How subdirectories affect seo
- SEO |
Hi warriors...
I'd like to ask how subdirectories can affect seo in terms of page rank and so on, esp if the subdirectories are of different topics. Can a subdirectory rank on its own??
Another question that comes to mind is my hosting provider - hostgator. I got the baby package for a start because it says it can have multiple domains. Ok...so i thought i can have multiple sites with multiple domains. Then when i added a 2nd domain...this is what i discovered.
For example my 1st domain is called 1stdomain-dot-com. Then my 2nd domain is 2nddomain-dot-com. The first domain files are placed in the root folder and cpanel is accessed thru the 1stdomain.
Then when the 2nd domain is added, it adds a directory in the root folder of 1stdomain. So effectively, the 2nd domain can be accessed thru 1stdomain-dot-com/wwwdot2nddomaindotcom while the site can still be displayed when wwwdot2nddomaindotcom. is typed in. So i just want to understand better... is this some kind of url redirect?? Will my 2nd domain suffer in any way in terms of page rank/seo? Will google robots see my 2nd domain as a subdirectory?
Anybody with hostgator experience the same issue? What about their reseller hosting plan...does this happen also, or does each individual domain has its own ip address??
Pls advice. thanks
