        Hi Tormar,

        Remember that googles treats subdomains as an URL, separare from the main domain. What I mean:

        acb.domain.com, domain.com and www.domain.com all three are different URLs for google, even more, are different web pages. So there isn't any specific optimization when it's about a subdomain.

        My advice: Optimize it as is it a separate site from the main domain.

        Hope it's helpful.

          Hi Tormar!

          I agree with Gaston—the subdomain will be seen as a separate domain, so you should really just optimize it as you would any other domain.

          Is there anything more specific you're looking for, here?
