Question regarding URL slugging/redirecting a sites homepage for SEO benefit?

Something like this? Basicially, I'm using wix & I'm in the SEO settings for the page, & it's asking me to set my homepages URL slug. I don't have one though. my sites .com address brings up the homepage not .com/home. & it wont let me leave it blank. If I just add say /home wont that be bad for my SEO as there will be 2 addresses? Also if set, the .com/home address wont work unless I add a 301 redirect, then it'll redirect to .com . Will that affect my SEO? This seems extra. For no benefit. If I added keywords into the slug instead of it being just/home, would that help my SEO? Wouldnt google just index the .com version though & not the .com/home version though because of the 301 redirect? Thus the keywords not helping? What about if I do a domain redirect instead & redirect people going to .com to a URL slug of .com/home ? That wouldn't help SEO I don't think though, unless it was .com/home-keyword or something right? In that case would it help or would Google be indexing 2 sites? This is annoying, seeing as wix wont just let me leave the URL slug for my homepage blank.

Thoughts anyone?

Will any of this positively affect my SEO positively or negatively?

Is it just redundant nonsense?

Any ways to get around it?

Thanks!

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

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

are my YT keywords being ignored?

I have 3hr+ YT videos, so I chapter them out quite extensively. I've read in a couple places if I have too many keywords just grouped together they will all be ignored. Are my keywords being ignored...or are they even being crawled...through my chapters section? Also, is hashtagging in a chapter name good, bad, or not at all relevant? example chapters: Bookmarks: 0:00 Intro 4:25 Little Panda #littlepanda 13:04 Royale With Cheese Megaways #royalewithcheesemegaways 24:48 Big Bass Bonanza #bigbassbonanza 33:02 Book of Cats #bookofcats 44:11 Tractor Beam #tractorbeam submitted by /u/bauerwelson [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/3Gx8IPZ
