I want to install myWebsite.com - which runs a wordpress-blog. Then another Team blog at mysite.com/team-blog and also mysite.com/osqa to have OSQA(OSQA is a forum software) installed. I tried a lot playing with .htaccess from the past 2 days. But No success! AFAIK this can be achieved with .htaccess redirects. Another question - Is it a good idea to install - osqa in mysite.com/osqa or have a seperated sub-domain like - osqa.mysite.com I read some old articles saying - having sub-domains is NOT good for SEO and Page-ranks. Is this true even today? And So only I decided to go with folders for each and not creating sub-domains. AFAIK, Search Engines treat sub-domains as a totally different domain without carrying much Pagerank effects to the domain Parent site. Please help, all help highly highly appreciated. |

Typically this would be done using a separate URL Path for each application, all one one website record. In other words, you would have three applications under Generally with respect to SEO you are correct; it's better to have everything under a single domain. However, some applications do not work nicely under a sub-URL Path, and using thanks Ryans, I suppose this creates .htacess files in each folder automatically. Adding additional apps to a site will not create .htaccess files - the web server configuration happens on the front-end. managed by us. Your apps will still use whatever .htaccess files you've created for them. |
