Hello,
I'm not entirely sure I understand your question so please let me know if this answers it or not.
You have two domains and would like to combine them into one domain. If one domain is much more "brandable" than the other you should probably go with that one. If they're about equally brandable you should probably go with the one that has the highest domain authority (DA Score).
Once you have decided which domain to keep, and which one to redirect you will need to plan how to redirect the old site. A migration strategy is beyond the scope of a Q&A post, but generally speaking you'll redirect every page from the old domain to its most equivalent / similar page on the new domain. This redirect should be a "301, Permanent" type of redirect, often - but not always - achieved with a line of code in the site's HT Access file. Sometimes this needs to be a new line of code for every page and sometimes a "regular expression" can be written, which allows one line of code to redirect many pages at once to their corresponding page on the new domain.
The .htaccess file may be hidden on the server, and will require you to show all files. Speak to your host if you need help. I highly recommend getting a professional SEO consultant to help you out on this one.
Resubmitting the old website's XML sitemap to Google once again can help speed up their discovery of all of the redirects.

Backlinks from ads on parked domains? Is this possible?
Hello Moz Friends, So as I was researching some competitive backlinks and I noticed a lot of backlinks that a clients competitor has are on parked domains and they appear to be google ads from some point. You know the pages that this page no longer exists, or hey do you want to buy this domain? and it has like 6 google ads on it? Yep those pages. My clients industry is construction and their competitor has links from zombie websites, foreign, websites and more. But the links are no longer on the page. Like when it was crawled, their ad was showing. Does this make any sense and is it usually temporary? Thank you for your thoughts friends!

Website completely disappeared from SERPS.
My website which was launched back in September 2013, after a few months it was ranking second page for some of the most competitive keywords. It was all because of some good quality guest posts from PostJoint. After a few months, the website was ranking on 16th page of Google, then 20th page, then 25th and now nowhere!! I agree that majority of the guest postings of PostJoint were blakchat. For this reason I have now disavowed all domains where I had guest posting done from PostJoint. My questions: 1. Is my website affected by Penguin, Panda etc? (There was no manual penalty though)

2. My website is nowhere even for "My Company Name", this is a shame, I have to run a PPC campaign in order to get the traffic where visitors were typing our company name in Google.
3. What are the remedies? I can't afford to start a new domain, because the domain has been advertised heavily (offline marketing etc). Please let me know your thoughts, Thanks in advance!0 -

Custom Domain Vs Free Sub Domain for SEO
What is your take on custom domain vs free sub domain for SEO? (example.com vs example.blogspot.com) Say if I have 10 links from 10 different domains but all hosted on blogger.com, will it still have the same link benefit as ones hosted on different hosting account? I am assuming it might be less due to the same C class IP appearing for blogger hosting. What do you think?

Multiple domains on same IP address, same niche but different locations.
I have a reseller web hosting account. I have more than 30 domains hosted on this account, and I have only one IP address. The websites are exactly similar in terms of niche but different locations, for example plumberlondon.co.uk

Formatting of Links in Direct Press Releases
I have been looking around but not found any great suggestions. If we send out a direct press release to a journalist, eg to their email address, what is the best format to send it in (eg word, pdf, rtf, html)? Also, if it was to be sent out as a pdf or word doc, is there a good way to put links in there to increase the chance of them putting a keyword link in the article if it was to be published on their site? Would a hyperlink in there be confusing or is that ok?
