    I have two sites
    • a business related site
    • a free service site

    And i am thinking to have a blog
    And i wana promote my daily life, sites update for both website above, so should i create two diff blog or only one?

    since the blog currently is installed in siteA, then is it good for siteB to link out to siteA blog (coz it's totally different interface, design)?

    Thanks for your comment

    The more the merrier. Two sites would be better than one if you have the time to tend them both. Link them all together with a common thread of some sort.

    Create blog for sure. You may fill it with related content and spread visitors between your sites as you like)

    Two blogs would be better, but you need to have the time to do two which is an issue for some people.

    If sites A & B are related, especially if they have the same name, then yeah, one blog can rule them all.

    Media Whiz now uses one blog for like 6 sites, though, as those are un-related, it does get annoying. As a member of ShoppingAds, I could care less about the other 5 updates that randomly happen.

    I have an occult site, and got the .com, .org, .net, and .info domains. In the nearish future I plan on expanding my sites to make each one of them different, but still related on the whole. Once that is done, my .info will be the blog for all of them. So it CAN work, though like I said, the closer the sites are in relation to themselves, the better a single blog will work.

    If the two sites have little to do with each other, then maybe put in two blogs... its not that much more work and does not take up that much more space... your readers will thank you.

    Too many jobs to be done in order to drive traffic along 3 sites
    I really hope to link two sites with one blog
    Design wise: not really good
    Time saving wise: damn good :)

    in addition, i can introduce my both service through one blog
    Freelance site <> webmaster resource blog <> PPC network

    Am i rite?

    I would use 2 sites. Link the one site to the site you want to get the most traffic

    I think 2 sites and 1 blog would work well for you.
