Expired Domain Link Building

Been reading up on acquiring expired domains with backlinks and redirecting them to your site. I’ve had great success doing it in domains with under 50 RD that all pass a thorough manual audit through various tools and an eye test.

However, what if we buy a domain with say…100k backlinks that pass through our backlink audit process. This is a ton of new links to our site, and I’m sure would be flagged as suspicious by Google, right? That being said, what if a client buys another business whose site has 100k links, and therefore wants to redirect the old business site with existing links to the new. This happens all of the time, but does Google also see this as suspicious. I’m seeing this as essentially the same thing as buying old domains, but trying to figure out if there’s a limit to how many links we can bring on.

This is only something to be done once for a client, so I’d never buy a bunch of cheap domains with backlinks to redirect, as I’m sure that will look fishy.

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 ...
