Urgent Help Needed: Impressions Dropped to Zero Overnight – All Top-Ranked Articles Gone!

Has anyone else experienced a sudden and unexplained drop in Google search rankings and impressions? My site's impressions, which were around 300-500 per day, have suddenly dropped to a complete zero. I'm wondering if this could be related to a recent algorithm update from Google.
When I search using site:mysite.com, all of my posts appear as expected. Similarly, if I include my site name in a search term, the results show up as they should. However, if I search for the exact term without including my site name or using site:mysite.com, even the articles that previously ranked at #1 are completely gone. They don't even appear on the last results page.
This is puzzling, especially since these changes occurred suddenly and without any apparent reason. Is anyone aware of a recent Google update that might explain this? Or has anyone faced a similar issue and found a way to fix it? Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

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 ...
