Help with structure for optimizing Photography Website SEO
Hey guys ,
I am building a photography website and currently I have it setup the following way for my image galleries :
mywebsite/portfolio/norway-landscape-photography/#!gallery6618-6577
This provides me with an individual link for each of the images in my photography gallery but as a gallery these have obviously no content and I figured the best way would be to add the images I want to work my SEO for to individual blog posts .
So here is what I did so far :
– Added a link to the caption of each image inside the lightbox that is linking to the individual blog post
– In order to not break the navigation I made the post with the content for each image open in a modal popup (it changes the link in the top bar but once closed it goes back to the gallery) .
– I made the image inside the post link back to the fullsize image in the lightbox gallery when clicked instead of linking to the .jpg in wp-content/uploads.
The image linking is setup this way :
Blog Image –> Gallery Image url –> wp-content/uploads/file.jpg
Now, I have some questions regarding whether this is a good practice in terms of SEO and if the fact of having duplicate images or this structure is going to hurt my SEO any way .
Is there a better approach for this ?
Thanks

I think you’ve made your site more user friendly with those changes.
But does your site have content people are searching for?
