    Default Blog syndication question

    I have not been very consistent yet with blog postings, I started a typepad blog in March or April and maybe have 8 or 9 posts. My question is that I was sent an email asking if I wanted to syndicate this blog on another site. I guess I am already doing that as I have an inman RSS feed set up. Does syndicating help or hurt SEO? Are there any disadvantages to syndication. My initial reaction is that it will be giving link juice to the syndicator, but can that help me?

    If your feed goes on other people's websites then that is always a good thing. If their feed goes on yours, it better be some damn good content

    Keep in mind, you have little control or ability to monitor feed generated content, so you are allowing others to post content to your website (Which is a reflection of you) without the ability to first moderate that content.

    Incidentally I have no problem with Inmann as it is relevant, and you can be assured will be of very high quality. Some random request, I would take with a Grain of salt and use caution when posting.

    That is why I asked the question and the reason I did not post the web address here. The site has some well known real estate agent bloggers on it, but not sure what benefits the site provides. Because these are blog posts, most do not have a direct link back to the author's site, only if a link is included in the post.

    If syndicating on any site would be useful, as long as it did not require a link from my side, is it worthwhile?
