How much is blogger outreach used in link building campaigns?

Hi, I am building a link building campaign for a client and was wondering what the best practices were to go about this, as to not be penalized.

Our plan is to create a base set of content centered around our industry and market, then reach out to bloggers and websites within our industry to either feature a post on their blog linking back to our site, or to ask for a guest post on their site.

I know back in the day this type of practice was more common and sometimes it could have been a shady business to build links. Now that Google has gotten better at detecting fraudulent link building and can penalize you for paying for links, I was wondering how relevant this "blogger outreach" idea is in today's environment.

There are plenty of services out there that offer this outreach strategy to build a link profile, some seem more legit than others, but I was wondering how much this is still practiced today among SEOs.

Thanks.

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 ...
