Perhaps I have #1 and #3 reversed in order of importance? I'd hope people will eventually like my stuff for what it is, but they have to find me to like me and SEO is a tool toward that end. Thanks, as always, for reading. I really appreciate it and good luck with your teleclass. -Jeff Diana-

If a company can't develop a good Website that includes educational content (articles, white papers, case studies, etc.) optimized for search engines, then the company really shouldn't start a blog. It's the *content* that's important, not keywords. However, I do agree that search engines like blogs -- but you can achieve the same thing with a Website. You have to regularly add content. That's why SEs like blogs. Jeff — I’ve been thinking of the whole “blogging is good for SEO” idea and I have to say that starting a blog merely to target keywords really bothers me.

Hopefully I'm thinking there might be other good uses for the blog, over time.
