Does it do any damage to post my blogs for marketing community websites on my own website too?
-
I'm blogging quite often for one of the biggest marketing community's in the Netherlands and I want to post these blogs on our own company's weblog too. Our own blog is meant for sharing professional know how and boosting our identity as professional web agency. But off course, we also benefit from it SEO wise. If I post these blogs on our own weblog, I have to add a link to the original article on the marketing community website. So, my question is: will that cause any damage for our own website?

Panda is a ranking reduction that can effect an entire site. It is believed to occur when a site has a lot of duplicate content.
So, if you post a lot of duplicate content on your site you should not be surprised to see a ranking reduction occur. You might avoid the problem if you post the content with noindex.... maybe.
Also, if you are linking straight to the duplicate on a more powerful site that almost guarantees that your version of the content will be at least filtered.

I'm not sure if it will cause any damage SEO wise, but it will definitely not provide much, if any, value. You can try using Google's original source meta tags here:

But the original source tag is still experimental.You could try turning some of the articles into whitepapers and having them available for downloadable on your site. Just make sure to block the PDFs with your robot.txt file. Or have people sign up to your mailing list and then e-mail them the whitepaper.

Is having two blogs bad?
I'm under the impression we should only have one blog, but the company I work for wants to have our original blogger site AND link it to a blog on our website. We're basically just duplicating content, which I know to be bad. Is there any benefit to using both? If not, (which I'm guessing there isn't) which one should we keep? Does google prefer we use blogger, instead of putting it on our company site? Do the links we get from blogger help for SEO more than just putting it on our site? Any advice would be appreciated. P.S. The Blogger account has been around longer, but it doesn't have substantial traffic. It gets about 200 pages vies a month, right now. However, the one on the website gets far less than that.

Posts vs Pages and Rankings Differ Greatly
I use wordpress for most of my sites and generally have a post 'news' section. What I've noticed is that just about every time a post will always rank much higher and much faster than a 'page'. As long as I don't let it get buried in the news archives it continues to rank well, better than if I were to create a 'page'. Is there any sort of reason this might occur? I'd like to be able to just create 'pages' but at this point in time it makes no sense.

Opinions for the Long URL strings in WordPress Blogs.
We use Wordpress for our agency Blogs. The URL's are very long and the Moz does not like the long URL's. Should we use the stubby, short Wordpress URL's for each blog post? Is there a "Best Practice" for how one should use the Wordpress URL string?
