New website, now it's time to SEO

Hi r/SEO,

I work at a company that invested a lot of time and $ in upgrading their website at the beginning of the year, and the site looks and seems to function much, much better. We are in the mid-market and enterprise B2B SaaS and hardware space.

The agency we worked with to redesign and republish the site was very skilled, but now we are looking to move on to SEO and trying to figure out where to start.

Tech stack:

  • Webflow + Webflow CMS for hosting
  • SurferSEO for content assistance
  • Ahrefs

Basic data from ahrefs:

  • DR: 26 (competitors are in the mid- to high-40s)
  • Referring domains: 90 (competitors are much, much higher - typically hundreds)
  • Total visitors: 1.7K
  • Organic Traffic: 261

When we look at our competitors and their data (at least on ahrefs), we seem way behind.

We started reworking some pages (8 of about 90 or so) using Surfer and within a few weeks, GSC shows our traffic increasing, so this seems like a good sign. But there are tons of pages to work on and we're not sure if we should keep going with it internally or hire in a consultant to help to help us develop a good strategy to work through this and understand if we are missing anything.

So for all the experts out there, the question is this -- where do we start? what will generate the most results the fastest? It seems like we can keep working with Surfer to update our internal content, but we haven't even started thinking about off-site SEO / backlinks and the myriad other facets to this.

Thanks!

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 ...
