Which kind of testimonials increase more the conversion rate of and e-commerce website?

In an e-commerce website is it better to have:
a) Email of happy customers.
b) Reviews of customers ad hoc.
c) VIPs that use the product in sale in the website.Which of these from your direct experience works better?

Many thanks in advance,

Many Thanks Irving.
Do you have a couple of example of e-commerce that use that with microformatting? Just to understand what are the best practices in doing that.

I agree, i would ask the company if they have a plug in or some work around. if this CMS doesn't support it, maybe it makes sense to look at a CMS that is more up to date
reviews are in (also microformatting rich snippets will show the stars in search results) - testimonials often seem fake, anyone can write and post anything on their site. with reviews you can see where it is coming from so lends credibility.

Hi Johnny4B, thank you for your advice.
Unfortunately the e-commerce CMS does not support the product review and we have no budget for let the deveolper to add that functionality.
Do you know some "review website" in which every e-commerce should invest energy/time/money to be in?
Many thanks again.

Why not product reviews, used by almost every e-commerce website .... And used by me when I shop online
I imagine they are without doubt the most powerful sort of review on an e-commerce website, assuming of course they are good reviews

Is there a quick and easy way to check a website to see which outbound links open in the browser window and not in a new window?
I have just come across a few blogs on a website that have outbound links that open in the browser window (and therefore direct people off site to these links) (there are also other outbound links that open in a new window)- is there a quick and easy way to check which outbounds links open in a new window and which open in the browser window? Much obliged Liam

Blog.website.com or website.com/blog
Hello, I have a question, in some moz guidelines you can read website.com/blog is better/more recommended than blog.website.com. But when you look at the domain authority you see no difference. blog.website.com gets exact the same domain authority as website.com. So can somebody explain why website.com/blog is really better than blog.website.com? Or is there no difference? Thank you verry much

Can We Publish Duplicate Content on Multi Regional Website / Blogs?
Today, I was reading Google's official article on Multi Regional website and use of duplicate content. Right now, We are working on 4 different blogs for following regions. And, We're writing unique content for each blog. But, I am thinking to use one content / subject for all 4 region blogs. USA: http://www.bannerbuzz.com/blog/ UK: http://www.bannerbuzz.co.uk/blog/ AUS: http://www.bannerbuzz.com.au/blog/ CA: http://www.bannerbuzz.ca/blog/ Let me give you very clear ideas on it. Recently, We have published one article on USA website. http://www.bannerbuzz.com/blog/choosing-the-right-banner-for-your-advertisement/ And, We want to publish this article / blog on UK, AUS & CA blog without making any changes. I have read following paragraph on Google's official guidelines and It's inspire me to make it happen. Which is best solution for it? Websites that provide content for different regions and in different languages sometimes create content that is the same or similar but available on different URLs. This is generally not a problem as long as the content is for different users in different countries. While we strongly recommend that you provide unique content for each different group of users, we understand that this may not always be possible. There is generally no need to "hide" the duplicates by disallowing crawling in a robots.txt file or by using a "noindex" robots meta tag. However, if you're providing the same content to the same users on different URLs (for instance, if both example.de/ and example.com/de/ show German language content for users in Germany), you should pick a preferred version and redirect (or use the rel=canonical link element) appropriately. In addition, you should follow the guidelines on rel-alternate-hreflang to make sure that the correct language or regional URL is served to searchers.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this might be (besides the obvious colors/theme of the website)? Thanks!!

Meta descriptions and conversion rates
Hi, does there exist any good data on the correlation between the meta description and having the same text in the body text (as pre-ample in bold, for instance) and conversion rates?

Using testimonials to build quality content
I don't see a lot of talk on here about using testimonials to build good content. From what I have seen, the search engines love client testimonials. I haven't found a good service provider for this yet. I'm thinking something combined with Twitter or FB that also allows you to show the content on your site would be great. Can anyone recommend a service like this? I'm checking out a service called, "Quick Vouch" but I haven't tested it yet.
