New site vs old site

I am curious on your responses on this. I have an older site, over 12 yrs. I am speaking with seo companies in my area and a couple agree my site is outdated and could use a rebuild which I completely understand. My concern is my site is our only form of marketing and I'm concerned with someone building out a new site for us do do time it would take to rank the new site. We need all the calls we can get in the winter since it is our slow period. One company suggested if I wanted to keep the old site since it does produce and he could build a new site with a slightly different name like "AAA Company Name" with a different phone number to track results. He would then seo monthly this new site. He stated there are ways to do this without red flagging google or confusing search engines. Curious as what some of you think k about this strategy and if it seams solid. Thank you all.

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 ...
