Need some guidance on a fresh e-commerce website

Relatively fresh in this industry and this is the first time I'll be working on a website that hasn't really seen much work in terms of SEO and we will start building its online presence from the ground very soon.

So far its authority score is <10, having only a couple hundred visitors per month, below 50 referring domains and <30 branded keywords. The website is in the beauty niche.

What kind of strategies would you be thinking and how would you approach a relatively fresh website? Let's throw off-site from the equation for now, and concentrate only on on-site optimizations.

For starters, I'm thinking that the first priority should go to technical optimizations, thus having a functional website that can be indexed by search engines and boost product keywords and other branded ones.

Then I guess it would be worth to throw in non-branded keywords around the pages, conduct a competitor analysis in hopes to see what works for them and what we could implement, and eventually turn to content marketing, notably creating blogs.

But what else could be done? Would love to see your ideas and how you would start preparing the website for search engines, only taking on-site SEO into account at first. Hoping to get some directions on how to advance towards such circumstance.

Thanks!

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 ...
