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.

Duplicate content issue with Wordpress tags?
Would Google really discount duplicate content created by Wordpress tags? I find it hard to believe considering tags are on and indexed by default and the vast majority of users would not know to deindex them . . .

Geotargeting by IP and SEO
Hi, Part of our site displays localized results based on the user's IP (we get the zipcode based on IP). For example a user in NY would get a list of NY based stores, while a user in CA would get a list of CA based stores. So if CA Googlebot comes to our site, it will get results based on Mountain View CA. Given the pages are generated based on your zip, I'm not sure how we'd indicate to Google that we have results for lots of locations and not just the Googlebot IP locations. (users can change their zipcode, but by default we use geolocation). Our landing pages contain localized content and unique urls with the zipcode etc, but it isn't clear how Google will find results for KY etc.

301 Redirects - SEO Benefit?
Hello, Years ago, our company started out as a Yahoo store. We've since moved onto another website with its own shopping cart but since the Yahoo store is almost 10 years old, there's a lot of history there and it still exists with the occasional order. We currently use it for reputation management purposes with links to our real ecommerce site but we're thinking of just redirecting the Yahoo store to our ecommerce site. Is there any SEO benefit in doing this? We were also kind of penalized by Panda. Would this help us out at all (the descriptions on both sites could be considered duplicate content).
