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.

Keyword stuffing on category pages - eCommerce site
Hi there fellow Mozzers. I work for a wine company, and I have a theory that some of our category pages are not ranking as well as they could, due to keyword stuffing. The best example is our Champagne category page, which we are trying to rank for the keyword Champagne, currently rank 6ish. However, when I load the page into Moz, it tells me that I might be stuffing, which I am not, BUT my products might be giving both Moz and Google this impression as well. Our product names for any given Champagne is "Champagne - {name}" and the producer is "Champagne {producer name}. Now, on the category pages we have a list of Champagnes, actually 44 Which means that with the way we display them, with both name of the wine, the name of the producer AND the district. That means we have 132 mentions of the word "Champagne" + the content text that I have written. I am wondering, how good is Google at identifying that this is in fact not stuffing, but rather functionality that makes for this high density of the keyword? Is there anything I can do? I mean, we can change it so it's not listed with Champagne on all the products, but I believe it would make the usability suffer a bit, not a lot - but it's a question of balance and I would like to hear if anyone has encountered a similar problem, if it is in fact a problem?

Tools to scan entire site for duplicate content?
HI guys, Just wondering if anyone knows of any tools to scan a site for duplicate content (with other sites on the web). Looking to quickly identify product pages containing duplicate content/duplicate product descriptions for E-commerce based websites. I know copy scape can which can check up to 10,000 pages in a single operation with Batch Search. But just wondering if there is anything else on the market i should consider looking at? Cheers, Chris

Big Site Wide Link
Hi Guys, I've noticed that Google is starting to de-value site-wide links... Our previous SEO agency sourced us a site wide link on a big website and at the moment within Google Webmaster Tools its showing 749,726 links from this 1 source. Do you think this is too many? Could this be being flagged by Google? Here is the site: http://tinyurl.com/7bttw3b Cheers, Scott

Redirect micro-niche site to bigger niche site?
I have a micro niche site that performs reasonably well (page 1 at least) for it's main keywords. It is an exact match domain. To save the ongoing maintenance of a site that gets less than 10 visitors a day, I was thinking of redirecting this micro niche site to a bigger site (a niche site that the micro niche fits into, if that makes sense!) Would I lose rankings because of the power that the EMD provided? Would it be better keeping it there for the backlink it provides to the bigger site (although on the same C Class IP)
