How should I use my domain name with website and blog?

[narakeni]

I have mydomain.info which I want to use for my website.

I also want to have a blog with it.

Which is better, mydomain.info/myblog/ or myblog.mydomain.info ?

Yes... I am a noob.

I would not believe that it matters. Having read through several sites on SEO, either should work. FYI, I have my blog set up as mysite.com/content/ and that seems to work fine.

If y0ou set up myblog.mydomain.info then the blog will also be able to be found using mydomain.info/myblog/ anyway. Most people will just follow the links so which you code will not matter. Which one you advertise will depend on which you think will be easier for visitors to remember. The sub-domain will be easier to remember as a stand alone address. The folder version will help associate it better with the rest of your site.

Thanks guys for the observations.

@redsox9, I visited your signature link, and it has great content. I am guessing that you 'blog' fresh content to it regularly. That is something I would like to do with my site later on down the track.

@felgall, You are right about visitors linking to the site or blog. They are unlikely to notice the difference.

I want to advertise both independently (much later on), and was a bit worried that the live zesty blog would be smothered in the content rich site. (zesty and rich, I have a long way to go!)

Anyway last night I moved wordpress to a subdomain. More for the challenge I think. But I think I can concentrate my efforts on each in turn, and hopefully achieve bookmark status for the site, and send plenty of feeds from the blog.
