Does it make sense to do SEO for this site?

I am asked to do an SEO audit for a big brand that makes all kinds of tools. They want their site and products to do better in Google and asked me to figure out what to do.

I got a little stuck, because for all of their products (thousands) they have product pages. But the 'add to cart' button is changed to 'Buy on ***.com'. They outsourced their sales to large retailer who sells all their products. They don't actually sell or ship products themselves to consumers.

My question is, does it even make sense to do SEO for their product pages? They are just like any other Ecommerce, but the only difference is that the product pages link to another ecommerce where you can actually buy the product.

Will Google rank these product pages in the first place, knowing you can't actually buy the product on this site?

The product pages do actually automatically pull all reviews from the outsourced selling ecommerce site.

Please advise. Thank you.

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 ...
