Apparently my site has 'no SEO at all'

Hi everyone

I'm a small business owner who teaches Literature to teens

I made a site on squarespace for my small practice but I've got feedback it's not SEO optimised. At all.

I have a budding interest in digital marketing so I'm willing to roll up my sleeves and do some work.

What should I do, would you say?

I thought I'd use my keywords without trying to, because they're so embedded in my copy it's hard to NOT use them.

Ask the people and SEMRush can get expensive, all I know with those is you look for high volume to low competition ratio.

My site is yet to appear on Google Search: think I need to submit the sitemap.

Meta data and alt texts are done.

That's about as far as my SEO knowledge goes. But I'd like to become better at marketing/ SEO and AI SEO.

Any advice for what a small business owner like me can do to be a bit more SEO smart would be amazing (I already run a blog!)

Thanks so much!

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 ...
