E-commerce Customer Reviews/Ratings Solutions?
-
Hi all,
Was wondering if based on your experience you could recommend E-commerce customer reviews/ratings solutions? Or if you prefer to use in-house built solutions.
I currently have proposals from bazaarvoice, Shopzilla and Reevoo.
Cheers

Unless you can find a 3rd party provider who allows you to "white-label" their rating/reviews to your subdomain, there is not much value having it. The review/rating system should work semi-automatic to block any type of spam and you should own the data (i.e. be able to export it).
Unless you can run this on a subdomain, there is zero SEO value for you though....

No problem.
I believe FeeFo moderate the feedback. We have had a good result when responding to any negative feedback.

Thanks Craig, I'll give them a call.
Just one last question; who moderates the comments and reviews? You do or they do?
Cheers

Hi Carols,
I know that for us that is work in progress but can happen. We are using there base system without any direct integration to our site (cost more than anything at the present time)
If you speak with them I am pretty confident they would be able to achieve exactly what you are after.

Hi Craig - Ideally I would like the reviews to be hosted only on my site so that I can benefit from the fresh/unique content.
If you look for the content left by reviewers on your site, you'll see that Google has indexed it on the FeeFo website https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=This+was+a+present%2C+but+of+course+I+had+to+try+it+on+myself...+Nice+quality%2C+so+much+so+that+I+did+briefly+consider+holding+on+to+it.+I+will+be+tempted+to+order+again+for+my+son.+There's+nothing+like+a+luxurious%2C+thick+new+dressing+gown+to+make+you+consider+your+own+worn%2C+threadbare+one%2C&oq=This+was+a+present%2C+but+of+course+I+had+to+try+it+on+myself...+Nice+quality%2C+so+much+so+that+I+did+briefly+consider+holding+on+to+it.+I+will+be+tempted+to+order+again+for+my+son.+There's+nothing+like+a+luxurious%2C+thick+new+dressing+gown+to+make+you+consider+your+own+worn%2C+threadbare+one%2C&sugexp=chrome,mod=0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I have used both Trustpilot, not that hot and now we are using FeeFo which seems to be working well. We have feedback at both service and product level, take a look on www.towelsrus.co.uk.
There technical team are working on a nice solution so as to allow both SEO benefits from reviews and also as we do currently receive back links from there site on reviews, so a double whammy.
There tech team are really helpful and very responsive so a good all round reviews solution.

When performing a full-site server-side A/B test, what best practices should you follow to ensure that you're: not cloaking or at least not being shady only showing Google (and other search engines) the version you want them to see (i.e. not the test pages) Thanks in advance!

Date of Review on productpage - important for SEO?
Hi Have a questions. We have lots of products on the website. A lot have reviews and some do not.
Conversion Rate Optimization | | RetailClicks
Is it harming that review dates (post dates) are older then let's say 1-2 months? Cause we do not have fresh reviews every month. So is it better to then let the dates behind and not show? Or is it better to show 'old' dates. How important are fresh review dates on the website? We have hreview tags around the reviews and dates.0 -
Advanced reporting for e-commerce
Hi Mozzers, We are looking at expanding our analytical reporting for e-commerce. I want to know more about what customers are doing on the website and how we can interact with them. For example, how many customers make X amount of purchases and what their conversion rate is etc. I've looked at More2 and I know Analytics can give me some of this data but want to know more. Anyone have any software ideas? Thanks, Karl

What should a small company with a difficult SEO/SEM challenge do?
Everyone here knows that SEM and SEO "experts" are everywhere. But our company has a particular challenge - our Volusion-hosted e-store's product offering is so wide that it's a huge challenge to make a dent in our search engine placement. In our earliest days, one SEM "pioneer" company issued us a refund after realizing they couldn't do anything to affect our placement. The problem is that the revenue from any one particular keyword term doesn't return enough sales to make the effort worthwhile - sales are scattered allover the product spectrum. Does anyone have any experience with this particular challenge? What would be considered a realistic monthly budget - given that the business itself is quite small? I don't know what the etiquette on Moz is but YES I am looking to engage a company to help us out.

Checkout abandonment fix w/ Shopify?
Hey everybody. I run a digital product site on Shopify. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with on page fixes for checkout abandonment? On my site... 31% of people add to cart & never get to checkout. 66% of people reaching checkout abandon their checkouts. Obviously a lot of sales are flying out the window. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Google Merchant/ Googlebase Images at top of SERPS
Hi We are based in the UK and the new merchant rules have recently been applied here. We offer free shipping but now most of our click throughs come from the images at the top of the SERPS that simply give an image and a price. The prices do not include shipping and there's no indication to the user that shipping is included. Hence our conversion rate from PPC is way down. Is there any way to counter this or do we just need to go back to charging for shipping? Thanks!

Can using the Google Keywords tool and/or SEOmoz cause problems for my company's IP address?
I just started with a company a few weeks back, working on-site doing SEO work. I've been using SEOmoz as well as Google Adwords' Keywords tool. I just got a message from one of our reps saying that people at the office (and this is a huge office) have reported tons of CAPTCHAs being thrown up frequently. I told them I had been running searches with Google Keywords tool and SEOmoz, but would that really cause that much of a problem? Is there anything I can do in order to fix this, some keyword finders that won't get me in trouble, etc.?

Youtube Adwords click/visit discrepancy
We started a Youtube ad campaign. Over 2 days we got 60 clicks. However on our site we only measured 19 clicks. We used Kissmetrics to do the measurement. We're trying to figure out if the problem is on our end, or whether people are clicking but then closing the tab before the Kissmetrics JS loads. We're going to implement adwords conversion tracking to get a second measurement. But I was wondering if anyone else has experienced big gaps in how many people click a Youtube ad and how many actually visit the site. We got about 40 people who viewed the video 100%. I'm hoping bots aren't an issue with Youtube ads.
