Ideally, for SEO purposes you'll have such a project on a different server, as Google at least has some algo in it's pocket for devaluing internal links - namely in the form of Hilltop and LocalRank as we know it.

It also makes good business sense for human users - if your server suffers a fatal error, you can still communicate directly to your customers through the other site.

Ideally, such systems - such as business support forums - will even be run from a completely different datacenter.

Oh, yes, I've been there. You learn from getting burned.

Welcome, frankybme! :)

If you are sure you can keep your blog up-to-date and provide important content to your visitors, then it's a nice thing to have. But don't do it if you're not going to post often to the blog.

You might be interested in this guest article I published in my newsletter recently:

Blogs Mean Business

I'm moving this thread to the "Search Engine Friendly Design and Usability Category."
