Hi,

I’m talking about WordPress on an independent host, not on WordPress.com. Actually, on WordPress.com, I don’t even think it’s possible to have your blog in a subdirectory.

The reason it is considered better for the blog to be on a subdirectory is because you will get links to your main page and your blog page, so it’s better for PageRank. Also, if you decide to do more than just blog (like services, etc), you can use your main page for that.

In the tip saying not to install WP in the root, but to a subdirectory(i.e. /blog), are you speaking of WordPress on WordPress.com, or installing WordPress on an independent host server? Both?

And why; do you know the reason? Thanks,
