Hi Atul,
Just wanted to let you know that the questions in Pro are indexed and visible in Google right away. Right now, this post ranks #9 for that domain name on Google, so if your client searches their domain name they might find this post.

Atul,
in long term you can find duplicate content if you don't prevent it. (just because there might be some path problem).
For ex.
you have product A that can be reached through Cat. A or Cat. B, so you will have two paths:
example.com/catA/prodA
example.com/catB/prodA
Which will be the same product reached from two pages -> two different URls with same content -> duplicate content
Regarding Frames:
Currently you have 1 URL because of the frames.
If you would go for 1 page for each product, then you could optimize better the content for the specific keywords.

Thanks a lot for such useful suggestions.
" It is a lot healthier to have a site that can be crawled more easily by the search engines."
Do you mean that search spiders won't crawl the site easily becaise of spiders ?
Also, where do you find duplicate content on the site.

Hi Atul,
First of all I would advice to get rid of frames. It is a lot healthier to have a site that can be crawled more easily by the search engines.
2nd: you miss a lot of on-page optimization elements.
3rd: if the website is going to grow in products over time, you should think about information architecture. Go check in advance if you can get duplicate content issues because of multiple paths that can reach 1 product, and try to eliminate it. (p.s. advice - check for a faceted navigation at the products, maybe it will help you out)
4th: don't forget that content is king. Check for the keywords which you are targeting, create a keyword mapping, then on the most important pages/keywords write awesome content! And I mean the best you can deliver. This way you will give a boost from content.
5th: custom 404 pages, sitemaps...
Basically you still have a lot to do on the website.
Good luck with it!
I hope it helped,
Istvan

301 or Keep 2 Chocolate Best Sellers SEO?
Hi All, So we have two best selling organic chocolates that are very similar. http://www.santabarbarachocolate.com/bulk-organic-dark-chocolate-72-without-soy-lecithin/ and http://www.santabarbarachocolate.com/bulk-organic-dark-chocolate-72-without-soy-lecithin/ Because we are a small company it would be ideal to offer only one of these chocolates due to the cost of making it from the raw cacao. This is the question: From a SEO page rank perspective, do we get better rank by 301 redirecting one chocolate to the other thereby generating more traffic through traffic consolidation to one chocolate. Or do we get better SEO rank by having two chocolates on the site that both get clicks with different content? Basically it is a question of divided forces. Thanks for your help, Jason

How defined does the anchor text need to be for a domain url?
Ok, I'm looking to clean up my domain with irrelevant Anchor text linking to specific URL's. Whether, it's my root domain or a particular product URL. I'm finding a wide variety of terms (anchor text) pointing to my homepage, category and finally my product pages. Example, the Anchor text "Paragon Print Systems" is pointing to my homepage "barcodefactory.com" does this hurt my homepage enough to either have the link/anchor text removed from linking to my homepage? thanks much!, Warren

Keeping SEO benefit of an old URL by changing content
We have a blog written in Oct 2012 that accounts for 30-40% of our traffic (174K pageviews per year/80% bounce rate). We are considering updating the content but are concerned that it will fall off the search engine's map if the content is updated to include information that is not exactly the same, but relevant. The URL would be the same and the original blog content would be shortened with a link to the full blog. The new content would include other FDA products under investigation. Here is the blog: http://myadvocates.com/blog/fda-issues-warning-about-so-called-brain-supplement-prevagen

Homepage SEO: Does Text Content Help Traffic?
Hi Mozzers! My employers homepage (www.swarovski.com) is - amongst other problems we're about to fix - very thin (not to say empty!) in text content. If we were to put relevant text on the next version of the page, would that be beneficial in terms of traffic to that page? Thanks and cheers, Chris

SEO Content Revolution Question
I was wondering if articles written about questions people are asking will help my website rank better. For example let's say I wrote an article answering the query, "What Hair Dye Does Angela Merkel Use?" or, "Is Hillary Clinton Thinking of Running for President," and they rank well on google, and in turn they get viewed a lot by searchers because it answers their queries. Would this help my website as whole start ranking better? Thanks!

Alt Tags On "VIEW INVENTORY" Button
I have an E-commerce site that sells events, and tickets. By default it shows 10 events per page, each event with its own "View Inventory Button" which leads a customer to a list of tickets for that particular event. My question is that by default ea event page has 10 listings all with View Inventory buttons, should I just remove ALL alt tags? For example if it was football game with Detroit lions, and the Detroit lions page shows 10 events by default, should each of my View tickets buttons say EX. "Buy Lions tickets"? I am so confused, i have an understanding of how and what alt tags do, but I am afraid to "over optimize the pages? I am just not sure how many times to have this alt tag visible with keywords in them, as the rest of the page is optimized in my descriptions and I would want to avoid keyword stuffing. Currently all that I can see how is "view tickets" view tickets" 10times as alt tags. Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!!! This was a response in the past from someone in the forums 'Depending what language/CMS your website is built on, you will be able to insert a bit of code that dynamically creates a suitable alt tag depending on the product. So whatever page/product template currently instructs the alt tag to be 'buy now', would instead instruct a dynamic name to be generated along the format of 'buy button for"
