How Often Can I Change My Meta Titles? (Product Discounts)
-
Hello,
I have an ecommerce website. Due to discounts and sales on most of my products, the discount rates change very often. Some products have %10 discounts for 3 days and then same products might have %50 discounts for another 5 days.
I would like to show these product specific discounts on Meta Titles and Descriptions dynamically. My system will automatically update the Meta Titles once the discount on a product changes.
My question is, how often can I change the Meta Titles? Is changing them (only discount rates = 1word) too often bad for my SEO? What is Goolge's approach on this?
Thank you in advance for all your help.
Best,

Yes, Frequently changed title is not good for Customer and Crawler. As it will result in conflict of interest as cumstomer may see 25% and when it lands on your page it says 10% which is wrong and might you end up with high bounce rate.

Thank you for your message. So you are saying changing title often is bad, right?
-
According me, You should not use exact or range as discount in title. You can use discount related keyword in title like this -
Buy Zula Deste at Discounted Price | Cheapest Prices | gamesatış
OR
Buy Zula Deste with High Discount | Cheapest Prices | gamesatış
OR
Buy Zula Deste | High Discount | Best Price | Gamesatış
OR
What ever you like.and You can write exact discount here - Check image
-
Yes sir, that is correct
-
So you are talking about this type page - https://www.gamesatis.com/zula-desteler which has this title - Buy Zula Deste% 25 Discount | Cheapest Prices | gamesatış. Right?
-
Can you share with me your product page?
-
Thank you for your answer. So basically you are saying that It's a bad idea to change titles often?
I thought about using range but that increases the characters in Title a lot and since the product names are already long, I can't fit all that inside 60-65 characters. (However, my competitors are not really caring for title lengths and they still perform good)
Thank you again,
Best,

I think you should use range in title rather than exact number.

Indexing product attributes in sitemap
Hey Mozzers! I'm battling a few questions about the sitemap for my ecommerce store. Could you help me out? Is it necessary to include your product attributes in the sitemap? I'm not sure why it would matter to have a sitemap that lists everything in the color cherry. Also, if the attributes were included in the sitemap, would that count as duplicate content for the same products to show up in multiple attributes? Is there any benefit to submitting the sitemaps individually? For example, submitting /product-sitemap.xml, /product_brand-sitemap.xml versus just /sitemap.xml? Any other best practices for managing my ecommerce sitemap, or great resources, would be very helpful. Thank you! a1vUz

Title Tags in 2013
For blog posts do you think it is better to use something like "Atlanta Plumbing Company" or "Choosing an Atlanta Plumbing Company" (article title). I have been using the article titles but I think it might be hindering rankings a bit. I use to use the keyword but it seems a bit spammy now. I want to create titles for the readers but rank well too. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Google truncating or altering meta title - affect rankings?
I have a site that the title tag is too long and the title is simply the name of the site (I think they get it from ODP, not sure) Anyway, the rankings for the home page have dropped quite a bit. I'm wondering if the change that Google makes affects rankings (i.e. name of site doesn't have all the keywords).

Robots.txt and robots meta
I have an odd situation. I have a CMS that has a global robots.txt which has the generic User-Agent: *
Technical SEO | | Highland
Allow: / I also have one CMS site that needs to not be indexed ever. I've read in various pages (like http://www.jesterwebster.com/robots-txt-vs-meta-tag-which-has-precedence/22 ) that robots.txt always wins over meta, but I have also read that robots.txt indicates spiderability whereas meta can control indexation. I just want the site to not be indexed. Can I leave the robots.txt as is and still put NOINDEX in the robots meta?0
