SEO Strategy For Local Bathroom Fitting Business

Hi all, I’m by no means an expert in this field but I am trying to improve my websites rankings for “Bathroom Fitters” in my local area.

So far, I’ve spent quite a fair bit of time attempting to improve my websites results on page speed insights. Unfortunately, I’ve chose to use Wix which is something I understand probably wasn’t the greatest choice.

My site has 14 pages which average around 75 for performance and 100 for accessibility, best practice and SEO. That’s for mobile, desktop is closer to 95, 100, 100, 100

I’ve been unable to hit 90+, on mobile, as each page seems to have an issue with LCP which I’m beginning to think could be an issue with the speed in which Wix delivers the image to the browser (but I’m not certain of that due to my lack of experience)

I’m looking at competitor sites in my area and they don’t have results anywhere near as good as mine so I’m not certain if this goes for me.

Also, I’ve used keywords everywhere to look for directories which have a decent domain authority and created profiles on them ensuring that my name, address and phone number are consistent with the ones on my website as I’ve been led to believe this is important.

I’ve submitted my site to Google & Bing and created a Google My Business & Bing Places profile which I naturally plan to update with content and reviews as time goes on (along with social media profiles)

Lastly, I’m considering that it may be a good idea to start a blog looking at long tail keywords specific to my town. For example, Top 5 Bathroom Showrooms in XXX etc etc…..PLUS, I’m considering perhaps contacting some local independent bathroom showrooms, building contractors, interior design companies and offering a guest post exchange on each others websites promoting a backlink that way.

My site is approximately 6 weeks old so I’m currently ranking around 45th in my local area. Hoping to get to number 1 through genuine strategy and determination.

Any thoughts, comments, advice would be appreciated.

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 ...
