Do I have too many H2 tags on my homepage?

Hi there!

~3 weeks ago I made a post asking about how long it should take my content changes to take full effect.

So our store ranked for two 1-1,5k volume keywords with the homepage on rank #7 and #9. The homepage was not at all optimized for these keywords so I decided these would be good to target.

I added some content (h2 tags, couple lines of text with each and product sliders). I was hoping to see some improvement but as of today we actually rank #11 and #13 for these keywords. Sucks!

Anyway, a theory I have is that maybe we have too many H2 tags and Google can't decide what they should rank us for.

  • H2 tags in banner slider: 5
  • H2 tags for each section I added: 2
  • H2 tags for every product in the product slider: 8 in each slider, so 16

In total we have 23 H2s. The product slider defaults to using H2s for the products and I feel like maybe this is causing us trouble?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

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 ...
