- Vandy,
In regards to your blog questions. Protocol would suggest you don't post the same blog on two different sites although there are aggregators that often do this beyond blog writer's control.
I recommend that when you have a good blog post you write a short paragraph or a few lines about it encouraging people to visit the other site. You can also write different blog posts on different sites.
Let me know if you need more.
