If'n ya ain't blogging, ya be moving backwards

Here's a fine article on how to optimize your blog for directing traffic to your main real estate site.

Whether it’s a corporate blog, a news-type blog, or even a personal blog, optimizing your blog for the search engines is a must. There are some simple changes that you can make to WordPress and Moveable Type that will make your blog more search engine friendly and make the search engines beg for more (more post and content, that is!).Optimizing a blog is just like optimizing any other website. The content and pages (posts) must be unique, they must be search engine friendly, and it needs links from other websites.

Number one rule that I Ihave learned is to make the post title precise and factual rather than catchy and tabloid-like. Its boring, but it works.

I'd say that this depends on the type of message you are trying to deliver on your blog...

I agree, it's simple keyword optimization.

Using blogs you can surely pull traffic towards your website, but if your business relates to stock market business, and you recieve clicks from 50,000 kids aged in between 5-10, you will clearly understand my point.

Having blogs related to topics unrelated to your business arena can surely give you clicks, but those clicks will not help your business. Though you can use Google adsense, and can get sponsered by BIG clients if your blog is really a traffic puller. Otherwise It will be like holding a glass of water in a vast ocean.
