RE: Moz's official stance on Subdomain vs Subfolder - does it need updating?
hi,
I saw that MOZ is treating equaly the Domain Authority score for root domain and subdomains. Is it entirely truth? So far you were desciribing the change for the content (blog, forum), but how the situation is different when the case is about localization?
I was compering two types of site localization. One under uk.domain.com and the other at domain.co.uk. In MOZ the subdomain uk.domain.com and domain.com have the same value for the Domain Authority. And whenever compared domain.com to local domains (co.uk, de, fr) their DA is always lower. Is it then MOZ algorithm assumption or is there higher value to put localizations under subdomain? It would be first time I hear that subdomain has higher authority than local domain.
