Google not indexing subdomain
I have created a sub domain for my website....it contains related content to the main portion of my entire site. I have even managed to trade several (quality)links pointing to the home page of my subdomain. The thing is, it's been over a month now I can't seem to get any pages indexed for my subdomain - the only page I can get into google is my index page. The site has good link structure and contains no spammy techniques.
What gives? Does google not index subdomains anymore?
PS... The index page for my subdomain is hit by the google spider almost daily.....I have fresh tags show up every other day or so - it isn't like google's not seeing my website!!

Any advice?
Ummm... patience?
Seriously, it seems that Google is becoming lazier at indexing new pages. The same thing happened to me. A page I put online about 40 days ago has just appeared today! Just give them another week

My guess is that you don't have enough PR coming in to push it any deeper though once it's there it should grab your main level pages. Regardless it should be after your next deep crawl.

I think both comments are right...
if you got huge pr links pointing to new pages you are likely to be indexed faster... if not big G seems indeed be lazier to index new pages.

I'm sure big G indexes subdomain sites. My site is a niche article directory in the field of management. I have grouped the different management topics into more than 60 categories, e.g., Asset Management, Investment Management, etc. For each category, I created a sub-domain that contains all the articles in that category.
All my sub-domains are indexed in Google. Here's a better news--most of the sub-domains are on page 1 in Google for my main keywords, (e.g. asset management articles, investment management articles, workforce management articles, etc.)

chek out the links
Why don't you check out the links pointing to and out your subdomain.I don't think Google is not indexing subdomain.

Try and get some non-traded links coming into the new subdomain, preferably with higher PR. You should see dramatic results if you get good ones, and G will index the site more throughly.
