I have a new wordpress multisite setup.

Main language Italian and 2 subdomains using en and de for english and german.

There is no auto translation plugins being used.

The wordpress theme being used is by Studiopress.com and have SEO built in.

I am a little confused as which domains to use in Webmasters Tools.

If I use the subdomains (en and de) which have the seo setup, then google will index and show the en.example.it wont know about the mapped domains or display them.

If I use the mapped domains then won't google not see the seo for the subdomains.

I am muddled with this.

What do??
