#2Thanks, could anyone provide the same info for Wordpress blogs?
Re: Your Tumblr is broken. Fix it.
#3Hosting your blog on blog.startup.com is also broken, because you derive no SEO benefit from it.
It's more likely that you drive traffic from SEO than from Tumblr 'reblogs'.
Hence, you shouldn't even use tumblr for your main corporate blog.

#4Kirill Zubovsky - maybe more people would listen to and act on your sage UX advice if you didn't come across as such an entitled dick when you're giving it.

#5I'm not sure I agree with this. People expect to be returned to the index of that website/subdomain when clicking the site logo. If you want to give blog reader easy access to your main website, do that at the end of all posts or with some sort of accented nav item.

I'm not sure most people really understand the difference between "something.startup.com" and "startup.com", especially when the logo is the same on both.
If I click the logo of the startup, I expect to be taken to the landing page for said startup.

#9I clicked on the author's face and name and it took me to a Medium page. Luckily, I can see he's the founder of a twitter profile called "Scoutzie" which clears-up what his business is. /sarcasm

This is completely false. SEO benefit to subdomains absolutely applies to the root domain. Google's algorithm has changed a bit since 2005.
