Help with how to optimize SEO

Hello Reddit,

As someone who is new to SEO, I'm finding it difficult to determine the best direction to take. The vast number of options available has left me feeling stuck and unsure about how and where to start optimizing. My confusion has left me feeling lost.

I understand that having a blog is beneficial for SEO, particularly for increasing the number of keywords Google indexes in my content. However, creating and maintaining a blog requires a lot of time and effort, and since I am not being paid professionally for my SEO efforts, it feels like too much of an investment for me.

My main question is whether blogging is essential for ranking higher in search results. If not, what are some strategies for obtaining more quality content?

I am aware that building backlinks from reputable resources is a common practice, but I'm not sure how to go about this without having quality content.

In this instance, I'm helping out with a stone fabrication website. Any ideas/feedback are welcome.

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 ...
