Hi Atul,
Just wanted to let you know that the questions in Pro are indexed and visible in Google right away. Right now, this post ranks #9 for that domain name on Google, so if your client searches their domain name they might find this post.

Atul,
in long term you can find duplicate content if you don't prevent it. (just because there might be some path problem).
For ex.
you have product A that can be reached through Cat. A or Cat. B, so you will have two paths:
example.com/catA/prodA
example.com/catB/prodA
Which will be the same product reached from two pages -> two different URls with same content -> duplicate content
Regarding Frames:
Currently you have 1 URL because of the frames.
If you would go for 1 page for each product, then you could optimize better the content for the specific keywords.

Thanks a lot for such useful suggestions.
" It is a lot healthier to have a site that can be crawled more easily by the search engines."
Do you mean that search spiders won't crawl the site easily becaise of spiders ?
Also, where do you find duplicate content on the site.

Hi Atul,
First of all I would advice to get rid of frames. It is a lot healthier to have a site that can be crawled more easily by the search engines.
2nd: you miss a lot of on-page optimization elements.
3rd: if the website is going to grow in products over time, you should think about information architecture. Go check in advance if you can get duplicate content issues because of multiple paths that can reach 1 product, and try to eliminate it. (p.s. advice - check for a faceted navigation at the products, maybe it will help you out)
4th: don't forget that content is king. Check for the keywords which you are targeting, create a keyword mapping, then on the most important pages/keywords write awesome content! And I mean the best you can deliver. This way you will give a boost from content.
5th: custom 404 pages, sitemaps...
Basically you still have a lot to do on the website.
Good luck with it!
I hope it helped,
Istvan

Bullet Points or Full Sentences
We are a furniture retailer and are currently looking at redesigning the website. Would it have an effect on SEO if the product descriptions were turned into bullet points and if the length of text on each page was shortened?

Advice for grouping short content briefs?
We have an engineering website (chemengonline.com) that publishes regularly, including content from our print magazine. In the magazine we have a section called "Chementators" where we highlight new innovations in chemical engineering. These are typically briefs and are often unique from one another. Last year we would group these briefs on a page like this http://www.chemengonline.com/november-chementator-briefs-5/. We recently relaunched our website and in the process decided to break the briefs apart into their own articles like this http://www.chemengonline.com/metal-free-atrp/. Considering the short length of the briefs but technical nature of the content, would you advise keeping them separate or going back to the old way of grouping them together on the same page? And if we group them, could you offer some advice on page title... Ex. "Chementators for February 2015" vs "Chementators - Graphene, Clean Power, Large Scale CCS, Nanoparticles, etc"

Analyzing word count on page SEO
Hey guys quick question, when I am analyzing/ doing word count for a particluar key word and I want to make sure that i am no where near Keyword stuffing, does Google consider the alt and title tags keywords of images as part of the KW count when looking for on page Keyword stuffing. For example. let say I have a page that i just created with 1000 words. and Only 2 of the words are my target Keywords. Then, if i add a picture and add the keyword to both the alt and title tag and description of the image, does google now consider the "page" to have a total of 5 keywords? Also, a lot has changed recently since penguin and panda, is there a good rule of thumb for what ratio to stay under as far as keywords to text.?

An ecomerce seo question
Looking for a few opinions on this please...Trying to reduce the number of pages I have to seo to rank on my websites and at the same time avoid the google over optimisation issues. Previously on our ecomerce websites we would have a category page for, say, 12 times, we would then seo that page for generic terms related to the page; ie, blue dress, cheap blue dress, blue party dress etc. The individual product pages would then be seoed with the title and h1 tags containing the exact product name and the url containing the product name too. This worked fine but we are suffering from some duplicate content issues of late (the products are mixture of few unique items and probably 95% imported affiliate datafeeds) as we have an average of 80,000 products per store we have neither the time nor the staff to rewrite everything (the products update daily directly from the merchants so would need to be done daily) What we are planning on moving toward is blocking the individual product pages from Google and instead putting all efforts into the category pages. The category page will contain plenty of quality unique content related to the category so the only duplicate content would be a line of the product name and price. Whilst we would still rank the category page for broad keywords we also would like to now rank the category page for 16 individual product names as there is a good profit to make made by the sheer volume of product names we plan on ranking for. Obviously we could not get all the products into the url and the page title as that would be silly but would it be acceptable to have multiple h2 tags on the page, each with a different entry, the product names (H1 will be saved for the category name). We can easily bold these keywords to help in the optimisation as per the seo moz onsite analysis tool and we can add image text to ensure the product name is featured at least twice on the page. As so few sites actually seo for the long tail product names, most retailers rank by virtue of their domain quality alone, our onsite seo doesn't have to be 100% but getting the best we can out of the page will help the efforts. Many thanks Carl
