Moving Your Blog From Subdomain to Subfolder Can Double Your Traffic
Many case studies showed significant traffic increase just by moving the blog from subdomain to subfolder.
- The Google leak in May 2024 confirmed what SEO experts have long suspected - the algorithm treats subfolders differently and blogs on it receive better rankings and more traffic.
- One company saw an immediate 40% increase in traffic and 15% increase in leads after moving their blog from subdomain to subfolder - with no other changes.
PressProxy makes it easy to have your WordPress blog on a subfolder, regardless of your website platform - set up takes just a few minutes.

Our system guides you through the whole process. Depending on your experience level, you can be up and running in as little as a few minutes.
- 1 Host DNS at Cloudflare:

Enjoy improved SEO, well-known ease of use, and unmatched flexibility
WordPress is by far the most popular blogging platform and no site or store builder "blog" comes close to the versatility it offers.
Two key benefits with using WordPress for your blog:
- Improved SEO compared to platform blog systems: WordPress excels at SEO and is much more flexible than site builders.
- WordPress you know and love: everyone knows how to use WordPress and for good reason - it's extremely easy to use and flexible.
And if you already use WordPress, it's just a matter of a quick transfer.

- Which site builder platforms are supported?
-
PressProxy works with any site builder platform, as long as you're using Cloudflare DNS (or are willing to move). You need to provide the Cloudflare API key for us to manage the domain.
- Will my blog look the same as my website?
-
It can, with some minor theme customization to copy the CSS. We offer a basic design service which will take your site's design and transfer it to a blog on a standard blog structure (content area and sidebar).
You can also have a completely different design if you'd like, it's up to you. The blog is completely standalone and can be managed as any other WordPress site.
- Will SEO work correctly on the blog?
-
Yes. You log into and manage the blog from a subdomain but the posts load only on the subdirectory. A blog sitemap is built automatically that can be submitted to the Search Console. All URLs are correctly rewritten.
- I already have WordPress on a subdomain. Can I move it to PressProxy?
-
Yes. You will need to do a backup on your existing host and then restore the blog on our hosting.
