Is there any SEO disadvantage in using a subdomain to host a blog on WordPress or Blogger? I don't want to go to the trouble of creating a blog module for my site – I'd rather just set up a CNAME entry and point a subdomain to a free WordPress or Blogger account. Will Google punish me for doing this by claiming that I have "duplicate content" – i.e. the intro text for each blog entry will be on my main site and the full details will be visible on WordPress/Blogger? Is it better to incorporate the blog functionality into my main site? Are there any other potential disadvantages to this subdomain/external hosting approach using a free blog host?
