I heard from discussions on SEOMoz blog that hosting on Tumblr doesn't give your domain the "SEO juice", but I don't actually know what that means. Perhaps your domain isn't marked as valuable when your popular posts are not hosted on your primary site. However, when your posts do get popular, they drive just as much traffic to your blog. They way I see it, it's your job to convert them over to the site itself. The "juice" value aside, Tumblr is so fast to setup that it was definitely worth it for us.

If the blog is under foo.com/blog, OTOH, all the link juice goes to the same domain.
