Guys, I need your help

Context: I work in SaaS niche, for the previous 4-5 years with ups and downs, but I had stable growth in long term.

Current update: I see a dramatic decrease in traffic, but what is more weird - I don't see any huge fluctuations in SERP. Simply, I've lost many of my top3 positions (-3-5), but these SERPs +- remain stable. I'm trying to figure out the reason and what experiments I can run there to fix the case. Maybe anyone had the same/similar case?

Links, content - both are ok, I don't see any reason to analyze it again.
There are no technical issues.

The only thing I was thinking about - AMP. A bit more than a month before I've turnt them off, made 301 redirects from amp to non-amp, but all was ok. The non-amp pages started to rank, I had good positions. But the number of GOOD pages for mobile with time decreased to 0, and all pages changed their status to "needs improvement". This is the only thing I was thinking about. On the other hand if we talk about technical issues - you see them here and now in a couple of days or even hours, you don't need to wait for the update to see the impact of technical changes.

Any ideas from you guys, based on your experience?

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 ...
