Advise on local SEO when no physical address.

Guys hi, could you please advise how to approach the following ?

We do different types of tours in specific location (let’s call it “location”) and target keywords:

location bicycle tours

location walking tours

location segway tours

Neither we no our competitors have physical location at targeted area cause rent is very expensive (we just deliver bicycles / segways for the tour there) that’s why we currently do not have google places listing and just use google ads to bid on above mentioned KWs. (basically no local seo)

However one of our competitors created 2 google places listings named Location Segway Tours and Location Segway Tour, somehow he managed one of them to be listed at location address he does not have (it’s not real address at all, it just interesection of avenue and street) and now any time user searches for location segway tours his google place listing is showing up in the right top (like if user is searching for his company).

Another competitor also created google places listing names Best Segway Tour Services and also managed to be listed in address he does not have. So now any time user is searching for location segway realted KWs it’s showing on the map (together with 2 google places listings mentioned abvove).

It effects us a lot.

What are our options ? What would you recommend ?

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 ...
