Curious about long indexing delay - new website

I read so many horror stories here and have my own experiences, I wonder if my timeline here is now common compared to rare or one I should be concerned about.

May 28 - launched a new 6 page website (domain registered about 1 month prior) for client. Site uses GTM for both GA4 and to link to Search Console

June 4 - created and added account for Analytics and one for Search Console. (wanted to wait long enough for propagation, etc.)

June 4 - submitted sitemap to GSC

June 6 - observed root page was added, no other pages called out.

June 19 - 3 new pages added to website. Checked GSC, still 1 page and still no notice on any other pages (e.g. no crawled but not indexed, etc.) Submitted sitemap again. (with new pages added, or course).

June 25 - no change whatsoever in GSC presentation.

Is 3 weeks and soon to be going on 1 month a normal delay even for a new site/domain?

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 ...
