.ca and international SEO
-
So we are building out on some of our Ecommerce sites, and expanding and adding .ca domains to our already established .com. What techniques have you used to generate success in similar launches to this one. I will reply to each response with thoughts and questions
Enjoy the discussion

Interesting! This is a nice way to funnel traffic that we have already captured into our .ca domains, as well as build that interlinking between sites. Really want to capture that new Canadian market (For our e com Canada has some different part numbers as well as a different selection of products available to them) Though i am still considering how to approach this, trying to avoid having much of the duplicate content across international pages.

I actually noticed nordictrack just did this. If you go to nordictrack.com you can find links to their international sites at .ca and .co.uk as well I believe. I think you would want to do something similar. Announce you have a .ca for canadian customers. I would also include a link to the .ca site on each product page. So instead of just a buy now button, put a text link below it saying"Canadian customer? Click here for our Canadian store!" or something like that.

Need Definitive Source on Wordpress SEO
I am a longtime practitioner of classic asp. I build sites with SEO built-in and administer largely to sites I have built. I have, up til now, had a policy of not working (SEO) on Wordpress projects because - I don't presently build Wordpress sites Am unfamiliar with how SEO could be implemented on CMS I have a long time client who wants me to do contract SEO work on various Wordpress sites on his servers. Can someone point me to a definitive source on the latest methods for Wordpress SEO. I am very proficient in SEO with conventional web sites - I just need to know how to implement it in Wordpress. I don't see how plug-ins can implement serious SEO, but my mind is open.

Listing multiple locations on Facebook for local business and top platforms for local SEO
What is the easiest way to register multiple locations for a business to Facebook local? I'm sure we've all had the challenge of multiple local business listings for a client. The set up is just busy work, but the verification can be an issue with some busier or less organized locations. I'm interested to see if anyone has a more eloquent solution to achieve this. I also have a second question as far as local listings go - how would you rank the most influential local listing platforms? Thanks, Bill

Does Server Speed Effect SEO Rankings?
I was told by a website developer that Google ranks sites higher if they are hosted on faster servers. Is this true? For example my site is currently limited because it is a Quick Shopping Cart site hosted by Godaddy. He said that if I hosted my research chemical site with a different company with faster servers I could get better ranking immediately. I linked to my site. I think it loads ok. However Godaddy probably isn't the fastest service around.
