listing subdomains

Can i list subdomains in multiple cats. For example http://travel.mydomain.com in a travel cat. and have my root domain http://mydomain.com in a different cat?

Thanks alot.

http://mydomain.com is already listed in http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Domain_Names/M/ and http://travel.mydomain.com/ appears to be available for sale. If you bought the latter name it would be considered for listing based on whatever content you chose to put there.

If by chance those aren't the domains you're asking about, please be more specific. The only general answer we could give would be "maybe", since it depends on too many factors.

If you're speaking generally... We'll list the base url in the most appropriate category according to the full content (subdomains included) of the site.

A subdomain is considered in the same way as a deeplink in the guidelines. It's all subsections of the overall site content and the precise structure of the URL is unimportant.

If the deeplink or subdomain contains content on a different theme from the root URL then it might be considered for listing in a different category. Compare www.bbc.co.uk in Arts/Television/Networks and news.bbc.co.uk in News. However, listed deeplinks (and subdomains) are the exception rather than the rule.

Deeplinks and subdomains are relatively more common in informational categories, pretty uncommon in commercial categories.

Hope that helps. <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />
