Who passed through here in the last 10 days may have noticed our new URL, which is http://www.skooterblog.com. Actually this URL already existed for a long time, and just redirected to the former that was http://www.skooterblog.com. Now all the old URLs are redirected to the new.

The change has two reasons, which follow:

1. The use of a unique subdomain for the blog is a trend that a few large portals such as AOL are already following. In their case, each section of the site has its unique subdomain. This is a rather controversial technique in SEO, as many people have abused it by creating several subdomains, which is not the case here. In addition, SEO professionals warn that the use of subdomains makes it difficult to pass pagerank between pages. The fact is that Google treats subdomains as different sites, and that's exactly what I was seeking, it is known that Google does not like a lot of directories and has punished some in the past. As Skooter is a directory and Submit Your Blog has little to do with it, ideally, be it in a subdirectory, preventing unjust punishments for the directory to affect you. And this has paid off, because the number of visits is now returning to their highest levels.
2. Once you have decided that we should use a subdomain, choose lacked http://www.skooterblog.com or http://www.skooterblog.com. Both already redirecting to the URL above. In favor of the second weighed the fact that he already had some links in the network. But the choice turned out to be the first precisely because of the termination. Us, because we know that Google gives priority to sites with TLD us by searching for sites in Brazil.

The downside of change is the new URL does not have PageRank, not that it matters, but may give a wrong impression to new visitors. Submit Your Blog Probably be able to at least a 2 again in the next update. The important thing is that the visitors are returning to the previous level and so the blog should be maintained.
