Replit SEO is...Bad

My testing for Replit is officially complete and the results aren't great

First, I should admit I love the product. Being able to prompt and push live is an incredible feature and it'll still be a useful product for staging my client's sites. I also find a lot of the backend features to be wonderful, CMS, pSEO, and quick easy edits are something that are a step function better than the Webflows and WPs of the world.

But in terms of SEO, it's pretty staggering how bad it is. And I worked diligently with the team to make sure I wasn't missing anything

We gave it 3 months for many sites and the impressions dropped by +80%...fortunately I don't care if these sites drop - and if I purely wanted a pretty site - I would just keep using Replit. But I almost only care about traffic and can push code directly. Thought I'd let people know in case they're seeing worse results on SEO.

Anyways, back to WordPress

P.S. one of my previous posts tried to get a read on SEO on Replit and I actually re vibe-coded the entire site via Nextjs, noting that was maybe the main issue. But alas, that made no changes.

Would love to see things improve but just isn't ready for a major site today

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 ...
