Do images sized smaller than shown slow speed? We have thousands

For years, I had been uploading featured images at 480 px wide because that was the old site image size, but we have changed to 700 px width for both headers and featured (thumbnails somehow automatically go to about 200px sq).

Recently I added an image converter to AIFF or WEBP to reduce image loading time.

Now in the uptime speedcheck, several (but not all??) of these old 480px images are cited by uptime as slowing the speed of the site. It says "size images correctly". (Also, a slider includes 700px images stretched to 100% screen width. Wouldn't that mean they are sized incorrectly too?)
Is there anything I do? I can't resize thousands of images.

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 ...
