I want to set up an SEO blog. Does anyone have any advice?

I'm currently in the second year of my marketing degree, and I am due to start my placement year working in a communications officer post for a non-profit.

I regret my choice for placement now. I have become really into SEO and feel like I want to pursue a career as an SEO specialist when I graduate.

I am currently creating a website for an SEO blog to help small and local businesses. The end goal is to do some free or cheap work to build a portfolio and then progress into an agency.

I am most interested in on-page and technical SEO. I find structured data easy to understand and feel that's something I could easily do with a bit of practice on my website.

I've learnt HTML and CSS basics and also played around with designing websites in dream weaver. I've done half of the google skill shop courses, including search and analytics. I'm always eager to learn more and would greatly appreciate recommendations for courses or accreditation.

Does anyone have any tips or helpful advice on starting my SEO blog?

😊

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 ...
