Does Marketo include a blogging platform?

Or is there a recommended blogging platform to use?

Not exactly - but you could easily mimic blog functionality leveraging templates and the Marketo landing pages - then you can easily manage subscriptions, sharing, etc.

While not something typical like WordPress, it is quite capable. Probably worth doing a needs assessment on features/functions, how often you intend to post and who will be doing the work, etc. then make a call from there.

Our blog is on wordpress, and we send marketo emails to the subscribers which has part of the blog entry and a link to the blog.  The blog page has a marketo form to capture new subscribers.  It works for us.

Great, thanks Clinton. I couldn't find any tutorials on setting up a blog so I assumed it might need a different approach. 

Knowing this now, we'll probably set up our blog in our CMS and then hopefully integrate it with Marketo from there.
