I have a question regarding the use of subdomains that I could not find any reference to in the FAQ or guidelines.
My company has two online products, each with completely distinct and unique content. They are in the areas of Online Skill-based Gaming (http://games.beacontender.com) and Fantasy Sports Stats Services (http://mystats.beacontender.com).
My question then is, would submission of these two websites, in entirely different categories relating to their content, be acceptable? Or would it be better to purchase additional domains and host them separately?
This could get a little more complicated, as I have an overall corporate website (http://www.beacontender.com) which right now just contains links to the above two. This is entirely similar to the way in which Yahoo makes use of a single domain to host several distinct services (http://www.yahoo.com, http://sports.yahoo.com, http://mail.yahoo.com, etc). In fact, as it turns out, there are several entries within the ODP for these Yahoo websites.
My corporate site is already listed in the ODP. However, if it will cause problems with your submission guidelines, I would prefer to just remove it altogether and submit each of the above two websites seperately.
Ultimately, since both products are unique, I think they are both useful to the online community.
Thank you in advance,
