I Just Noticed That WWW Were Hidden from Chrome, Does It Mean We Should Use Non-WWW Now?

So I just notice this change when I updated my Chrome browser, and I started thinking this will surely change people behavior that in future more and more people will type domain without www. and slowly no one will be typing www. anymore.

​

My friend who co-own a website with me asked me if we should convert to non-www but I'm not sure about this because on a technical perspective I still don't like the idea of using naked domain, especially a lot of my website are using Cloudflare and they usually have some compatibility issues with non-www. But on SEO perspective if more people will just type the naked domain it means there'll be one extra redirection for them (from non-www to www).

What do you think?

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 ...
