Low SEO Value Content

I’ve had one of my clients hire a VP of marketing and they have shifted the role of my agency creating content on their behalf more towards them creating the content and sending it over to me for publishing an optimization. Trouble is that the content they are sending over to me is “executive thought leadership” stuff and is performing pretty poorly from an SEO standpoint. As in some pieces are just getting ignored by Google. I’m worried that if we continue on this path it will start to negatively affect the existing base of content and send us back in time. I’ve taken this client from about 200 clicks per quarter to about 5k (B2B lead gen where volume is lower) so we had some good momentum but right now we are in more of a plateaued state than a growth one. As you know it can be difficult and time consuming to start cranking things back upwards if Google starts to view a site unfavorably but I don’t know if it’s actually a problem or if I’m being a worry wart. My thought is creating content that’s being ignored by Google is gonna get the site panda fucked once it hits a tipping point of enough poor performing content.

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 ...
