Your meta descriptions aren't very long at 60 characters. You could write longer meta descriptions that include more info specific to that watch. Like, for http://www.traxnyc.com/Mens-Diamond-Watches-G-Shock-Watches-Casio-G-shock-Atomic-Solar-Watch-GWM5600-1V-item25463.html, the meta description is "Mens G-Shock Watches White Stainless Steel Item Price : $120", but the product is "Casio G-shock Atomic Solar Watch GWM5600-1V". When this page appears in the SERPs (when I search for the page title at least), the meta description is short so Google fills in a lot:
Mens G-Shock Watches White Stainless Steel Item Price : $120. ... TraxNYC is a leading retailer of Diamond Jewelry in the heart of New York's famous Diamond District .... Full Size Picture for Casio G-shock Atomic Solar Watch GWM5600-1V ...
-
Try using SKUs or bar codes / model numbers. This might additionally help you if people use barcode scanners or the like for search.
-
Instead of using descriptions for what is similar between the items:
Mens G-Shock Watches White Stainless Steel Item Price : $120
Use descriptions that identify what is unique about each:
Mens G-Shock Watches Solar Powered GW6900A-7

ECommerce Duplicate content on product pages (eg delivery info, contact details etc)
Hi, Running a Magento site and wanted to check about duplicate page content. We have 1000+ product pages and it has been suggested to remove some of the "duplicated content" which displays on every product page and replace this with an image of the same text content. By this I am talking about content which is for promo/customer purposes and is displayed on every page. eg: "If you find our products cheaper elsewhere then please click below to get your price match...... etc", and a chunk of text for the "Delivery Tab Information" and "Contact Tab Information" on each and every product page. A SEO company has suggested to turn this content into images. Does anyone have thoughts on this please?

Here are two pages as examples: http://www.formationsdirect.com/companysearchlist.aspx?start=MULLAGHBOY+CONSTRUCTION+LIMITED&next=1# http://www.formationsdirect.com/companysearchlist.aspx?start=%40a+company+limited&next=1# Also what about the actual company pages?

Page architecture
We have some good content on our site, particularly relating to UK employment law. One section on unfair dismissal is split into 9 pages - there is a fair amount of legal detail. The question is whether we should combine it all into one "mother of all unfair dismissal" page just to satisfy the Google monster or keep in as it is. Some of the individual pages rank on page 1 already. If we change the architecture are 301 redirects the best way to handle the changing urls? The other more important issue is whether it is easier to read it all on one page or split it. Keeping G happy may not actually keep our users happy. As the content is quite dense we want to ensure we don't overload people. Any thoughts appreciated.

Jquery in top of page vs text on bottom page
Is it the best way to use jquery sliders on the top of your page to still get all your text above the fold and score in search engines? for example: http://www.wolf-howl.com/wp-conte... is much better to score high ranks in search engines than http://www.wolf-howl.com/wp-conte... ?? Thanks!
