Has anyone successfully merged their subdomain for LPs to their parent domain for SEO purposes?

Hi all,

Like many of you, we run all of our demand generation pages through Marketo and we are losing potential SEO value by doing so.

Has anyone successfully done something like a reverse proxy pass or something similar to retain their value for SEO?

Let me know what you think!

If it's that important, you can use form embed to move pages to your main site.

Hey Josh,

We've done this in the past, but we lose the ability to use progressive profiling, as well as auto-fill, etc.

This could be a good interim option (and run PPC pages through MKTO non-indexed) until we figure it out.

ProgPro and AutoFill both work on embedded forms.  It's only PreFill that does not. Common misconception/misnomer.

Even the pre-fill can be implemented. We have done more than few website integration for Wordpress, Drupal, Sitecore with Marketo,     where we can have the form pre-filled along with progressive profiling if someone wants to embed a Marketo form OR use a standard CMS form.

And I'm sure every one of them has a DoS vulnerability.

The question has never been whether it can be done, it's whether it can be done in a way befitting an enterprise environment.
