Choosing the right framework does matter

Been in SEO for couple years now and I'm trying stuff every now and then. Like most SEOs I started with WordPress and encountered typical SEO and ranking issues until it got me where I am today.

Half a year ago, I published a Website I have coded myself with SvelteKit, thinking a self-coded website must be more worth (EEAT score, performance, less duplicate code whatev).

As an experiment, I recently launched a website I have done with GODADDY WEBSITE BUILDER WHICH IS ON ITS WAY TO OUTPERFORM MY SVELTEKIT site. It took me less than 3 hours to build it from scratch with GoDaddy Website Builder.

My spirit is crushed ngl.

It took my SvelteKit site half a year to rank for 100 keywords (20 of them top 10) whereas is it took my GoDaddy Website 1(!) week to rank for 100 keywords (0 of them top 10).

My godaddy website has 0 backlinks / 0 ref domains whereas my svletekit site has 200+ backlinks / 30 ref domains. Imagine I start building links for the Godaddy website.....

Also, the content of my Godaddy website is literally keyword stuffing. I really hope that the Godaddy website is getting sandboxed SOON otherwise I'll have to rethink my approach on On Page SEO.

Just wanted to rant, thank you for reading.

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 ...
