Subdomains and link juice

[SRichmond]

My site recently received two separate links from the same domain, but different subdomains. Will my site receive "full" link juice from each link, or do they water each other down?

Thanks!

Hmm, interesting. I had a feeling it was a kind of "yes and no" answer from similar questions I saw on other sites. Thanks for the help, everyone!

Google reads a subdomain as a separate site from the domain or another subdomain. That said, Google also realizes when sites are from the same network, which is how they penalized private link networks. It will certainly improve your authority, but it's unknown how much the link will be discounted due to the connection between the two sites. (That is, after all, Google's proprietary knowledge and secrets about how they do their algo. We can only make educated guesses.)

What is in the “mind” of google algorithm no one knows. But... If they dilute juice for links from the same ip, I guess they don't value links from subdomains of the same root domain as much as links from different domains, which is probably why MOZ and everyone else always value “root domain” links.
