How I went from 6 to 140 ranked keywords in 1 month

A bit about the project

I build language learning applications, because I love learning languages.
So I built a game called Grake, which is inspired from the classic game Snake, except you grow the snake by capturing the words in the right order.
This is playful way to learn grammar, vocabulary, and syntax in foreign languages.

What I did

Used Ahrefs to find common expressions that people search for such as :

How to say in spanish.

this resulted in 33,691 keywords in the USA alone.

I filtered for low KD and high SV.

Then created pages that exemplify the word or phrase that match that keyword in Grake.

As a result I created pages whose title, description, and keywords in the metadata contained said keywords.

After 1 month, I successfully ranked for 140 keywords.

Although only 1 of them is top 10, I feel optimistic about my strategy of generating traffic, while I continue marketing my language learning application.

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 ...
