						I am trying to help a friend with their website.  One of the difficulties is that they offer about 4 or 5 services that are separate from each other.  I was thinking about splitting it somehow, because I see this as diluting the content the a spyder and a visitor would see, but then I thought about sub-domains.  Would it be a good or bad idea to put the actual pages of the services on a sub-domain with the service specific word as the name of the sub-domain?
I remember someone saying that sub-domains could work for you in that sense with engines, any ideas here?
					
				 
				
						
														
					
												give me some time so I can review web stats and see of the spyders are reading the subdomains
											
					
				 
																									
						
														
					
												Most search engines work on a per-page basis. So "dillution" is only really a concern for text on one page.
Using the word in the subdomain will help SEO.
											
					
				 
																									
						
														
					
												I bet I could a thing or 2 from you about search engines - I'm not so successful with what.
