Google Website SEO Indexing Error

I've had my site up for going on 3 years now, I've done a lot of work on my site and only verified my site with google last year as i didnt know about seo until then.

I noticed that my header and footer logo wasn't ever linked to my home page - but everything else in my Google search console is correct like canonical tags and robots and what not.

I went to search console and noticed my home page has not been indexed or on google for i dont even know how long its been like that - the issue was "no referring sitemaps detected" and the referring page for the error pointed to a facebook URL.

When i inspect my main home page url it is the only page that hasnt been indexed - chatgpt told me to change the logos to point to my home page and recrawl so i fixed it.

Is it possible this can have caused significant SEO problems and reduced my rankings?

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 ...
