Sub Folders or directories would be better?
If you are starting up your website with several focus areas or specialties. What would be a good way for you to start off on your site architecture? As in would a sub folder be a better choice or a directory ? Personally, if your website is new and requires a fair bit of SEO, I would prefer using directories. This concept would help Google and other engines look at the site as a place where there are more pages (bigger website).
The problems with sub domains, would be the search engines look at them as different websites. This makes your websites’ content rather separated then consolidated. Also it seems that the SERP for these sub-domains don’t turn up too well on most search terms.
