      Lets suppose that i have 10 NICHE products under me. Should i make one site for each product or one site overall.

      If i make 1 site for each product i get several advantages

      1. Domain name has keyword

      2. Title tags etc will be dedicated to one keyword only.

      Disavantage - Backlinking for each domain will become tougher.

      Advantage of one site onl

      1. Good management

      2. Seo / backlinks becomes easier

      3. Blogging to attract traffic becomes easier

      4. Can target a lot of keywords through business blogging

      Disadvantages

      1. Can become messy with unimportant keywords gaining importance.

      SO WHAT DO YOU THINK??? One site per product or One site for all products?

        No.. All the products are related and they wall under the same product category. I guess u are right. By starting separate websites, i can miss reference business as well. As in a customer needing one product, might just need another as well.

          A variety of products can rank well if they are well SEO'd.

          If the products are related I'd put them together on one site. If they were ten totally unrelated products - for example, toe scratchers and garden gnomes, I'd be more inclined to create 10 sites. After all, you'll want to incorporate social media and develop content for your potential customers that is relevant or related to the products you are selling.

              It definitely helped. I was gonna go that with the primary seo strategy. But then i was confused whether i shud have one product specific domain itself. Lets c. Will try this strategy and i think it should work.

                Well,

                You can have a website architecture like:

                domain.com/productnamespecifickeyword.html 😄 - okay you will need to optimize that one 🙂

                and then target productnamespecifickeyword.html with links which have productnamespecifickeyword as anchor text

                I hope that hepled,

                Istvan

                  Thanks a lot for the answer. But if i have multi products in one domain, will all the keywords rank high??? As in i want to rank high for 10 keywords on the same domain, should i change the anchor text during backlinking?

                  What should be the seo strategy in one site multi product cases?

                    Hi Hitesh,

                    I would go for one domain.

                    Creating a lot of mini-sites maybe will help you in short term... BUT if you are going for long term, then you should focus on creating a larger websites. Focus on creating 1 page for each product and target it to the specific page.

                    With less effort you can benefit of link building for one domain. Don't forget to do a keyword mapping.

                    I hope it hepled,

                    Istvan

                      How do you make product pages unique when there are thousands of products?

                      When an ecommerce site has 200 product pages, this is fine. It's time consuming, but I can write 200 unique paragraphs describing the product and it's not an insane amount of work for one person. But when there are 10,000+ product pages... what is the best way for one person to go about this? Risk the page being thin and just bullet point a couple of "need-to-know" info bits, or take the time to prioritise what products could benefit the most from the unique content and get cracking with a paragraph for each? Or do you just forego having truly unique copy on each product page and just aim to optimise the category pages for the longtail? Just wondering how you guys deal with thousands of product pages really. Starting to feel as if I should re-evaluate my strategy and wanted to get some idea on what others are doing... Notes: Product pages already have reviews, helps with adding more unique user-generated content to each page. There's dynamic content e.g. "You may be interested in...", "Related products", etc.

                      Product Colour Variation and Canonicals

                      Hi there, We are currently doing an SEO audit of an ecommerce website and we ar eunsure on the best practice in terms of using canonical link tag for some product variations. An example is that the company has a product with two colour variations: Black and Tan. These are for the same product and have 99% the same content. Within the content of the page the colour is the only thing that changes (along with the meta information and imagery of course). My question is should we choose one product and canonically link back to that one i.e. Black is the main product and we link Tan back to this via a canonical link? Many thanks in advance.

                      How many product subcategories are ok?

                      Let's say I have a sea glass ankle bracelet.  On my site, my main keyword is "Sea Glass Jewelry" and have ranked relatively well for this, but this main page has over 200 products in it. I thought that if the URL has the keywords in it, it would be beneficial.  I also have a section for all my bracelets, so it would be there and then, a more specific ankle bracelets category. So, technically, an ankle bracelet will show up 3x. Sea Glass Jewelry (all products go here) Bracelets (all bracelets go here) Ankle Bracelets (only ankle bracelets) The URL is only attached to the main category so to speak.  If you click the ankle bracelets category, the url will still revert back to the original main category:  seaglassjewelry/sterlinganklebracelet  so I don't believe there is duplicate content. I have had my domain for years and it has ranked well until someone hacked into my site 2 years back.  I have never been able to recover from this loss.  Since then, I have tried to optimize my site, but nothing seems to be working and I just want to make sure that I am not hurting my ranking by doing this. Can someone confirm this is the best way to do it or make a suggestion? Thank you.

                      Selling Products with a similar meta description

                      Wondering if anyone can help when selling similar products with very similar meta description and product descriptions in general. Have around 500 products - a lot of products have around 10-20 products which are very similar only different is sizes and a maybe a few lines of text if that. Is this a problem in search engines? How does other ecommerce stores selling similar products solve this problem...

                      Website Speed Testing Tools

                      I have been experimenting with a number of plugins to speed up the loading of my wordpress site and find that website speed testing tools are all over the map when it comes to results. Even the same tool can produce vastly different results. Does anyone have experience with one that is both dependable and consistent?

                      Sister Sites or Joint Family?

                      A large News Media Group has a Tv Channel, print newspaper, radio channel (for music primarly) and an online website that includes the newspaper content and other original content in different media. My question is, is it better to have independant websites for these different mediums or have all the content on one big website. Currently the newspaper and blog are online as one whereas the radio channel has its own website and the television has its own. So should we maintain sister sites and cross link to each other or have one big happy family under one house? Best, Rishad.
