Have Any of You Ranked Health Sites Recently? Is it Even Possible Post YMYL-EAT?

I've wanted to create a health/nutrition site for a long time and after my recent project is completed it's something I'd like to do.

However, with Google's EAT/YMYL update in 2018, I've been wondering if it is actually possible rank health-related sites nowadays?

Has it eased off? Can you even rank health-related website without being a conglomerate with a panel of PhD editors? I really have not been paying attention to this part of SEO in the past few years.

I have noticed Googles overall push towards a more corporate internet (where sites like Business Insider now rank for health queries and Home Living Magazines ranking for esoteric terms), which has me doubley worried when making a health site of all topics.

However, I did see a site like NerdFitness ranking for some health terms, and they are definitely not corporate like Healthline, WebMD, etc.

To reiterate, can you rank a health site post YMYL-EAT if you're not a company with a panel of doctorate editors? Is it possible?

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 ...
