Is it worth re-doing SEO for all existent products
-
We have a website and when we started, we had no clue about SEO, nor did we really understand the full extent of CRO amongst other things.
We have slowly learnt that there are many changes that need to happen to our site; however...do we need to re SEO all the content that is already on the website or can we purely start a fresh with the new products we feed through?
The website is:
www.onlineforequine.co.uk if you need to take a look at the kind of platform we are working with.

i noticed the same thing, not only do you need some text content you need it above the fold.

Yes very new, only about 10% of the products have the content they require and this is something we are looking into at the moment. We wanted to know whether we needed to review the entire site and from feedback I think we definately do!
When we started the site our understanding on content, CRO & SEO was non-existent, as time progresses we have discovered how important it is and we are now going to begin reviewing the site...from page one onwards!
Thanks for the feedback about the visual side though!

It is a nice website and I like the logo etc but straight away I can see problems (to name one lack of content), is this a fairly new website?
I think looking at conversion rate optimisation is also a good idea, put down on paper the pages in your conversion funnel and start looking at each one picking elements which effect the users decision.

I always think it is good that your site has problems, because it means you can improve.
Good SEO is an investment, that pays off
-
As we are not from a marketing/SEO/CRO background, we are really struggling on where and why things go wrong. We are fine with META but when it comes down to duplicate page content, too many links etc, we are slightly out of our depth!
Think we may have to get someone on board to help us get things on the right course!
Looks like we are going to be here for a long time.......

i would go thought the site.
i did a quick crawl os a small part of your site and found quite a few problems. i would go though each page and fix up every thing you can find.
It may take you a few hours for each page, but over time it will pay off. Evey bit of link juice you can save, every crawling prioblem has a value in dollars (pounds in your case) that keeps on giving you a return day after day, year after year.

Google says :
you have about 6,490 results - pages indexed
you have about 28,400 results - pages linking to you
Are you happy with that?
Are you happy with your rankings too?
Both Yes? Then no I wouldn't change in big!
Maybe, start/improve small:
find issues on the site - User and SEO based
example?

Discontinued products on ecommerce store
Hi, I have a high number of very-low/zero traffic and zero backlinked product pages that have been discontinued (and wont come back). For these pages we automatically remove them from our website indexes and also removed internal links and then essentially kept the product pages and their urls intact but just added a note saying "no longer available, how about these..." with alternate similar product options. This seems to be the general consensus online for discontinued product pages that have little value. The questions is do I either 404 or noindex these now discontinued pages? What are the pros or cons? Thanks

Ecommerce, SEO & Pagination
Hi I'm trying to workout if there's something wrong with our pagination. We include the rel="next" and "prev" on our pages. When clicking on page 2 on a product page, the URL will show as something like - /lockers#productBeginIndex:30&orderBy:5&pageView:list& However, if I search site:http://www.key.co.uk/en/key/lockers in Google, it seems to find paginated pages: http://www.key.co.uk/en/key/lockers?page=2 I have a feeling something is going wrong here, but haven't worked massively on Pagination before. Can anyone help?

International Domains for SEO
My company is international and we have websites for each country with Country Code Top Level Domains (ccTLD). I am in the US and I am seeing that other countries such as Costa Rica and Germany are ranking above us in search results. I thought Google automatically geo-targeted users by default and therefore I should only get .com or US results. Any idea why other countries would rank above our site?

Google + pages and SEO results...
Hi, Can anyone give me insight into how people are getting away with naming their business by the SEO search term, creating a BS Google + page, then having that page rank high in the search results. I am speaking specifically about the results you get when you Google: "Los Angeles DUI Lawyer". As you can see from my attached screenshot (I'm doing the search in Los Angeles), the FIRST listing is a Google + business. Strangely, the phone number listed doesn't actually take you to a DUI attorney, but rather to some marketing group that never answers the phone. Can anyone give me insight into why Google even allows this? I just find it odd that Google cares so much about the user experience, but have the first result be something completely misleading. I know it sounds like I'm just jealous (which I am, a little), but I find it disheartening that we work so hard on SEO, and someone takes the top spot with an obvious BS page. UupqBU9

Can Bundling Products Help eCommerce SEO?
We currently have over 13,000 products on our site. SeoMoz reports many duplicate pages, which are items that are very similar (different size, application, sku, etc.). Would it be prudent to create a bundled product that has one page, one description, a set of images and a table with add to cart buttons for all of the different products on that page? (called a bundled product in Magento). Then create 301 redirects from all of the individual pages and categories to the relevant new bundled product.

Duplicate Content on Product Pages
I'm getting a lot of duplicate content errors on my ecommerce site www.outdoormegastore.co.uk mainly centered around product pages. The products are completely different in terms of the title, meta data, product descriptions and images (with alt tags)but SEOmoz is still identifying them as duplicates and we've noticed a significant drop in google ranking lately. Admittedly the product descriptions are a little bit thin but I don't understand why the pages would be viewed as duplicates and therefore can be ranked lower? The content is definitely unique too. As an example these three pages have been identified as being duplicates of each other. http://www.outdoormegastore.co.uk/regatta-landtrek-25l-rucksack.html http://www.outdoormegastore.co.uk/canyon-bryce-adult-cycling-helmet-9045.html http://www.outdoormegastore.co.uk/outwell-minnesota-6-carpet-for-green-07-08-tent.html
