What is, for you, a must-have skill in SEO?

In my experience, the ability to write is probably up there. You can't escape it. Link building? You need to write emails that people want to open, read, and be convinced. On-page? That's mostly writing.

Technical SEO is probably where you don't need it most of the time.

Other areas of digital marketing is full of writing as well.

I understand that there's usually a separate person for copywriting and content writing, but at the very least, probably have some writing ability. What else do you think should be on the list?

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

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 ...
