Products stuck in ‘Under Review’ status in Google Merchant Center since Aug 27

Since August 27, I’ve been experiencing an issue in Google Merchant Center. The majority of my products (exactly 328 items) remain stuck in the “under review” status. Because of this, they don’t get pushed to my Google Ads account, and I can’t advertise them.

I contacted Google Support via email but haven’t received a reply. I tried several fixes: updating product images, rewriting descriptions, refreshing the product feed, etc., hoping that something might resolve the issue, but no matter what I change, the status doesn’t update.

At the moment, only 92 products are being synced to Google Ads, which I’m able to advertise. In total, I have about 300 products in stock, so ideally all of them should appear in Google Ads.

It’s worth noting that Google released an update on August 27, and as shown in the screenshot, the problem has existed ever since. Before this date, I never had any issues.

Interestingly, in Search Console I can see that since August 27, my traffic has increased by about 50%.

What can I do to solve this? Has anyone else experienced the same issue? Could this possibly be a bug on Google’s side? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

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 ...
