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.

Does Website Design Matter?
I've got a new site officially launching next month (just waiting on a few inner page designs to be finished up). But if I'm looking to get a head start on backlinks, would it be okay to start publishing content now on one of the default WordPress themes? And then start publishing guest posts immediately to get backlinks? Or would Google look at the site as not being unique?

Linking between your own websites- yay or nay?
Hi Guys I have 4 different niche websites in the healthcare area and wondering is it a safe strategy to link between them? I'm not sure if this is frowned upon by the search engines. I have heard the term 'link wheel', but I'm not sure if this is what a link wheel would be. I do have 2 sites that are much more important than the other 2. One is a directory of practitioners and the other is my main site of my healthcare business. The 2 other websites are smaller niche markets that I also service. My directory was previously hurt by the Penguin update because I was using Linkvana and blog networks and the anchor text was too specific. I have discontinued using any blog networks or 'quick link' strategies. I'm now implementing a guest posting strategy on reputable websites. I want to do everything buy the book now and thought I should check before any new linking strategy. Thanks in advance! Clinton
