Position of elements in the product page
-
Hello.
As I am a SEO Beginner I wonder if the elements of the page will make a better or worse ranking.
I ask this because my boss asked to change the order of the elements.
He wants to put first the section of Supplies and Accesories, and then additional information.

Does it affect my seo for worse or for better?

As a general rule of thumb the more higher your content is placed in the page source, the more accessible it is for search engines. This ensure they correctly pull the right page info and meta data.
Taking a quick glance of your source code, I definantly think your externalise all JS in a single file to remove the amount of bloated code which currently exists.
Also two more things:
(1) Further optimise your page. More people would search for multi color function printer than a refurbished printer. Make sure you conduct keyword research for all product pages.
(2) Even though this is not as important, none the less reduce the number of h2 & h3 heading tags you are using, particularly the links with the headings in the "supplies and accessories" section as it is not necessary.
Hope this helps,

Hi,
I'm not sure that position of elements within the source code influence rankings. Therefore fill free to make things as you want.
In my experience, the most important think about content in product page is the "short description" what you've called "quick overview" on your website.
In this section i always try to put relevant keywords to help google and users, and for the moment it works well.
So my advice is to focus on on-page optimization rather than elements positions.

Sudden issue: no google cache for any product detail pages and offer schema missing from SERPS
Absolutely no idea what is going on. All of our category / subcategory and other support pages are indexed and cached as normal, but suddenly none of our product pages are cached, and all of the product / offer schema snippets have been dropped from the serps as well (price, review count, average rating etc). When I inspect a product detail page url in GSC, I am either getting errors or it is returned as a soft 404. There have been no recent changes to our website that are obvious culprits. When I request indexing, it works fine for non-product pages, but generates the "Something went wrong

If the issue persists, try again in a few hours" message for any product page submitted. We are not SEO novices. This is an Angular 7 site with a Universal version launched back in October (new site, same domain), and until this strange issue cropped up we'd enjoyed steady improvement of rankings and GSC technical issues. Has anyone seen anything like this? We are seeing rapid deterioration in rankings overnight for all product detail pages due to this issue. A term / page combination that ranked for over a decade in the top 10 lost 10 places overnight... There's just no obvious culprit. Using chrome dev tools to view as googlebot, everything is kosher. No weird redirects, no errors, returns 200 and page loads. Thank You0 -
URL Structure On Site - Currently it's domain/product-name NOT domain/category/product name is this bad?
I have a eCommerce site and the site structure is domain/product-name rather than domain/product-category/product-name Do you think this will have a negative impact SEO Wise? I have seen that some of my individual product pages do get better rankings than my categories.

How come only 2 pages of my 16 page infographic are being crawled by Moz?
Our Infographic titled "What Is Coaching" was officially launched 5 weeks ago. http://whatiscoaching.erickson.edu/ We set up campaigns in Moz & Google Analytics to track its performance. Moz is reporting No organic traffic and is only crawling 2 of the 16 pages we created. (see first and third attachments) Google Analytics is seeing hundreds of some very strange random pages (see second attachment) Both campaigns are tracking the url above. We have no idea where we've gone wrong. Please help!! 16_pages_seen_in_wordpress.png how_google_analytics_sees_pages.png what_moz_sees.png

Does this page crawl well?
I just put up a page that uses an image map to illustrate a national currency note. http://www.antiquebanknotes.com/NationalCurrency/National-Bank-Note-Information.aspx My goal with this page is get results for National Bank Note. But I know image maps are wierd creatures and not good for linking. My question is, will Google index my tooltips and find this page useful and therefore worthy? I think the content is useful for my users but I just don't know if the implementation will work well. This screen will eventually have 5 or 6 notes on it and I don't want to do it the concensus is negative... Thanks for any advice.
