I can't believe there isn't a free module for Joomla to enable blog-like behavior. But if not, I would go with easy blog instead of running WordPress inside of a Joomla site.

There is also WordPress for Joomla from CorePHP <a href="http://www.corephp.com" rel="ugc">www.corephp.com</a>&nbsp;- similar costing I think. I have had limited experience with it but it seems to offer a WordPress user/blogger experience within a Joomla Admin framework.<br />
<br />
Personally I would probably also consider a normal Joomla articles authoring approach with &nbsp;an advanced comment option like Disqus.

Hi Guys, I have a Joomla 2.5 website. I would like to integrate a blog. I have 2 options<br />
<br />
EasyBlog - <a href="http://stackideas.com/easyblog.html" rel="ugc">http://stackideas.com/easyblog.html</a><br />
Wordpress - <a href="http://www.wordpress.com" rel="ugc">http://www.wordpress.com</a><br />
<br />
I know wordpress is very Google friendly, popular, easy to use and free. EasyBlog is specifically built for Joomla, and about $70, can be accessed from the Joomla Admin. What do you think the best option to go with?<br />
<br />

EasyBlog or Wordpress for Joomla 2.5 site

Joomla is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) for publishing web content. It is built on a model–view–controller web application framework that can be used independently of the CMS. Written in PHP, Joomla uses object-oriented programming (OOP) techniques and software design patterns, stores data in a MySQL, MS SQL  or PostgreSQL database, and includes features such as page caching, RSS feeds, printable versions of pages, news flashes, blogs, search, and support for language internationalization.

WordPress is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) based on PHP and MySQL for creating websites and blogs. Features include a plugin architecture, a template system and strong management, customization and search systems; through its dynamic presentation of content, webmasters have the flexibility to create websites easily.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the visibility of web content in search engines using an understanding of search engines' processes and algorithms. Also known as "natural" or "organic" search, it is distinct from paid web advertising. Performance is typically measured by testing the appearance of a website for targeted search terms, and more specifically, ranked positions in search for important keywords. Techniques focus on content optimization, technical optimization and link building.
