      Hiya all

      I am building a site for the expansion of a facebook fan page that will be sending a fair bit of traffic to the site. One feature of the site is a forum plus a store and i have to make the dissuasion on if i should have the forum and store on the main domain or on separate subdomains for each.

      domain.com

      forum.domain.com

      store.domain.com

      So my question is would it be better to keep all of these elements on the main domain or each on a separate sub domains?

      Will

        Hi Will,

        I would be more inclined to put them on their own sub domains.

        All the best 🙂
