URL name vs indexing

Question

Hi all,

i found out that google will only index the top level URL from my site but i have a blog in my site as well that i want it to be listed in blog directories.

so my question is:

since i name the blog under www.mydomain.com/blog.html it is certain that google will only take www.mydomain.com in to consideartion.

so what if i name my blog such a way: www.blog.mydomain.com? would this be consider as another entity? if so how do i name it such way?

P/s: My blog and Site both has different content of the same topic and i want them to be listed in both web and blog directories.

Big thank in advance

You can use the Canoical Meta tag: http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/02/specify-your-canonical.html

For example: on your blog (in both places), add the meta tag: <link rel="canonical" href="http://blog.example.com/" />

It applies for static, and dynamic pages.
