Restarting SEO when you move to different state
-
Hi every one, I have been working on my local citations but I have a blog which has been up for 4 years and has about 500 blog posts but I was living in NJ before and there is loads of stuff from jersey and also I have a lot of errors which is way too much to go back and fix like thousands since I am a photographer and loads of images. Would I be better off starting a new blog in my new SC region?
my blog is feuzablogs.com and my main website is feuzareis.com so I thought of just doing a www.feuzareis.com/blog
is it too much google juice to miss out on? is changing locations worth keeping blogging at this previous blog or should I just leave it up and start a new one which will be focused on new location?
thanks

Thanks Miriam, well I do have 6 weddings there this year and the commute with kids is not so fun as I thought it would be so more of a hassle and really need business here for now. And the errors are years of errors before I did not know any better and like in the thousands, I don't see a way to bulk fix errors and thus why I considered new one, I was just not sure if I just left old one up and started fresh but then how long to start getting some page rank and authority ya know. decisions decisions.

Hi Feuza,
I like the idea of starting your new on-site blog at feuzareis.com/blog to begin showcasing your work in SC, and if handled properly, 301 re-directing the old blog to the new one might be a good idea, but if there is any chance that the old blog might still earn you business (for instance, if you would be willing to travel to NJ for great jobs), then it may well be worth it to fix those errors and continue to maintain that blog.

So do a redirect for www.feuzablogs.com to www.feuzareis.com/blog, yes I do have PR and DA. thanks.

Hello, since you have put 4 years into this site, I believe you should not just abandon it. Instead, set up your new blog or site which will be optimized for your new location. When your site is live, setup a 301 redirect from the original domain (s) to the new domain. This will forward some of the link juice to your new website. Even though the target keywords will have changed, you can benefit from the Page Rank, Domain Authority, etc...

My Question About SEO
I'm working on a new website and attempting to make it as efficient as possible. I've put it through a few scanners and have a few concerns. Is it true that having long titles is beneficial? My contact page, for example, is just titled contact, while my FAQ page is simply titled commonly asked questions. What about meta descriptions for each page? Do they still serve a purpose nowadays? Because my site title is a graphic header, having a big text title doesn't really suit with the style, the H1 tag is missing on a few pages. Is there any way to get around this?

SEO for international bloggers
Hi I'm brand new to SEO stuff, and I'm trying to monetize my blog. I have a Q from you about optimizing my blog for an international audience. So I thought where is better to ask my question 🙂 My q is: Does the country that you are living in and publishing your post affect your SEO if you blog in English? For instance, if I live in turkey, but I publish my whole posts in English, will Google hesitate to show my content to an English audience? In other words, Does the publishing source country make it harder to contest with native English bloggers for google's page 1? Thanks in advance for your attention

Second Blog on the Same Site? Best SEO Practice
I would like to start up another blog which has more of a "technical" topic coverage vs my regular blog, which appeals more to non-techie business folks. If the goal is to drive traffic ultimately to the main site, should I do this second blog on a different domain, a subdomain, or try to incorporate it as a separate-but-equal blog on the same domain as the currrent one? What would you do?
