Smile Starting a new blog?

I've read that blogs are seen better by search engines, because of their continuous update.
We've tried this thing before but we've got little results.
We want to create a new blog. My main interest is to bring traffic for cratima website and new business for the company.
Before we'll decide to transform this thought into reality I have some questions.
1. Should we put the blog on Cratima 's domain name, on should I make a blog on blogspot, myspace...etc.
2. Regarding the content. We want the blog to be about new internet solution that can help new businesses. a) We can search the web, find out news, filtered them and then put the most interesting in our blog. b) We can add value to different news on the net, value from our knowledge and business.
c) Use both articles with added value and some funny stories related to the businesses.
3. How many blog administrators are necessary to make it interesting (with quality and enough information)

Thanks!

well really blog serves as a support for a site so it should really contain the keywords which may be found in you website by doing this it may help your site when it comes to becoming a relevant site for search results to search engines. Using keywords to your post help the spider determine how relevant your site is specially when you use an anchor link whenever it is being crawled but remember blog should only serve as a support, your blog shouldn't be the one ranking off the search engines...

You may take this as a piece of advice for your domain:
"The most optimal URLs contain relevant, popular keywords and a minimal number of slashes, without any question marks. If using WordPress, be sure to change your "Permalink Options" to use rewritten URLs rather than the default of post IDs. If using TypePad or Movable Type, change from using the default of underscores to hyphens instead, as hyphens are preferred from Google's standpoint. TypePad and Movable Type also tend to truncate URLs mid-keyword. Consider for example the post on the TypePad platform titled "Hotels, Hospitality and Social Media" which converted to a URL of Diva Marketing Blog - Marketing blogs and corporate social media strategies for innovative companies . Note how the URL was truncated and the works "hospitality" and "social media" were lost. If using WordPress, make use of the "post slug," to custom write the filename of the post's URL and eliminate throwaway words from the URL such as "the" that appear in the post title but add no value in the URL...." (quoted from an article)

Regardless if you will be joining a social bookmark, social network, social media or any blog community as long as it targets the right market then your blog is just doing fine...

It's really hard to think of what your blog contents will be... thinking for a content doesn't need a group, this may be applicable for brainstorming, you just need an innovative person for one blog... if you wish to make numbers of blogs then that's the only time to call for a team of bloggers with different strategy on how to get people's interest.

I am at the moment experimenting with blogs to see if its worth having on a website. So far, I've learned that they do get optimized very quickly and depending on the content you have, It would bring in a lot of traffic if you use Social Bookmarking Sites.

Cratima 've read that blogs are seen better by search engines, because of their continuous update.
We've tried this thing before but we've got little results.
We want to create a new blog. My main interest is to bring traffic for cratima website and new business for the company.
Before we'll decide to transform this thought into reality I have some questions.

1. Should we put the blog on Cratima 's domain name, on should I make a blog on blogspot, myspace...etc.
You can use free hosting site.. Like wordpress and blogspot..
2. Regarding the content. We want the blog to be about new internet solution that can help new businesses. a) We can search the web, find out news, filtered them and then put the most interesting in our blog. b) We can add value to different news on the net, value from our knowledge and business.
You can have them both actually.. But in SEO.. you need to have a unique content.. so better go on letter B!
c) Use both articles with added value and some funny stories related to the businesses.
Just be sure that the content in your blog will going to matched in your theme.. not exactly as it is but the idea should be shared..
3. How many blog administrators are necessary to make it interesting (with quality and enough information)
Depends on the writer.. the writer should have the knowledge about what he/she writing.. has this kind of imagination and brings experience and observation to life..

Thanks!
