  1. Jennifer, again, the timing is incredible. I had just loaded WordPress to an existing site trying to refurbish it, was working on the bugs of integrating it, when I found your information before it was announced! Now I have a checklist and don’t have to recreate the wheel. Would definitely be interested in promoting this information. Here is a question (with more to follow). How will subdomains work with these minisites. I know you’ve blogged about subdomains, just wonder if you would use them yourself with this particular model.
    Thanks again,
    Nancy

  2. Hi Nancy =)

    Personally, I have not used subdomains on my own niche sites. I buy a domain name – install wordpress, fill it with content, and let’r rip =)

    However, I imagine that sub-domains will work fine.

    Keep this in mind – Google indexes and ranks web PAGES, not web SITES. Also, the over-all domain name is not as important as the file/sub-domain name seo-wise.

    Think Squidoo.com, HubPages.com, or EzineArticles.com – both sites have tons of individual pages that rank for many individual phrases. As does this blog right here….. PotPieGirl isn’t exactly a keyword…haha! Or, at least it didn’t used to be a keyword.

    The key is optimizing and promoting each individual web page – regardless of what the site name is.

    If anyone is using sub-domains – speak up. We’d love to hear.

    Thanks for reading!

    Jennifer
