Is it worth re-doing SEO for all existent products
-
We have a website and when we started, we had no clue about SEO, nor did we really understand the full extent of CRO amongst other things.
We have slowly learnt that there are many changes that need to happen to our site; however...do we need to re SEO all the content that is already on the website or can we purely start a fresh with the new products we feed through?
The website is:
www.onlineforequine.co.uk if you need to take a look at the kind of platform we are working with.

i noticed the same thing, not only do you need some text content you need it above the fold.

Yes very new, only about 10% of the products have the content they require and this is something we are looking into at the moment. We wanted to know whether we needed to review the entire site and from feedback I think we definately do!
When we started the site our understanding on content, CRO & SEO was non-existent, as time progresses we have discovered how important it is and we are now going to begin reviewing the site...from page one onwards!
Thanks for the feedback about the visual side though!

It is a nice website and I like the logo etc but straight away I can see problems (to name one lack of content), is this a fairly new website?
I think looking at conversion rate optimisation is also a good idea, put down on paper the pages in your conversion funnel and start looking at each one picking elements which effect the users decision.

I always think it is good that your site has problems, because it means you can improve.
Good SEO is an investment, that pays off

As we are not from a marketing/SEO/CRO background, we are really struggling on where and why things go wrong. We are fine with META but when it comes down to duplicate page content, too many links etc, we are slightly out of our depth!
Think we may have to get someone on board to help us get things on the right course!
Looks like we are going to be here for a long time.......
:S

i would go thought the site.
i did a quick crawl os a small part of your site and found quite a few problems. i would go though each page and fix up every thing you can find.
It may take you a few hours for each page, but over time it will pay off. Evey bit of link juice you can save, every crawling prioblem has a value in dollars (pounds in your case) that keeps on giving you a return day after day, year after year.

Google says :
you have about 6,490 results - pages indexed
you have about 28,400 results - pages linking to you
Are you happy with that?
Are you happy with your rankings too?
Both Yes? Then no I wouldn't change in big!
Maybe, start/improve small:
find issues on the site - User and SEO based
example?

What is the best SEO way for a shop
Hi there ! A client want to sell some products on its future website but just a small range (the most part of this website will not be an online shop). The idea is to add a "shop" button in the menu to redirect clients in this shop. I would like your opinion about how should I construct this shop, what do you think is the best for SEO : "www.website.com/shop" or "shop.website.com" thank you in advance for your answers !

Re-using content
Hi, I've just sold the domain for a website, so I'm free to re-purpose the content over to another website I own. How can I make sure that Gg doesn't deem it as duplicate? Do I need to let Gg naturally realise that the 'original' website no longer has the content on it? Do I need to hold-off putting the content live again? Should I notify Gg by-way of a de-index request, etc (assuming the domain won't incur any difficulty if I do this)? Thanks in advance.

SEO Benefit to SSL Certificate
Our site does not have an SSL certificate. I have read that in the process of adding one of URLs need to be redirected and that some link equity can be lost. Implementing an SSL certificate sounds somewhat complicated and far from risk free. Is there a tangible SEO benefit to upgrading to SSL? Will doing so help SEO in a tangible manner that justifies the cost, time and aggravation? Thanks, Alan

Should I use individual product pages for different formats of the same product?
Hi All -- I'm working with a publishing client who is launching a new site. They have a large product catalogue offered in a number of format types (print, ebook, online learning, packages) with each one possessing a unique ISBN code. From past experience, I know that ISBN codes can be a really important ranking factor. We are currently trying to sort out product page guidelines. The proposed methods are: A single product page for all formats. The user then has the option to select which format they wish to purchase. The page would contain all key descriptors for each format, including: individual ISBN, format, title, price, author, etc. We would then use schema mark-up just to assist search engines with understanding and crawling. BUT we worry that the single page won't rank as well as say an invidual product page with a unique ISBN in the URL (for example: http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470573325.html) Which leads to the next option... Individual URLs for each format. We understand that most e-commerce guidelines state you shouldn't dilute link equity amongst multiple pages with very similar products and descriptions. BUT we want searchers to be able to search by individual ISBN and still find that specific format within the SERPs. This seems to rule out canonicalizing, because we don't prefer one format over the other and still want say the ebook to show up as much as the print version. If anyone has any other options or considerations that we haven't thought about, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, U

Page Speed Factors For SEO
Hey Guys, I have developed a page and optimised it. I have got a dilemma, I have 2 variants of the optimised page I could use. The page is responsive and uses bootstrap from an external CDN. The 2 variants: External CDN - This is adding an an extra request and is delivering the entire framework (not ideal for mobile) I've looked in the node/grunt.js route (+unCSS) to remove redundant CSS, which led me to my next variant. Inline CSS. After doing some grunt.js work I shaved out the redundant code from the framework then added it inline. I will also point out that all assets are optimised, all CSS/JS/HTML is minifed. In terms for score the 1st variant is less than the second, but I believe that most users of the internet already have bootstrap cached due to it being so common. The ultimate question comes down to ranking, I'm not entirely sure where I draw the line between development and SEO (I will also ask in Stack Overflow). Which one would rank better? all other factors being equal.

International SEO Question
_The company I work for has a website www.example.com that ranks very well in English speaking countries - US, UK, CA. For legal reasons, we now need to create www.example.co.uk to be accessible and rank in google.co.uk. Obviously we want this change to be as smooth as possible with little effect on rankings in the UK. We have two options that we're talking through at the moment - Use the hreflang tag on both the .com and the .co.uk to tell Google which site to rank in each country. My worry with this is that we might lose our rankings in the UK as it will be a brand new site with little to no links pointing to it. 301 redirect to the .co.uk based on UK IP addresses. I'm skeptical about this. As a 301 passes most of the link juice, I'm not sure how Google would treat this type of thing - would the .com lose ranking? So my questions are - would we lose ranking in the UK if we use option 1? Would option 2 work? What would you do? Any help is appreciated._

Are there any SEO Tips before killing a website?
Hey guys, My company acquired another company, and after a couple of months we decided to completely kill their website. I'm not finding any info about SEO best practices for this type of situation. From the "switching domains" and "new sites" articles and blog posts I can extrapolate that I should: 301 redirect their home page to ours Look at specific pages with good authority that relate to our pages and 301 them. Look at the strongest backlinks to their site and try to change them to point to our site. Create a 404 page for the rest of their webpages that tells them that we acquired the company (hopefully with a main menu and search bar) Any other suggestions?
