caryl - Those sub domains concern me. How are you linking those to the main pages? Is the content the same? Would Google see this as duplicate/similar content since sub domains [ I believe ] are treated as seperate domains. fyi - i doubt that it's the navigation IMO

Whitey,

IF this has anything to do with duplicate content - then it could only be due to the fact that Google is storing my site navigation menu as text on my pages ahead of the actual content.

My main site is an SEO/webmaster site - the subdomains are "libraries" with different topics all pertaining to website development and marketing. BELIEVE ME - there is not any duplication of title, description, or content between any of them.

Origianlly, there was some meta tag duplication on each of the subdomains but that was all taken care of last August.

My main site is 6 years old. The subdomains are a year old.
