If I Switch Primary Domain to Secondary Will I lose Rankings? Dumb question here, but I have a DA 13 domain on Semrush getting about 500-600 monthly organic visitors. We're switching business names so I'm wondering if I put our new domain as primary and the current as secondary if we'll lose all our rankings or if the redirect will cause our rankings to be unchanged.

Do Local City Names Still Matter in Domain Names? I remember years ago this was a practice that was recommended so that if someone searched "city name" + "type of business" you'd come up in results. So if you type in "portrait photographers" in "culver city" you would have better chances of coming up top. Is this still the case? Also, if you have an Instagram account that you use for your business, I'm also interested in hearing if it works for that. Thank you. 2 0 replies

Impact of a backlink from Apple to a brand new website? I’m launching my online (cybersecurity) business soon and I’ve recently gotten the opportunity to get a backlink to my business’ site from the Apple website (support.apple.com). How much of an impact will this have on my brand new website’s SEO? I don’t really know much about backlinks other than what they are and that they positively affect SEO. As Apple has a massively popular website does this mean this will be really good for my SEO? or does 1 link not really make much of a difference? Thanks :)... 5 0 replies
Domain Migration For Low Traffic Site I have a question for all of the SEO experts. I have a WordPress site and I'm looking to migrate a new name to the site. It was a movie/film news & reviews type site, and I'm going to be changing the content I write to be all about movies that have been created from scripts from the Annual Blacklist Scripts. My site was pretty new already, I had only started writing in August. Is it better to just delete every post I had once I have my domain... 1 0 replies
Multi-location business helps or hurts SEO? I am prepping for marketing in the new year and something I'm seeing a lot is related to registering my business in multiple cities, because we have locations in 3 cities across the U.S. Currently, we only have one physical/public setting office, and that is the only place our website and GBP targets. However, I'm not sure how adding the other 2 cities will affect my SEO? Hoping this will help get more eyes on my website due to having more local traffic options for each city we're located... 4 0 replies

Missing Site Icon in SERPs Has anyone experienced the sudden loss of their website icon in the Google search results? One of my clients’ sites has suddenly reverted to a default grey globe icon. My developer is stumped. Nothing changed on the website and I can still see the icon image linked. It’s an Oxygen/Wordpress site. The icon is missing in all browsers/for all pages indexed. I’ve also noticed that the site title has changed to a much shorter version of our title for every page I’ve checked. It used to be 65 characters... 4 0 replies
Keyword Cannibilsation issues My site appears to be suffering from keyword cannibalization because our main keyword is part of our company name. Let's call the site [*thefoodhamperhamper.com*](http://thefoodhamperhamper.com), with 'Food Hampers' as our main keyphrase. Upon reviewing the source code, I noticed that every page on the site contains 26 instances of the term 'Food Hampers,' while the homepage alone has 56 instances. I want the homepage to be optimized for this keyphrase and prevent other pages from competing for it. However, after two months, Google Search Console shows that traffic is still... 5 0 replies
Advise and Input on Website SEO Hello, My wife and I started a new business in which we are hoping to scatter loved one's ashes in beautiful places across the U.S including National Parks.

Are pillar pages still an effective strategy? I recently took over our marketing efforts at a small business and don't have a ton of experience in SEO. Prior to me taking over the team we outsourced a lot of content creation via blog with some success for a company of our size. I'm looking into creating pillar pages seeing as we have a ton of existing material to link to - is this still seen as an effective strategy or would I be better off writing a bunch more blogs? 3 0 replies
