Any way to reduce outsourced blogging costs for my niche sites?

Hey there, long time lurker. (hi other lurkers!)

I currently run 3 niche blogging websites which are all on autopilot via outsource writers.

One of them has been around for almost 2 years, with 60+ well written articles. This one has been making me money from ads and eBook sales (which is my plan for the other 2 sites).

My other 2 sites are of similar niches that I have pretty strong confidence will grow quite well organically also. These two are only 1 month old.

My issue is, to get these new sites start indexing well I'm spending $10USD per week on each site for a 500 word article. I worked out the math and when I do this for my 2 sites it totals to about $1100USD over 12 months, which is a lot for an independent developer like myself.

If I also add on my fortnightly costs for my already well established site, the sum total to manage 3 niche blogs over 12 months ends up being closer to $1500USD.

I was wondering, has anyone been in a similar situation to myself where it suddenly becomes an expensive risk to proceed with more niche sites?

I would love to hear any suggestions anyone has on lowering my costs.

The profits from my first site are around $5USD/day avg so any external advice would be amazing before I decide to jump in the deep end.

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 ...
