Best way to rebrand my photography business

I operate a photography business that has risen to #2 in organic serp in my local niche (headshot photography) despite weak branding. My brand has nothing to do with photography and I was just using it until I could rebrand. I have bought detroitphotography dot com and want to rebrand as "Detroit Photography." Even as I use this prestigious domain for my general branding, I want to keep my primary target keyword as "Detroit headshots photography." I have also purchased detroitheadshotphotography dot com and am currently planning to 301 it to detroitphotography.com.

90% of my business comes from google ads for ads related to headshot photography. I think the primary benefit of the rebrand will be to make the ads seem more authoritative to prospective clients by coming from a more prestigious domain.

My long-term plan is to transition my business from being reliant on ads to organic referrals, and to constantly move those referrals up-market to high-end branding and portraiture by raising prices. In that regard, "headshots" is useful as like training wheels for my business, in that most of my clients think they want headshots but actually want high-end business portraits.

Here's my general plan of action:

  1. 301 my current domain roketaindustries dot com to detroitphotography dot com, keeping the focus of the domain on targeting "Detroit headshot photography." From what I have read, this will maintain the vast majority of my link juice.
  2. File DBAs for "Detroit Photography," "Detroit Headshot photography," and "Headshots by Detroit Photography"
  3. Rename my GMB From "Headshot photographer in Detroit - Roketa Industries" to "Headshots by Detroit Photography" and reference by DBA document as supporting documentation.
  4. Rename My IG and FB presence to "Detroit Photography"
  5. Although my bread and butter is headshots, I am a pretty capable architecture photographer and have a big library of photography of Detroit, which can rank for informational topics on my detroitphotography dot com domain.

How does my plan sound?

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

are my YT keywords being ignored?

I have 3hr+ YT videos, so I chapter them out quite extensively. I've read in a couple places if I have too many keywords just grouped together they will all be ignored. Are my keywords being ignored...or are they even being crawled...through my chapters section? Also, is hashtagging in a chapter name good, bad, or not at all relevant? example chapters: Bookmarks: 0:00 Intro 4:25 Little Panda #littlepanda 13:04 Royale With Cheese Megaways #royalewithcheesemegaways 24:48 Big Bass Bonanza #bigbassbonanza 33:02 Book of Cats #bookofcats 44:11 Tractor Beam #tractorbeam submitted by /u/bauerwelson [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/3Gx8IPZ
