A new forum title of "Web Design & Development" will target more users for SEO keywords. Website construction and website showcase are not high volume search phrases.
Also, the web construction forum has the bottom of page 1 showing threads from August 2025, and showcase/reviews has posts from June 2025 in page 1. For these two great reasons, the forums should be merged together.
Merge these two forums together for SEO benefits & optics:
Website Showcase and Reviews
Website Construction
... and Web Development
Suppose you're not wrong but I'm not in the mood for more forum shuffling. It's a bit of a pain in the ass.

What about pausing on merging and just doing a rename to 'Website Development' instead of Construction for SEO?
Showcase & reviews COULD be Website Design but not sure if it fits 100%... The construction/dev word change seems a lot more straightforward and worth doing if you have the time.

I don't think we get any SEO traffic to these forums. They have almost no new threads. I don't think renaming or merging or any action would change that very much.

Probably right, I'll take your word for it and can close this suggestion thread if you want.
Thanks for the thoughts on this
If you do change your mind though, the stats are in favor of a change:

I am going to hold back on my idea for a triple merge in this case... :)
I missed this, but now am more eager to see merges.
But priorities are important. Thanks for all the replies!
