Reclaiming my business google accounts and Social from Agency

My agency set up my google search, analytics, business profile, ad accounts, and social media when I started with them 5 years ago and I have no access except for search console viewing permission. They are verified owners/ admins of all of my digital accounts.

I want to leave this agency but I need logins first. I asked for it all last week and was met with defensiveness and told that anything I needed to see was in their dashboard. I know that I am going to have to rebuild my website, because it was built on their “proprietary platform.”

What recourse do I have in reclaiming these accounts? Will google transfer them to me if the agency ultimately refuses?

Also, my site has 567 backlinks and it looks as though they’re irrelevant directory links from sites like yellow pages. Mostly for name variations that are not me and irrelevant search queries. Is this normal? Would they have had to build all of these? Just trying to figure out how that happened.

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 ...
