How will SEO be affected with subdomains that have different topics?

    I have one domain that I'd like to make sub-domains that focus on specific topics.

    The main domain is a blog itself that focuses on one niche. Then the sub-domains have own blogs that focus on the sub-domains' subjects. For example:

    mywebsitename.com (A personal blog)

    tvshows.mywebsitename.com (A blog about TV shows)

    computer.mywebsitename.com (A blog about computers)

    My question is whether that is acceptable and how will SEO be affected with such structure :confused:

    My webhosting service is limited with number of Addon domains so I have thought about doing the website this way.

    Please advice. Thank you!
    Or something like that

    I have success with this strategy locally.
    eg I have mycity.com with many subs like plumber.mycity.com, electrician.mycity.com etc.
    These are working well and all rank highly in local search.
