SEO and Pagination on search results
-
Hi
Our new site is still in beta mode, and I just wanted to check from an SEO perspective that on search results and on the pagination at the bottom of the page, is there anything we need to do so its compatible with the search engines and not have duplicate content issues etc
I have implemented search friendly URL's, but I would welcome any other issues or suggestions you have that will help improve the sites SEO performance
The URL of a search results page is
http://www.cheapfindergames.com/category-arcade-and-platform

Doug is correct,
the best practises is to not use ajax on load, only for futher requests.

This might help: http://code.google.com/web/ajaxcrawling/index.html
It's google's guide to making ajax applications crawlable!
Good luck!

The site is using AJAX thats why you cant see it. If you want to use AJAX instead of using a page refresh how can you can around the above issue?
Good idea with the category specific content.
Any other recommendations welcome

I'd be concerned that your javascript/ajax loader for the search results is going to hide the actual content from search engines. No point even worrying about the page navigation on these category pages if the content is invisible!
Use webmaster tools to take a look at how googlebot is going to see your site.
Just looking at the source of the page I can't see any mention of the content just the "
" placeholder.
I can't see the page navigation either.
Going forward I'd also try to get some more rich category specific content on the first page of each category...

Organic SEO for Local Towns
This is a fairly common question, but I am going to ask it again. I want to get ranked for many keywords: "hr outsourcing sheboygan", "HR outsourcing duluth", etc., all in my small state. Doing some random research, there are few if any pages with exact match phrases in the URL, Title, Etc. = No competition) Moreover, Google is not popping google places ads for these terms. My plan is to create fairly unique pages on my site optimized for each town. Right now, the pages are at 65% duplicate. I would assume that all of my pages will have some degree of duplication - there are similar elements on every page. If I run the content through a duplicate content tester, is there a % of unique content that would be fairly safe to avoid the duplicate content slap? Yes, I know it's more complicated than that semantic, heuristic, etc. - just looking for some general guidelines.

Hotspot area for SEO
Hi, we have an online store: http://www.redwrappings.com.au/ There's been a debate regarding which area is recognised to be the most important place/hotspot for SEO: Free delivery van area (top left panel) OR Top menu navigation Given that if you look at the page html source code, the top navigation loads last and the free delivery fan area is the first one to be read in the html source code. We did this because we want the body page content (h1 & text content) to be read first by search engine robot & also the body can load faster for the user. Is this the right thing to do or we better off load the top navigation first? Thanks
