Number of Clicks away from home

I know it’s important to have your products as close to the home page as possible, or at least I’ve always understood that you don’t want to be more than 3 clicks deep because those pages are viewed with less importance and users have a harder time finding them.

I have categories for our products and more than 100 different products for some of our categories. I can’t place all of the products on the category page because our ahref count starts to grow pretty fast. I’ve always understood that it’s best to keep your links to well under 100 per page. Some of our category pages have over 400 urls on the page (other links other than products) so my only option appears to be creating another page just to categorize all of these products into a subgroup. Now I’m creating a whole new page just for a subset of a category which puts products 3+ clicks away from home and has a risk of duplicate content.

Perhaps paginating this content on the category page (one click from home) is the best method here.

Any advice or ideas to get our products closer to home would be super helpful.

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 ...
