Does anyone know how blogs and regular websites are arranged hierarchically in search engines? Let me give an example. I search for "Mickey Mouse" in blogsearch, it shows me a bunch of blogs with that content. I search for "Mickey Mouse" in websearch, it shows me regular websites AS WELL AS, potentially, some blogs. But, are ALL the blogs indexed on blog search indexed in the regular websearch as well? If not, what decides what gets included and what doesn't? A convoluted question, but I'm curious...might have to optimize a few blogs in the future.

blogs get attention as they are seen as a form of news or commentary so if on right topic get looked at often... also Google has a separate blog directory for news... do a news search and then look to left and see a blog option

im my opinion a blog is a website. that's why a website search will show you blogs as well.
