Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks Paul. I do agree with a lot of what you have said, however, interestingly enough we created a blog on a separate domain (not even sub-domain, but completely separate) for various reasons late last year - and it already has a PR of 2 (which surprised me).

But we are going to go with the sub-directory

Thanks Nakul and Daniel.

This was my line of thinking, however I do know that some large blogs use it on a subdomain and although you will not get the SEO value from incoming links to the blog, it is viewed as a separate site so therefore links from the blog to the actual domain would be viewed as external rather than internal links (am I correct in saying this)?

But I think I will go with the subdirectory.

Hi,

I am looking to incorporate a blog that currently sits on another domain into my site. I am not sure whether to do this as part of my domain or as a sub-domain e.g.

mydomain.com.au/blog

blog.mydomain.com.au

I can see the benefits from an SEO perspective for both but just wanted some advice on the best way to go.
