Weighing new business names and have a SEO question

I'm considering a name for a new business that I like a lot, but there's already a ton of hits for that phrase. Without getting too specific, I want to use the name of a cocktail, and of course there are tons of hits for that cocktail recipe (it's not margarita or anything that common). How hard would it be to rise to the top above sites like Martha Stewart and Knob Creek? The cocktail recipe is one page on their site, it would of course be the header on every page on my site. Do business names trump single pages in terms of rankings, assuming all the other SEO pieces are in place? Would I be struggling on the 3rd page as a small new company below a bunch of recipes?

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 ...
