Footer link farms

In my country there's one of the biggest publishers with 80M/yearly revenue who has listed all their publications (staggering 53) + multiple links to main categories on these sites. So they have probably around 150 outgoing links in their footer to different news magazines, marketplaces, comparisons etc. Just bunch of unrelated stuff.

Since they are the biggest they get away with that.

Would I get away with that?

I run 10-20 different comparison/blog/review sites (mostly old, 5-10+ years, established sites) - some sites ranking very well for tough keywords already, but just started to think if I should try to leverage the network more boldly and just link all together the same way. Would I get burned?

I'm already doing some linking between the sites, but nothing systematical, just "organic" looking contextual linking.

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 ...
