 * Howdy,
 * Do you want all sites on the multisite to contribute to the “Link Juice” of the
   same site / entity? (I know, that is worded weird.)
 * Like, if you are having a bunch of sites all about tropical fish, and maybe you’d
   like for all those different sites people maintain to all sort of “count” towards
   search engines feeling your multisite is a good authority on tropical fish.
 * Anyway, you would want subfolder, instead of subdomain.
 * Take care,
    Paul

 * *psst* Google stopped caring about that last year or so.
 * On a small (normal sized) site, subdomain is the same as subfolder.
 * So whatever you like 🙂

 * Make folders like for blog make it yourdomain.dom/blog and use blog page template
   for this folder..
 * No need to install multiple subdomains, Google like small single domain sites
   better organised with navigation and clean layout

 * submitshop – That’s not Multisite. This is the Mutlsite section. We don’t make
   folders, we use virtual ones and let WP parse it 🙂

 * Google does. You can look ’em up if you want, but it was … October 2010 or so
   that all that came down.
