E-commerce site link question

Our site has filters on the side so users can filter down our products, when a filter is applied then the URL changes. For example, when the filter for 4K video is selected:

/cameras/mirrorless-camera/canon-mirrorless/

changes to

/cameras/mirrorless-camera/canon-mirrorless/?pi=1&filter=videoresolution-csc:4k

Sometimes, the second link (with the filter applied) is linked to from our blog and so is getting indexed. Am I right in thinking it is damaging to our SEO if these types of pages are indexed?

If so, what would be the best way to deal with this? Would it be a canonical tag? (but would this stop the page getting indexed?)

As you can tell I'm an SEO newbie so any help would be greatly appreciated!

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 ...
