Submit root or sub-folder link for SEO?

My blog is under a sub-folder (www.michaelaulia.com/blogs) and not on the root.

Should I submit the /blogs or the root whenever I want to market my blog? (to online directories, forum signatures, comments, etc)
This leads to another question, if all quality backlinks link to /blogs/, will my root domain gets the link juice from it (pagerank)?

 

Yeah as per me you should submit the /blog if you want to market your blog and your root domain will get link juice.

 

Ah I see.. I thought it's the other way around (the ranks on your root domain will "flow down" to the sub folders)

 

agree with Ridhdhi

 

I would suggest doing the both

 

any will be fine .. as long as the site is good

 

Cheers This makes me want to open another blog, but putting it on another sub-folder lol (rather than using a new domain name). Heard Google likes sites with lots of contents underneath

 

Yeah agree,

Google love sites with unique and informative content.This will help in improving your rankings also.
Go ahead

 

Thanks guys. Well the next blog is totally on a different niche (Technology vs Christianity), so I doubt that it will contribute to the rankings lol

 

no problem there michael. Just start a new domain and continue to write content on both blogs

I too would mix it up. If you are trying to get both page's ranked well then use both root and /blog when building your backlinks.
