How to Create automate Content for Big Ecommerce Site
-
Hello guys,
Im planning to do some big changes on my ecommerce,
On my ecommerce i normally ship services so tons of relative products but it will change from each brand.
For example i would like to say the same thing on each product landing page but just changing the keyword for the proper product lading page , but my fear is that this will look like duplicate content.
How can i deal with information on each landing page on a ecommerce that have more than 1k on services. I dont want to write this differently on each 1k on pages for products since they are doing the same thing but in different brands.
I hope you can help me on this.
Note: Is there any source of doing this type of Seo for automate page service generator?

Having a lot of duplicate content will make you vulnerable to Google lowering your rankings sitewide as they don't want sites with thousands of "thin" pages to rank well.
You can focus on improving the content on your most important or popular pages and expand from there.
Also, if you can encourage customers to review products that can be a great way to generate a lot of unique content in an inexpensive and scalable way (for example SEOMoz encourages UGC (user-generated-content) by awarding points and maintaining a leaderboard of top contributors).

You are correct. This will look like duplicate content to google and you should expect to see lots of your pages filtered from the search results.
I dont want to write this differently on each 1k on pages for products since they are doing the same thing but in different brands.
I understand, but if you want your content to be honored by google it is very important to avoid cookie-cutter content. If you don't want to do it then hire someone who can do it - but keep an eye on their work so they don't write too repetitively or copy descriptions from other websites.
I hope you can help me on this.
Sorry, you didn't get the answer that you wanted.

Agreed.
"I dont want to write this differently on each 1k [pages]"
But why not? It's very time consuming, yes, but will pay off exponentially in the long-run.
And then once you're caught up, writing those descriptions for any additional product that comes in will be abreeze.
That's the best-case solution; but to answer your concern directly, yes, there is a good chance that search engines will just disregard each write-up as actual content if it's in a template fashion with only a word or two swapped out.

There's no way to automate good quality content. I suggest using elance or some other freelancer site, or even the mechanical turk and having a team of people help you write custom product descriptions.

Our new site will be using static site generator which is supposed to be better for SEO?
Hi folks, Our dev team is planning on building our new marketing webpages on SSG or Static Site Generator(we are stepping away from SSR). Based on my research this is something that can help our SEO in particular for site speed (our site has a poor score).

Responsive Content
At the moment we are thinking about switching to another CMS. We are discussing the use of responsive content.Our developer states that the technique uses hidden content. That is sort of cloaking. At the moment I'm searching for good information or tests with this technique but I can't find anything solid. Do you have some experience with responsive content and is it cloaking? Referring to good articles is also a plus. Looking forward to your answers!

Making Filtered Search Results Pages Crawlable on an eCommerce Site
Hi Moz Community! Most of the category & sub-category pages on one of our client's ecommerce site are actually filtered internal search results pages. They can configure their CMS for these filtered cat/sub-cat pages to have unique meta titles & meta descriptions, but currently they can't apply custom H1s, URLs or breadcrumbs to filtered pages. We're debating whether 2 out of 5 areas for keyword optimization is enough for Google to crawl these pages and rank them for the keywords they are being optimized for, or if we really need three or more areas covered on these pages as well to make them truly crawlable (i.e. custom H1s, URLs and/or breadcrumbs)…what do you think? Thank you for your time & support, community!

Best-of-the-web content in steep competition, ecommerce site
Hello, I'm helping my client write a long, comprehensive, best-of-the-web piece of content. It's a boring ecommerce niche, but on the informational side the top 10 competitors for the most linked to topic are all big players with huge domain authority. There's not a lot of links in the industry, should I try to top all the big industries through better content (somehow), pictures, illustrations, slideshows with audio, and by being more thorough than these very good competitors? Or should I go for something that's less linked to (maybe 1/5 as much people linking to it) but easier? or both? We're on a short timeline of 3 and 1/2 months until we need traffic and our budget is not huge

In mobile searches, does Google recognize HTML5 sites as mobile sites?
Does Google recognize HTML5 sites using responsive design as mobile sites? I know that for mobile searches, Google promotes results on mobile sites. I'm trying to determine if my site, created in HTML5 with responsive design falls into that category. Any insights on the topic would be very helpful.

Google Freshness Update & Ecommerce Site Strategies
Just curious what other ecommerce SEO's are doing to battle fresh content. We've been having our clients work on internal blogs, adding articles one click away from landing pages, and implement product reviews when possible but I don't know that it's enough. Our bigger customers have landing pages (usually category pages) with very competitive keywords. So my main issue is what to do with fresh content on category pages.. I've toyed with the idea of having the landing page content re written every now and then. We used to use a blog parser to bring snippits of comments from the blog into landing pages but I believe that to be a problem with duplicate content. News snippits from other sites don't seem beneficial either. Anyone have any other ideas?
