I did an experiment website using Word press. Uploaded 5 articles on the subject and one blog post. Result: Google ranked me on the second page for one set of keywords, and 4th on some other keywords. The topic of the blog/site was insurance. And you KNOW insurance companies are paying millions just to appear on the top! And i did all this with a NEW Domain, and Word press. That is why i am now confused...as my new site is a type of personal development site, which will have a static homepage, a blog and a forum. I would argue otherwise.

I am actually trying to figure out whether I should use a WP blog or static page for my affiliate review page, or possibly a static page with a blog under a subdirectory www.xxx.com/blog, that points to my review page. Although my question is still unanswered, your post does help, as I have heard all too many times that blogs are the only way to go. -Shaun Thanks for that post.

I had notice many affiliate program promoted using html, eventually lost traffic due to duplicating pages. Google hate duplicating content. But I also agreed with the notation not to put all eggs into one basket, you need a mixed of blog and static html pages.

I am currently working around with two different niche sites. One is using the static html and one is in blog form. I was surprised that even when it comes to search engine optimization, I have quicker and more permanent result with my static site. I have seen my blog getting in the top 5 pages of Google with my target keyword but most of the time, it fluctuates down to the 11th page which is very frustrating while my static site maintain its position without me adding content for three months.

Thus the abundance of static sites still in the SE indexes. But I bet in 2 - 3 years you will see it the other way around. Most people using blogs for adsense income do not use blogging properly either IMHO. If instead of using all posts for the adsense displays, write pages which exist outside of the post chronology.
