How do my competitors rank their brand new Black Friday posts over my established/updated/backlinked Black Friday post?

I have a Black Friday post that I expand and update each year.

It has loads of backlinks, comments, social media shares and generally ranks #1 for "black friday [niche]" and so on all year.

Two or three days before Black Friday, two of my competitors with zero backlinks and lower domain authority write a Black Friday post, and like magic, they have position #1 and #2, and I'm pushed to #3.

What's with that?

How on earth does this happen? Is Google just favoring brand new content?

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

GMB territory inching with service company

Seeking advice on extending our service area, while our main GMB profile states SD County, we only rank in our neighborhood but we have the team to service much more jobs. The boss wants us to get addresses in these hot territories within the county and use call rail numbers to validate the GMB profile. Question: Does this still work? Will it catch up with us? OR is there a better way to rank in a territory for a service. We are 4.9 stars with 120+ reviews submitted by /u/SoCal619TradesPro [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/9RWmh6i
