Hi everyone, I have owned a domain for a little more than a year. I had created a few WordPress blogs and put them all in subdirectories. That was 5 months ago. I had not decided what to do with the domain itself. Specifically, I wanted a membership site, but didn't know what script to use. A few weeks ago, a good friend of mine at APSense, Gilberto Cintron, told me I would get a better ranking for my domain if I actually put content at the root. Last week, I abandoned the blog that was destined to become my main blog in the future. It was in a "blog" directory. I had not posted much of anything in it. I created a new WordPress blog at the root. My main online business will be centered there. Last week, just before I created the new blog, I had an Alexa ranking of around 1,900,000 for my domain. I didn't check the number in the US. I had no data for sites linking in. Well, I just checked : ranking is around 1,465,000, in US it is around 410,000. Sites linking in : 5 !!! ![]() By the way, I just added the free comluv plug-in. It adds backlinks back and forth between my blog and people who write comments and who also have the plug-in. Is this a good idea ? Also, I think I will buy the Optimize Press Theme, I want a good tool for creating splash and squeeze pages. I saw very positive reviews here. |

Glad to help Philippe. If you are still looking into setting up a membership site there are several scripts, and plugins around. I use a plugin to run an affiliate program if you are interested PM me. ~ Gil |

Thanks for the heads up on comluv. I'll have to look into it. Like you I have a blog in the root of my domain, that has had regular posts added and has had a big jump in Alexa over 3 months. From 1.1 million to 337,000. I believe it also benefits from having other blogs on subdomains. Neville |
