What Is The Best Way To Categorize 3 Different Top Level Categories Each With 20 Sub Categories
-
Hello,
We are trying to figure out the best way to categorize our app review website. We have 3 platforms, iPhone, iPad and Android and each platform has several sub categories and numerous apps subcategories totaling around 50 to 60 categories for each platform.
Any suggestions how to do this properly?
thank you
Mike

Nakul,
we are going with the platform for SEO key rich urls, for example:
iphone/app/books, ipad/applications/books, android/apps/books/ and this would go for the 30+ additional categories for each device, which is primarily the same as the original App Stores categorization.
We are using WordPress, Yoast plugin for SEO, but have just now begun to focus on a correct taxonomy that makes sense to users as well as Google, showing a theme across our content.
I would love to use the urls: iphone/apps/books, ipad/apps/books, and android/apps/books/ but I am not sure how to do this technically in WordPress, since you can only have 1 original url for any category, tag, post or page.
Also, do you have any suggestions for tools to query what our visitors are searching for on our site?
thank you
Mike

Interesting question, there are obviously 2 scenarios.
1. Device Category (iPhone/iPad/Android) > Games (Sub Categories)
or
2. Games Category > Device iPhone/iPad/Android
What platform are you using for your website ? Or is this custom ? I'd suggest you do some sort of an analysis and see how users perform searches and prefer to navigate sites like yours. In either case, provide both ways of navigating if you can. Survey a group of audience if you can and get real insight, again...if you can.

For a real estate website, is a different mobile site warranted vs a responsive site?
I researched the major real estate websites: Zillow, Trulia, Remax, Keller Williams, Century 21, etc. They all have a separate mobile site and not a responsive one. The client wants it to be easy to search for properties from a smartphone. Is it possible to get a responsive version of a real estate website on a smartphone?

Best way to handle Spanish/English WEBSITE
Hey guys, How are you doing? I have a website (www.aceromart.com ) in which the primary language is Spanish. The company is oriented toward the Mexican Audience. However, recently we are dealing with many U.S companies. Also, we want to be included in the Yahoo Directory and several other directories which demand a U.S version of the website. So i want to have a U.S version of the website. My ecommerce is based in the NETWORK Solutions platform and has around 1,000 products and pages. What is the best way to include an English version of the website. Ive seen some pages using the Google traslate tool, which only traslates the text. Hope to hear some of your ideas, Regards,

Searching for BEST e-Commerce Multilanguage Platform, Need Advice
I have 2 online store in Canada. Both are selling One bilingual (English&french) Filtration Montreal and a unilinguale store Furnace Filters Canada Both are offering the same products at the same price for Canadian. We work hard to rank on Google.ca because we only sell and ship to Canada. The platform of Filtration Montreal is very basic and limited. For example, the url structure make it very hard to rank on Google.ca This platform is very not SEO friendly with url like: http://www.filtrationmontreal.com/en/product/honeywell-genuine-filter-95/pack-of-5-genuine-honeywell-furnace-filters-20x20x5-601.html The only good thing about this platform, is the multilingual option. The customer can shop in french or English. I would like to move that store to a new platform where I can create a multilingual online store. Do you have sugestions? Furnace Filters Canada is on BigCommerce. I find it SEO friendly. Using SEOmoz tools and new to SEO, high competitive keywords like: furnace filters, furnace filter are ranking on 3rd rank in Google.ca fist page! This site is getting more & more visitors every months. The only frustrating thing is the English only version of the stores to customers. QUESTIONS: What will be the SEO impact if I'm moving Furnace Filters Canada to a new platform? Do you have suggestions in finding the perfect multilanguage e-Commerce platform? Andrew Bleakley suggest Ashop. Anybody using Ashop? How about a eCommerce platform that can manage my 2 stores at the same time. REMEMBER, we sell and ship to Canada only. Thank you for your help and support. BigBlaze
