How do I build authority for SEO?

I'm building a free tool site (calculators and unit convertors), which went viral in a few subreddits, sending 2K+ visitors to my site in the past few days. Its very young and most pages are yet to be indexed. I wish to turn this site into one of the most trusted and reliable sites for calculators, unit convertors and similar resources. Some things that come to my mind are fast, responsive and well designed pages and tools, better content, blog posts (maybe, not sure about this), on page and technical SEO, earning backlinks naturally and through requests.

Is this approach correct or am I missing out on something? Can I beat existing competitiors which rank in google using this approach?

Also, does the virality of a site on social media (especially reddit) have any effect on SEO?

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 ...
