Name Some Ecommerce Sites That NAIL Blogging
-
Have a few favorites but would like to get some other people's opinions on some ecommerce sites that are doing blogging RIGHT.
Who is supporting their online marketing with an amazing blog?
One of my favorites is Backcountry.com's The Goat (http://thegoat.backcountry.com/)
Let me know!

Totally agree. It looks like they even post multiple times per day. With that kind of content generation they make sure they are finding the pieces that connect with their customers.

Yes. One of the things that is very illuminating is that they have 27 writers for the blog. I used this example to try to convince my own company to not make the blog the realm of just one person, but to open it up to a team of people. This gets a wider variety of content, more content and less writing for each person. With 27 writers, they can post once a week yet each writer is only having to write 2 blog posts a year. I'd say that's pretty manageable!

Nice suggestion, thanks! Their blog is impressive and it looks like they have the whole company bought into contributing.
Thanks!

I'm not sure that they count because their really an airline, but they do a lot of online selling and that's Southwest Airlines. Their blog is one of the best http://www.blogsouthwest.com/ - I just think it's a great model for a business blog. I think they are getting upwards of 200K visitors a month too, pretty amazing.

Is it okay to delete old blog posts?
Hi All, I'm doing some SEO work on an entertainment (movies/tv/gaming) blog that started in 2011. Their recent articles have gained some popularity due to improved content and marketing, but there is some old stuff from the early days that was poorly written and gets virtually no traffic. These are mostly old news pieces. Out of approximately 10,000 articles, about 1,000 are receiving the lions share of the traffic. I feel like their good content is getting bogged down in a sea of crap. Would there be any harm in deleting some of those old posts? Is there a best practice for culling content? Thanks!

How do I stop someone from hijacking my site?
I had lost a lot of search engine rankings & it almost put me out of business. I worked a lot on the site in April and in May my sales rebounded 37%+ almost back to where they typically are. I have blamed Panda and saw another Panda update in May and my traffic is declining again. Today I happened to decide to check what pages were being indexed and I also noticed that when I published an update this morning it said the page "<cite class="_Zd">www.cheaptubes.com/index2.asp</cite>" exists on the destination server but not in current site and it asked if I wanted to delete it. I said no at the time but am going to delete it right after this question. I went to google & put "site:cheaptubes.com" into the search. My website has about 50 pages but google has "About 2,160 results" @ 10X per page. The first four pages are mostly my pages but I noticed even on the first page, 3rd result was for Nike shoes and it isn't my site. Someone has hacked my site and put up over 21,000 pages! That must be the real reason behind my website problems, right? How do I stop this from happening again? Is this having the negative effect that I fear it is?

How many categories should you have within a blog / Wordpress Site for SEO?
Hi Guys I am just wondering whether or not for SEO purposes it is better to have a small number of categories for your blog posts to fit into as opposed to numerous ones. The reason I ask is that I have one site which is fairly new to the search engines - 8 months old which has 7 general categories within the blog for instance "rail contractors", "railway construction" "airport construction" etc I have another site which is 10 years old which has built up 25 different types of categories for instance brand design, brand development, brand management (i guess you could put all these under 1 category "branding"? We've been writing lots of press for both sites... yet the younger site is getting more coverage on Google page 1. Would this be because the blogs / press are more concentrated under a specific category as opposed to being spread thinly throughout the site? Any help would be appreciated. Debs 🙂

Content being copied from our product page hurting our site overall?
On our product pages, he have short descriptions and some bulleted lists. Resellers of our products, and many other sites who are not resellers are copying this content, often verbatim. While I'm not as concerned for the product pages themselves as we're hoping the category pages will rank, does this duplication of our content hurt our site overall? FWIW, our brand name is in our domain and often also shown on these sites that copy the content.
