Hi,

I've just created a subdomain and it's not being found by the SE.

I've tried 2 ways - via WHM, and cPanel.

I've done this many times before so I'm sure I'm doing it right (couldn't be simpler in cPanel anyway).

Anyone have any ideas??

Many thanks

I assume you haven't a robots.txt sitting above it keeping it hidden?

, I'm saying subdirectories and subdomains can each be used to market web content differently, subdirectories describe what individual pages are about and subdomains describe what individual sites are about (Google treats subdomains as separate sites while subdirectories are just part of the same site). You can also say that subdirectories are a more granular way of marketing content via a search engine while subdomains are a more general method. Either way, search marketers can and should be using both, not arguing if one is simply better than the other.
