the blog and the rest of your site can be spidered; so your site navigation should include the blog in its structure and it should be possible to navigate back to the rest of your site from the blog.

Best wishes
