      Lets suppose that i have 10 NICHE products under me. Should i make one site for each product or one site overall.

      If i make 1 site for each product i get several advantages

      1. Domain name has keyword

      2. Title tags etc will be dedicated to one keyword only.

      Disavantage - Backlinking for each domain will become tougher.

      Advantage of one site onl

      1. Good management

      2. Seo / backlinks becomes easier

      3. Blogging to attract traffic becomes easier

      4. Can target a lot of keywords through business blogging

      Disadvantages

      1. Can become messy with unimportant keywords gaining importance.

      SO WHAT DO YOU THINK??? One site per product or One site for all products?

        No.. All the products are related and they wall under the same product category. I guess u are right. By starting separate websites, i can miss reference business as well. As in a customer needing one product, might just need another as well.

          A variety of products can rank well if they are well SEO'd.

          If the products are related I'd put them together on one site. If they were ten totally unrelated products - for example, toe scratchers and garden gnomes, I'd be more inclined to create 10 sites. After all, you'll want to incorporate social media and develop content for your potential customers that is relevant or related to the products you are selling.

              It definitely helped. I was gonna go that with the primary seo strategy. But then i was confused whether i shud have one product specific domain itself. Lets c. Will try this strategy and i think it should work.

                Well,

                You can have a website architecture like:

                domain.com/productnamespecifickeyword.html 😄 - okay you will need to optimize that one 🙂

                and then target productnamespecifickeyword.html with links which have productnamespecifickeyword as anchor text

                I hope that hepled,

                Istvan

                  Thanks a lot for the answer. But if i have multi products in one domain, will all the keywords rank high??? As in i want to rank high for 10 keywords on the same domain, should i change the anchor text during backlinking?

                  What should be the seo strategy in one site multi product cases?

                    Hi Hitesh,

                    I would go for one domain.

                    Creating a lot of mini-sites maybe will help you in short term... BUT if you are going for long term, then you should focus on creating a larger websites. Focus on creating 1 page for each product and target it to the specific page.

                    With less effort you can benefit of link building for one domain. Don't forget to do a keyword mapping.

                    I hope it hepled,

                    Istvan

                      Pages Competing With One Another

                      Hello, We are ranking for an acronym, which I understand can lead to fickle rankings. However, we have two pages ranking page one - two for the same keyword, but they do so in spite of each other. By this I mean, one page will rank, while the other is nowhere to be found. It seems that the one page (a blog post) is more likely to rank on the weekends while the product page is more likely to rank on the weekdays. I would like the product page to rank all the time, and to target another keyword with the blog post. Would removing the keyword from the blog post allow the product page to rank all the time - or would it lead to no pages ranking during times when the blog post would otherwise be ranking? I should note the blog post has more external links and is not exactly optimized for the keyword, while the product page has more internal links and is optimized for the keyword.

                      Word Count - Content site vs ecommerce site

                      Hi there, what are your thoughts on word count for a content site vs. an ecommerce site. A lot of content sites have no problem pushing out 500+ words per page, which for me is a decent amount to help you get traction. However on ecommerce sites, a lot of the time the product description only needs to be sub-100 words and the total word count on the page comes in at under 300 words, a lot of that could be considered duplicate. So what are your views? Do ecommerce sites still need to have a high word count on the product description page to rank better?

                      Will it upset Google if I aggregate product page reviews up into a product category page?

                      We have reviews on our product pages and we are considering averaging those reviews out and putting them on specific category pages in order for the average product ratings to be displayed in search results. Each averaged category review would be only for the products within it's category, and all reviews are from users of the site, no 3rd party reviews. For example, averaging the reviews from all of our boxes products pages, and listing that average review on the boxes category page. My question is, will this be doing anything wrong in the eyes of Google, and if so how so? -Derick

                      How do you make product pages unique when there are thousands of products?

                      When an ecommerce site has 200 product pages, this is fine. It's time consuming, but I can write 200 unique paragraphs describing the product and it's not an insane amount of work for one person. But when there are 10,000+ product pages... what is the best way for one person to go about this? Risk the page being thin and just bullet point a couple of "need-to-know" info bits, or take the time to prioritise what products could benefit the most from the unique content and get cracking with a paragraph for each? Or do you just forego having truly unique copy on each product page and just aim to optimise the category pages for the longtail? Just wondering how you guys deal with thousands of product pages really. Starting to feel as if I should re-evaluate my strategy and wanted to get some idea on what others are doing... Notes: Product pages already have reviews, helps with adding more unique user-generated content to each page. There's dynamic content e.g. "You may be interested in...", "Related products", etc.

                      HTML Site SEO (NO CMS)

                      I have got a client site, which is dated (2007) and has not been shifted to any recognised CMS yet. It is HTML based. Is it possible to SEO on such a site? Is it even worth it? If it is possible to do SEO on this, any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

                      How many product subcategories are ok?

                      Let's say I have a sea glass ankle bracelet.  On my site, my main keyword is "Sea Glass Jewelry" and have ranked relatively well for this, but this main page has over 200 products in it. I thought that if the URL has the keywords in it, it would be beneficial.  I also have a section for all my bracelets, so it would be there and then, a more specific ankle bracelets category. So, technically, an ankle bracelet will show up 3x. Sea Glass Jewelry (all products go here) Bracelets (all bracelets go here) Ankle Bracelets (only ankle bracelets) The URL is only attached to the main category so to speak.  If you click the ankle bracelets category, the url will still revert back to the original main category:  seaglassjewelry/sterlinganklebracelet  so I don't believe there is duplicate content. I have had my domain for years and it has ranked well until someone hacked into my site 2 years back.  I have never been able to recover from this loss.  Since then, I have tried to optimize my site, but nothing seems to be working and I just want to make sure that I am not hurting my ranking by doing this. Can someone confirm this is the best way to do it or make a suggestion? Thank you.

                      Selling Products with a similar meta description

                      Wondering if anyone can help when selling similar products with very similar meta description and product descriptions in general. Have around 500 products - a lot of products have around 10-20 products which are very similar only different is sizes and a maybe a few lines of text if that. Is this a problem in search engines? How does other ecommerce stores selling similar products solve this problem...
