I got a multilanguage website.
I will have a lot of subdomain names, something like this: mysubdomain1.mysite.com, mysubdmoain2.mysite.com, mysubdomain3.mysite.com. Each one needs to be a multilanguage website, but for SEO reasons, which is the best/simple/clear method to define a subdomain/domain structure?
en = english version
1) en.mysubdomain1.mysite.com
2) mysubdomain1.mysite.com/en
3) mysite.com/mysubdomain/en
4) en.mysite.com/mysubdomain
5) mysubdomain.mysite.com/?hl=en
pt = portuguese version
1) pt.mysubdomain1.mysite.com
2) mysubdomain1.mysite.com/pt
3) mysite.com/mysubdomain/pt
4) pt.mysite.com/mysubdomain
5) mysubdomain.mysite.com/?hl=pt
