Question
Hi,
I'm a Webdesigner.
This is my first time I have to deal with advanced SEO.
My client trains people in Tai Chi and Qi Gong and sells licenses to trainers she trained.
Included in the license is a website (good for me - I'm selling them).
Her pagerank is pretty good.
So my idea was to use a subdomain for every trainer with an own webpage so the good ranking from the main domain will apply to the subdomain.
Will this work or is it better to get a new domain for every trainer?
Answer
Domain advantage will not be passed on to the subdomain. Google will treat the subdomain as a different website.
If you want to pass site juice to the trainer pages, then set it up as normal pages, like:
domainname.com/trainername
domainname.com/trainername
Buying new sites for all trainers will not pass domain juice. I hope this helps. In case of further help with SEO, email me at varun@upreports.com
