SEO Collection Pages VS 'Simple' Collection Pages [SHOPIFY]

Should we have SEO based Collections or SIMPLIFIED Collections?

We have a wide range of the same basic product.

Which obviously has a lot of 'similar' keywords that include the basic product, that perhaps we'd like to rank our collection pages for.

That said, there maybe some overlap, or the categories aren't actually that distinct, for example:

  • "Fast Computers"
  • "Micro Computers"

Another issue is we have a separate category that can include both Fast & Micro, and gets lots of searches ie

  • Steel x Computers
  • Aluminum x Computers

Obviously these could all be simply under the same 'computer' collection.

QUESTIONS

  • How important is simplifying the categories?
  • How many categories is 'too many' or 'too few'?
  • What about a 'materials' category?
  • How important is having different collections pages for SEO?
  • How damaging will having different collections pages leading to the same products be?

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 ...
