When a blog uses a child domain name or subdirectory

First look at the difference between a subdomain and a subdirectory:

&http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/37954.html ">NBSP; Blog.mydomain.com (mydomain.com subdomain)

· Mydomain.com/blog (subdirectory/folder of mydomain.com)

You can consider subdirectories as labels that describe a page or group of pages on a site, and subdomains are separate sites. With subdirectories, you can use more content to enrich your site or blog, and with subdomains you can effectively "start from scratch."

The author is usually more inclined to use subdirectories to more convenient operation content, sub domain is used to separate completely different content. Google uses subdomains to differentiate between different products, such as news.google.com and maps.google.com.

The benefits of subdirectories for blogs:

1. Organization. Subdirectories are useful when you want to organize content into meaningful, descriptive URLs. If you want to add content to your site and directory with a meaningful, logical approach, a subdirectory is a good choice to make your URLs path more searchable.

2. Keep position unchanged. For relatively small sites, maintaining the position of the content will help to establish the authority of the site, if it is a blog, it will help through any obstruction and access to "link 2.4bn" (link weight, Google's judgment of the weight of the site is an important factor).

3, continuously enhance the ability. As the ability increases, authority and credibility increase, which makes it easier for the site to quickly increase the ranking of new entries. Any new content can be effectively created and organized in subfolders.

4. Link bait. When using the content of the blog post can be used as a link bait, on the main domain name, will be beneficial to the entire site, gained a certain influence, and then through the site structure of the cross link technology to other pages.

5. Easy to manage. For people with less technical experience, subdirectories are easier to administer than subdomains.

Summary: If you want to build a strong and capable site, then you can choose subfolders; If you are building a brand new site, then the preferred subdomain.
