Adding another domain to my VPS, would it effect SEO?
-
I set up my business site on a VPS and its working great. The site is doing well ranking for my keywords.
I have another domain name that I was going to host on the VPS also. The site will be in a completely new business and there will be no overlapping keywords at all. A separate business altogether.
Can someone tell me if adding another site to the VPS I have cause any SEO issues as the last thing I want to do is negatively effect my main business site
Thanks in advance

John, yes, nothing to worry about it at all. As long as you are not interlinking the websites, it's just an IP address hosting multiple websites.
You might want to consider adding a new IP (which would also be required if you will be installing a SSL certificate for this new website). A new IP is not required at all, but I usually like to if I have the option.

No there is no SEO issues with adding another domain to the same IP.
A lot of shared hosting is hosted on one server from 1 domain to thousands domain. It will not effect SEO at all.

Changing business name from keyword to brand name, what are the effects on SEO?
I think it's best to give you an example to illustrate what I'm asking here. Current Brand Name: Keyword Driven Brand Name (keyworddrivenbrandname.com) New brand Name: KDBN (kdbn.com) What will the effects of this change be. I'm slightly worried that we have lots of links with the anchor text "Keyword Driven Brand Name" and we rank very well for terms like "Keyword Driven" and "Brand Name". I guess what I'm asking is, do we need to go and change all those anchors to KDBN and will this upset our search rankings. Or do we leave the existing anchors? But will Google see this as over-optimised anchor text and penalise our website? Decisions decisions! Also, should we leave the old brand name in our title tags, at least for the transitional period, i.e. KDBN | Targeted Keyword | Keyword Driven Brand Name Any help with this would be really appreciated, Many thanks

NAP - effect of adding a word to the name of businesss
Hello, I'm faced with a decision which requires some feedback from experts like you. My client has a business which has inconsistent citation submissions out the ying yang. For examples sake their business is called "brand all types body repair", where "brand" is the parent company who owns my client's company, and "all types body repair" is my client's company. In most of their existing citations the phone number and address are all consistent, but some citations contain the name "brand all types body repair", and others just "all types body repair". The name used on their website's NAP is "all types body repair"; however the name used on the larger directories like the BBB and yellow pages is "brand all types body repair". Also since they are registered in the BBB as this, "brand all types body repair" is their legal business name. Since they are registered in the BBB as "brand all types body repair" my thoughts are to ensure every citation uses this as the name. Three questions come out of this: I'm not really changing the name, only adding a brand word in front of the existing name. Will this have less of an effect than changing the name completely? If I change the name on their website from "all types body repair" to "brand all types body repair", will that have a negative affect on search rankings if some of the citations are already using "brand all types body repair"? What would you do about the name issue?

Is it safe to redirect our .nl (netherlands) domain that we have just purchased to our .com domain?
Hi all! We've recently developed a German version of our website with German translation and now we have just purchased a .nl domain, but with this one, we want all of the copy to remain in English. Is it ok to redirect our .nl domain to our current .com website or will this give us bad SEO points? Thank you!
