Will my brand name 'Triljon' be hard to rank for since it means 'trillion' in Swedish?

I’ve heard that Google prioritizes entities like people and companies over dictionary-style links. I recently bought a domain for the term Triljon just because it was a good name, but now we’re actually planning to rebrand the whole company to Triljon, which is exciting.

We don’t rely on SEO at all since a large part of our product is link sharing, so people won’t really discover us through Google searches. Still, we definitely want to rank as high as possible for our brand name.

The word Triljon means “trillion” in Swedish (we’re based in Sweden but it’s an international business). When you Google Triljon today you just get results about the number, which are kind of random. Without knowing much about SEO, I’m wondering: does this mean the term is so big that it will be really hard to rank for, or does it mean we basically have the keyword all to ourselves?

Obviously we’d still need backlinks and the usual stuff, but I’d like to understand if this is a good or bad position to be in.

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 ...
