MrRichard 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2010 I have a tech blog and I wanted to create a game blog with the same domain. Can I use the same domain (i.e. ublogged.co.cc/games) for SEO purposes, or do I have to use a subdomain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quatrux 4 Report post Posted November 16, 2010 It depends on the search engine, but usually it's better to stick to one way and not use both at the same time or at least use a redirect at htaccess level.Here is a list of resources on the subject for your question:http://theseoblogger.com/seo-blogs/subdomafor-a-seo-blog/http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/So basically it depends on the subject of your sites, if it has some relevance with your main top level domain site, you can create a subdirectory, if it's a different site it seems it's better to use a subdomain.

Thanks for the reply Quatrux, and the link to that first post. I've decided to try out a subdomain and links between each site because the content is unrelated.

grim reaper1666 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2010 well if you use a sub domain then you could most likely use the same domain but with games in place of the www which is how blog hosters work. so why not do it like that for yours simples. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
