How to get clients for freelance when you're from a tier-3 country?

Hey everyone! I'm facing a weird situation and an income block here. I'm from a tier-3 country and have been in the SEO space for a couple of years; mostly building affiliate sites and making 300-400 bucks from them. Haven't been able to scale much bc of obvious reasons that an average nobody from a tier-3 country can't afford to invest $5-10k in SEO projects. It's just a LOT of money for us.

I'm currently doing an highly underpaid full time and I make more from my sites than the full time by it helps me fund my projects to an extent so I can't leave it.

If I approach local businesses here, they're the least interested in SEO as everything happens offline, f2f.

Only option is to approach businesses in tier-1 countries but they're way too disconnected from third world countries and would rather prefer working with natives.

For me to fund my campaigns I earn like a few bucks an hour and pay 5-10x my hourly wage for services I get (I try to do everything on my own mostly tho)

This is a very complex situation and I really want to get out of this and scale the way I want and grow my knowledge base and SEO skills with a fair wage and fair opportunities.

I would highly appreciate if anyone drops in an advice or suggest me ways to get over this situation. I really want to grow.

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 ...
