Hey everyone, we've just onboarded one of our biggest clients yet. A Premier League team, and I'm getting a bit overwhelmed with the size of the project.

To give you all context, I work with one of the largest Agencies in the world, (although I'm starting my own agency and will most likely leave in a few months) They've just signed the club for SEO and PPC as they want to double their revenue by the next couple of years in the E-commerce department and we'll be overseeing the SEO.

I think this is the largest client I worked with thus far. Their current Branded vs Non-Branded keyword ratios are:

Branded traffic: 92.4% by 1.78k keywords Non-Branded traffic: 7.6% by 39.82k keywords

They emphasised how much they want us to focus on the On-Page optimisation.

It is pretty obvious that although they have an insane amount of non branded keywords, they're hardly bringing in any traffic. My first thought was to do an all or nothing and use the Pareto Principle. Knowing that these are the ratios, there will be a lot of cleanup, deep optimisation and pages to be removed. However, they aren't too keen on that and as they're very large and every single thing is meticulously checked, it is becoming more communication than work. How would you guys suggest I approach the On-Page with a site this large and keep the big changes to a minimum?

They get around 3-4.5 million organic search traffic per month and have 8.8M backlinks which is nuts given the fact that there weren't divisions they were delegating all the workload to. Just one fairly small department and have never disavowed a backlink.

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 ...
