Are blogs a good addition to sites? We have one, and ost that I visit feature a blog on them, but nothing looks worse than one that hasn't been kept up-to-date.

I think this is the problem with them if you are pushed for time - once you start you have to keep on top of them and make sure you have some good fresh content.

Do you think they are essential for a new site, and which blog software is the easiest and best to install and use? I use wordpress myself, which seems ok.

I also think blogs are a good way to to get ranking , but it`s important to update it with quality content. As about the software , I also think Wordpress is the best, it has some nice antispam plugins .

Blogs definitely have a SEO benefit but probably not the same benefit they had a year or two ago. If you update your blog frequently with relevant info, you will be rewarded by Google. Stop updating and your whole site may be punished by Google.
