and wordpress isn't hacked nearly as easy as everyone says, as long as you follow some pretty easy safety protocols you won't have any issues...most of the hacking you hear of is from people that run hundreds of blogs and set them up and leave them be...I haven't ever had a wordpress install hacked in 5 years of blogging with wordpress
as for blogs being better, yes, they are....mainly because a static page is just that, static, google and other se's see it never changing, so they come back less to check it out, a blog constantly changes, so googlebot comes back LOTS....i have one blog with googlebot hitting it 500 times a day
the blogs you see with just a few lines of text and a couple images are just bad blogs IMO, the whole idea behind a blog is writing about something
but then again, just starting a blog doesn't guarantee you traffic, you need to know how to work that shit once you get it going
i can usually start a blog and have it up to 500 uniques a day within 2 weeks, all organic se results, but I have been doing this a while and know a lot of tricks
if you ever need any help, let me know, would love to show you a few things....hell, maybe make a dinner night out of it before I leave atlanta
