Subdirectory By The IMC Team | Posted February 23rd, 2009
A subdirectory refers to a file on your website, shown in your website URL after the slash symbol (/). Let’s say your website sells two types of DVDs: classic horror and foreign. These two categories could be broken up by subdirectories like so:
- www.hard-to-find-dvds.com/classic-horror
- www.hard-to-find-dvds.com/foreign
Both “classic-horror” and “foreign” are subdirectories on your site.
It’s a good idea to use keywords as your folder or file names for these subdirectories because they’re good for search engine rankings and for showing your visitors what your site’s all about.
A subdirectory is different from a subdomain, which shows up at the beginning of your domain name like so: classic-horror.hard-to-find-dvds.com. Subdirectories are easier to edit and move around than subdomains!
