Image Alt Text Value

I recently was brought into a company to do marketing and I'm finding many problems with the custom-built (WordPress) website.

The current issue I'm trying to solve is that image alt text is not being pulled correctly. Much of the site was built using taxonomies that auto-populate on pages. For example, the front page and other pages of the site have a line of logos showing our industry affiliations. Every logos' alt text is "Certificate Logo"... the name of the taxonomy.

My two fears are:
1. the taxonomies displayed on every page could cause duplicate content issues.
2. and keyword stuffing (for terms that have nothing to do with our site).

I have talked to our new developer and they want $500 to fix the issue. Are we being hurt $500 worth?

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 ...
