The Truth About Ranking Websites

Hello SEO community

Now the advice I'm going to share with you may sound very obvious; however, it's important to keep this in mind when doing SEO for your business or a potential clients business because otherwise it will be very easy to get discouraged. I will also say I'm no SEO guru but I have had both current clients and other websites rank on the first page of Google in the past so take my advice however serious you would like.

The advice is that it'll take more effort to rank from the 2nd page of Google to the 1st than it will to rank from the 10th page to the 4th. Now the reason being is that normally when you get closer to the top of a ranking system you're going to find other companies who also focus on SEO; whereas, everybody from the 4th page on either isn't focused on ranking for those keywords or just isn't focused on their SEO strategy making it much easier to pass them with the slightest of effort. Like I said to many people this will sound very obvious, but at the same time I've also seen many individuals both clients and experts alike become very frustrated when their site was climbing at such fast speeds only to be halted or slowed on the second or first page. Remember SEO is the long game and with more and more people focusing on adapting their digital strategies it will take time and resources to provide a quality SEO strategy. Hopefully this messaged helped somebody out there but just keep pushing along

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 ...
