A subfolder, also known as a subdirectory, is a way of organizing the pages on your website. They can be thought of as a way to divide up information or products, depending on your business. Within a subfolder, there can be more subfolders stacked within, like nesting dolls! Subfolders can be great for your website and for SEO. Having clear landing pages for your subfolders is important to both the searcher and the crawler. They are also another way to earn more backlinks, contributing to a greater Domain Authority. A subfolder could be a blog, a product category, an Etsy store, and more!
