What constitutes keyword spamming?

I run a franchise type business and we are mandated to use the SEO consultant for the company. I'm unsure if some of the methods employed are old school and perhaps hindering our rankings.

One of my concerns is regarding key word spamming, we have a services page alongside our home page and he has said for every service on the page we need to describe it using the service and the location each time, which makes it read very unnaturally. I.e on one page we have c7 different services listed then a 50 word description underneath

  • Boiler repairs

(description)

  • Radiator repairs

(description)

  • etc

For example boiler repairs would be. "We can help with your boiler repairs, as your trusted boiler repair people in paris" then similarly for radiator repairs.

​

From a reading standpoint it reads poorly, however this isn't really a concern because looking at our analytics customers tend to just call us after only viewing on page, my concern is that this is quite "spammy" and could be hurting our rankings.

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 ...
