College junior looking to digital marketing for potential career

Hey guys, Happy Holidays!

I’m currently a junior in college majoring in Political Economy. I like my major but the job prospects aren’t too appealing to me (it seems like it’s either grad school, Law School, teaching abroad, etc.). I’m starting to worry a little bit because I need to find an internship this summer and don’t know what to look for. Last summer I did legal research for my University’s Law School and also helped Law students with writing projects. It was great, but I’m afraid it just prepared me more for Law School than anything else.

Anyway, digital marketing / SEO-related work seems like a good path for me: in fairy confident in my ability to learn the technical aspects, and writing has long been one of my strong suits.

However, I’m worried because I feel like I’m a bit screwed time wise. I feel that there’s not too much time to learn if I start now in order to get an internship this summer. Is it possible? What are the steps I should take after reading guides like Moz? Should I just apply for SEO internships now and learn after? What kinda of places should I be looking for?

Thanks so much guys.

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

Clients site has a weird issue with 302 redirects that I haven't seen before.

Site is in Drupal, hosted on Amazon CDN & Cloudflare. So here's a quick breakdown: The site itself works normally. It's a bit dated, but you can click on links and navigate around as you'd expect. Seeing no obvious issues, I run a Screaming Frog crawl to begin my audit. Only 5 pages were picked up by the crawl which was super weird, since all internal links are regular html and there shouldn't be any issues. So I go through the site and manually collect a bunch of URLs, which I submit to SF again as a list. Every single link bar the 5 originally crawled return a 302, with the 'redirect' pointing back to the home page. Except as I said, those pages don't browser redirect. Browser side, they work fine. I guess they redirect the crawl bot though, since the rest of the site is functionally invisible. Other tools I've looked at say that the pages return simultaneous 302 and 200s, which doesn't make too much sense. These 302s are also old enough ...
