1.3 million backlinks, No SEO - Help ballparking the importance of SEO

I'm in an organization that has been around for a long time and has a website with no SEO. Their site has 1.3 million backlinks but only gets about 2 thousand organic clicks per month. The domain authority was very high (78/100 on the free tool I was using).

The membership of this organization skews (much) older and I would like to help them understand the potential their site has for driving traffic.

I have tried to explain it in writing, then through a video that I made specifically explaining SEO and the opportunity for the site. I haven't heard back all that much.

I cannot ballpark how much traffic a site like this could bring in, let me know your thoughts.

Possible questions:

Would it be pretty easy to bring a million visitors a month if we started publishing articles on the right keywords?

How many articles would you guess it would take to bring in 100k or 1 million visitors a month? Are these numbers too high or too low?

I am familiar with Yoast/RankMath and keyword research - That is enough knowledge to get the ball rolling correct?

I am hoping to share this thread with the leadership and make a real impact!

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 ...
