Local Pack vs Organic

Hi guys,

So I have kind of an advanced question for SEO strategy for a client.

After doing research the keywords they want to rank for are dominated by top national brands and the only chance we have at ranking is through the local pack, and rich snippets.

Has anyone created an on-site strategy that is different, wholly focused on ranking for the local pack and thats it?

I know there are quite a few main factors like on-page signals, GMB, location of user, reviews, ect.

Should I still create an SEO friendly content strategy based on KW research, or focus heavy on all other ranking factors, and create a site that is 100% focused on converting the user.

I have the process of how this type of customer shops and want the website to reflect that, and not do a typical site structure. The hope is it create a great place for the user to learn and be converted into a lead, and get on-page signals from that and the fact that the site is aimed at that category.

Hope this makes sense, 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 ...
