Putting the blog in a /blog/ folder is certainly an option but I was hoping to have people find the blog before they find the tgp. So google would still link to the main
www.com TGP area first.
The whole idea behind starting a blog is that I'm thinking I'll get better conversions/sales by teasing the surfers with posts - rather than "giving away" all the free stuff in the TGP area.
The /blog/ seems like it would cause me to have to build up the traffic and google ranking from scratch. Maybe I'm wrong.
