What is better subdirectory or folder?

[kenny724]

Hi, right now....i have my store set to www.midsouthcoin.com/midsouthcoinstore. However, is there any benefit to change it to a subdirectory like store.midsouthcoin.com as opposed to the longer name folder?

Ideally, the store should be in the root (top directory) of the site. I see you have a site there now, but you can add non-cart info to Zencart pretty easily, so I would suggest you make Zencart your whole site and move it to the root.

Failing that, I don't know of any advantage of a subdomain over a subdirectory. You could also change /midsouthcoinstore to just /store.
