Thanks Ruben. Their blog is already set up on a subdomain. For my own site though I have our blog on WP and use the exact plugins you mentioned.

Does a blog on a subdomain pass on SEO credit to the main domain?posted in Industry News
When setting up a Hubspot blog you are asked to create a subdomain such as blog.website.com in order to have the blog hosted there.
Two questions:
1. Does a blog on a subdomain pass on SEO credit to the main domain?
My understanding is that a subdomain is treated like a unique site but I'm not finding current articles to confirm this is still true.2. If it does not pass on credit to the main domain and the subdomain is only building "SEO love" for itself but your posts are getting found and driving conversions... from a marketing perspective does this non-transfer of SEO credit really matter? Meaning if blog.website.com is linked to the navigation on website.com, your site has quality content, has relevant calls to action, and you are lead nurturing like a good marketer... does the passing of SEO credit matter if your posts are what's getting found and filling the top of the funnel?
Thank you in advance,
Christine
