Looks like a blog, swims like a blog, and quacks like a blog... Must be a blog!

What makes you think a blog would be devalued in any way? Content is content.

Well would BBC / CNN be happy calling their main news website a blog?

I would say the opposite - blogs are overvalued. They get normal Google SERP listing and many searches show "top blog results" at the top. And Google built an entire system to search only blogs. [edit - comparison to a "regular" site not news] But 800 words of content is 800 words of content no matter what the medium is for delivery. [edited by: BradleyT at 8:16 pm (utc) on May 21, 2009]

Probably not, because their main news Web sites aren't set up as blogs. But there are plenty of news sites (possibly including the BBC and CNN) that have blogs and use the "b" word without shame.

I think you could probably rebrand the site without moving the content. The average user won't know or care if you move the content.
