Does buyer intent matter more than search volume on YouTube ?

I've been experimenting with YouTube recently and noticed something interesting.

One of my videos only got around 64 views, but it ended up generating a sales call because the person watching was actively searching for a solution to a specific problem.

It got me wondering:

When you're doing SEO (whether Google or YouTube), how much weight do you put on buyer intent versus search volume?

For example,

Would you rather rank for a keyword with 100 highly targeted searches per month or a keyword with 10,000 searches but much broader intent?

Curious how people here think about this, especially those using SEO to generate leads rather than just traffic.

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.

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 ...
