Recommendations for Magento hosting
-
Any recommendations for hosting companies in the UK to host a large-ish Magento site?
Also is it worthwhile going after someone who specialises in Magento hosting or not?
Don't really want to go down a dedicated server root due to cost.
Hints, tips and advice much appreciated
Thank you in advance

HI,
If it is a largish shop I would probably go for a Magento hosting partner / specialist. Magento is a resource hog and specialists will have tweaked certain settings in the db / php / server setup to address magento specific performance issues. Costs a bit more but you can rest easy that it is setup the way it should be. Have heard good comments about nexcess but haven't any direct experience with them....

Found the link to TSO's magento hosting... https://www.tsohost.com/web-hosting/magento-hosting

Although I haven't personally used these guys, I hear TSO is good. Plus I think they even have a special Magento hosting plan.
Can you go with a VPS? We're not on Magento but are using Godaddy's (actually from a reseller) servers and it's been great.

Proper URL Structure. Feedback on Vendors Recommendation
Urgent! We're doing a site redesign and our vendor recommended new url structure as follows: website.com/folder/word1word2word3. Our current structure is website.com/word1-word2 They said that from SEO perspective, it doesn't make a difference if there are dashes between words or not and Google can read either URL. Is that true? I need experts to weigh on the above, as well as SEO implications if we were to implement their suggestion.

Is it OK to put a Blog Post and a Page within the same folder on a Wordpress hosted website?
Our education company website (hosted on wordpress) has evolved into having content on key topics distributed across both blog posts and pages. For example, "top-pharmaceutical-companies" lends itself to being published as a page. However other content "top-pharmaceutical-companies-usa-2016" lends itself to being published as a blog post as it's more temporal in nature. Now we'd like to establish topical domain relevance for the root keyword "pharmaceutical companies" and build a folder www./ourcompany/pharmaceutical-companies/ But when we look through our blog content, we notice we have "Blog Posts" that would be an excellent fit for certain folders within our "Page" url structure. So would it be OK to amend these blogs post urls addresses to place them within the folder structure of the pages.

Magento Canonical & Default Robots Settings
Hello! I'm working with Magento 1.9 for an eCommerce site with several hundred products. Currently I understand it is best practices to use the Canonical tag, however I also have my default robots set to "Index, Follow". Will this cause an issue having product pages set to index, follow but also having a canonical tag included? What are some best practices regarding Magento default robots & canonical tags? Any help is appreciated.

Should I host my Ecommerce Software in a Subdomain?
We have a single consumer product that we sell through traditional retailers and our website. We have used an ecommerce provider for our website since it's inception 6 years ago. The problem I am facing is website structure. Our domain points to our ecommerce store, and therefore all content pages are created through the ecommerce platform. However, we can't really do a whole lot in terms of structuring URL's or sub domains. Basically, any content created is given an automatically created URL, and can only be fit in a pre-determined category. There is no way to use sub categories. Are we better off for use and site structure to host the ecommerce portion of the site in a subdomain, such as store.domain.com, and then manually creating all of our content and other pages? I look at nest.com as sort of template for that. They too only have a few products, so a full ecommerce design isn't really necessary. Are we better off for SEO and ease of use to handle that separately from our overall website structure? Thanks for any help.

Recommended Wordpress themes for great SEO
Hi there, I'm trying to decide which theme to use. My main concern is if the theme has been built using a stable framework to ensure plugin compatibility for SEO. Also a general question, does the homepage need to have a certain amount of text content for SEO, or can other pages be SEO optimised with text / keyword? Some of the nicer themes seem to have a sparce text to image ratio on the homepage. I quite like this as an initial 'welcome' but worry this isn't great for SEO. Any suggested themes / advice will be welcome. Thanks

Is there a recommended character limit for alt text tags?
I've searched around for a maximum number of characters to use when writing alt tags, but not seeing anything more than "don't keyword stuff." Is there a recommended number of characters?
