There are some standards (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.branchmerge.maint.html) that people tend to adhere to, but the structure of your repositories is not the most important factor. The processes on how your developers use the repositories is. As long as you have a solid process that everyone adheres to, and it works for your layout, then there's nothing wrong with it.
I create a single respository for every project, but I have also seen some companies that create more global respositories, like you do, that hold a certain collection of projects (intranet, internet, flash, etc). Also, as the article I linked explains, if you believe that your current system isn't flexible, or is causing problems, rearranging the respository structure is very easy.
