What is the most SEO friendly shopping cart for wordpress?
-
I'm using Thesis Theme. I know load time is important and will continue to be a bigger deal as time goes on. Any advice would be much appreciated!!

They only have between 30-50 products (water filters systems and replacement filters) that don't need to be changed out very often. Yes it definitely needs to be user friendly as well as SEO friendly. I'm new to shopping carts so this is a learning experience for me too.
I will look at foxycart. Thanks!

Don't forget to think about maintenance friendly and user friendly. It doesn't matter if you have the best SEO out there if people come to your site and the shopping cart software is so confusing they never order, or if the backend doesn't suit your needs.
I use Foxycart with Wordpress and the Thesis theme, and have outgrown it a bit but don't have the time to do an overhaul right now. For me, shipping is a big deal (an order can include a three foot long piece of balsa wood and 20 pounds of ball bearings in the same order). What may work for one person may not work for another, depending on their needs.
Can you give us a little information about how many products you have, and if you would like any advice about other features or just SEO?

I'm not sure what the best is, but I didn't really like WP E-Commerce.

SEO Elements for Canonicalized URLs?
I am helping a client with SEO for their ecommerce store. They have around 65 products, but close to 500 URLs all for those same products. Basically they have a bit of an index bloat problem but long story short restructuring was too much of a lift for them, so I got them set up with a canonical URL strategy to ensure all duplicate pages point to one "main" product page. Getting to the point: They also need an on-page overhaul. I've created keyword optimized titles, metas, H1s, etc. for each product. Do these elements need to be added to every single one of the 450+ product pages OR do I only need to add them to the 65 "main" product pages that everything else is pointing to, since that will ultimately be the page that gets crawled?

seo moz crawl diagnosis
Hi seomozzers, We are creating a brand new website for a client and I would like to run an seo moz crawl to fix what has been done wrong. So my question is it ok to run an SEO moz crawl with a dev URL? Are final URLs and dev URLs will give me the same results or not? Basically, Should I wait for getting the final URL or is it ok to run a crawl under a dev URL such as www.dev2.example.com or http://183.2564.2864? Thank you 🙂

EzineArticles WordPress Plugin
Any thoughts on the EzineArticles plugin for WordPress? I read that it provides "the ability to simultaneously publish new posts to the web and submit them as articles to EzineArticles.com" Could this lead to duplicate content penalties?

SEO Developers
I have a team of inexperienced SEO developers and the argument we continually have is that its a marketing role - however most of it is technical, no view state, no js, page load time, csssprite, metatags, frequency of updates to server, duplicate content via coding methodology, lioading content prior to ads, not spidering ads (IT says impossible yet google says required) etc. I looked at your referrals for developers and couldnt find any that recognized SEO as part of their skill set - do you believe tehre aer developers that specialize in this? Thanks, Michelle
