Best way to handle with a Multiple Langue Issue
-
Howdy everyone!
I am having trouble with deciding on how to solve a Multiple Language Issue. I went to several consultants here in Mexico, but i am not totally convinced on their solution. So i am hoping to hear excellent advice (as always) here on the SEOMOZ Forum.
I have a website, (www.aceromart.com) an ecommerce site in which to sell materials for the construction industry. My main market is in Mexico, therefore the website is in Spanish. However, the export sales are increasing and some of the suppliers are from USA.
I need to include the English version on my website, however i dont know how to do this.
- The option that they propose is to create an entirely different website with another domain. Entirely in English that links to my existing website.
I did not like this at all. Mainly because i would not like to change the brand name or anything. I would like to include the English version within my website. Is it okay, if treat it as a folder withing my website. I.E www.aceromart.com/english/content?
What is the best way to do this according to your experience.
Best Regards, thanks for your help.

what Moosa says is right, you can't have more domain for the same Ecommerce, you must have only one domain with a cms multi language.
You can see an example with our works
Always the same domain, but you can change the navigation language with one click.
If you have need a ica send you a little documentation about this cms in .net

I don’t see any need of another website targeting another location... absolutely no need of it! You can go with the same website and handle the English version either in subdirectory or sub domain.
or
You can also set the IP tracking so if someone is coming to your website from other parts of the world then Mexico they will see the English version of it and if people are coming from Mexico they will see the Spanish version of it...
Hope this helps!

By default, index.html is being loaded, but this is the only index.html I have in the folder. And it looks like the crawler sees two different pages with different DA...

Magento Rewrite Issue
Moz's Crawler has thrown up a bunch of crawl issue for my site.The site is a magento based site and I recently updated the themes so some routes may have have become redundant. Moz has identified 289 pages with Temporary Redirect. I thought magento managed the redirects if I set the "Auto-redirect to Base URL" to Yes(301 Moved permanently). But this is enabled on my store and I still get the errors. The only thing I could think of was to add a Robots.txt and handle the redirection of these links from here. But handling redirection for 289 links is no mean task. I was looking for any ideas that could fix this without me manually doing this .

Redirects - How Best to do this ?
Hi I am looking to close Website A which has many pages. I would like to keep the home page and add some great content to it with a link pointing to Website B. As for all the other pages excluding the home page , how is it best to approach them on Website A. Should I redirect them all to the home page of Website A which will tell Google thoose Pages are no longer needed and to prevent the visitors from seeing a 404? My Main aim here is to not lose any visitors to Website A by sending them to Website B but also to hopefully pass any Page strength from Website A to Website B Thanks Adam
