Why so little "seo optimized" websites actually have a score of 100 on google pagespeed, core web vitals?

Almost every time I see an SEO "expert" or "agency" claiming to know what they are doing, I am usually going to their website (or their clients) and find scores between 50-80 (sometimes even lower) and never 100 points (in pagespeed categories: Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, SEO). Especially in the "performance" category, I often see scores below 50.

For me (webdev for 16 years now, also NOW doing proper SEO, prior only technical SEO), this shows a lack of professionalism, since those are the technical foundations to run successful SEO.

Why is that so, and does it actually matter?

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 ...
