Changing meta title dynamically e.g. with number of reviews in title. Is this a problem?
-
I would like to put the number of reviews in the meta title of a product page.
I noticed that tripadvisor for example does the same. However I read in some places that people encountered problems with frequent title tag changes.
Did you ever encounter problems by just changing numbers in title tag?
Do you think it is really a problem if just the number of the reviews changes?what about putting number of reviews in the meta description instead?

Moosa, Martjin thanks a lot for your feedback.
So I will give it a try.

I absolutely agree with Moosa, used to do this before on a site where people could review services and it worked pretty well for us. As he already said, you don't violate any of the search engine guidelines as these are just your own titles representing the content of the page(s).

I believe if you are changing the title tag to enhance user experience then you should probably go for it and Google will also find it positive!
I believe adding number of reviews encourages people to click and chances are that the %age of CTR will increase!
I think you should go for it and this is because it does not really break any search engine guidelines and on the other hand it helps increases user experiences.
just my cents!

The website is made with Wordpress. I have already tried to solve this problem with 301 redirect but, as i supposed, it didn't work.
I think that is a problem related to Wordpress URL in Wordpress settings (Image 2). However i would like to know if anybody had the same problem or if there are other possibile causes. Thank you in advance! zDVL0pj aB7MeGe0 -
Changing 301s or using 302s after a relaunch?
We are doing a relaunch and changing nearly every URL. Since the list of redirects is > 5.000 we might have some mistakes we want to change later (i.e. having a 301 to a directory but finding a single page later that fits its purpose better). Can I change the 301 later and will seachengines get that? Can I use 302s for a week or two until I'm sure about my redirects and only than do propper 301s?

Parallax and Title Tags
I've noticed an issue with our site, which uses parallax on multiple pages. Here is an example: If you search for About SQL Sentry, you get the correct title tag and description If you search for SQL Sentry Careers (which is on the about us page) it appears that Google has made up a title tag and description for it. Is there any way to force a separate title tag for a part of a parallax page?

E-Commerce Multilanguage - Better on Subdomains?
Hi, We have an e-commerce store in English and Spanish - same products. URLs differ like this: ENGLISH:
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | bjs2010
www.mydomain.com/en/manufacturer-sku-productnameinenglish.html SPANISH:
www.mydomain.com/es/manufacturer-sku-productnameinspanish.html All content on pages is translated, e.g, H1, Titles, keywords, descriptions and site content itself is in the language displayed. Is there a risk of similar or near dupe content here in the eyes of the big G? Would it be worth implementing different languages on subdomains or completely different domains? thank you B0 -

Changing Site URLs
I am working on a new client that hasn't implemented any SEO previously. The site has terrible url nomenclature and I am wondering if it is worth it to try and change it. Will I lose rankings? What is the best url naming structure? Here's the website http://www.formica.com/en/home/TradeLanding.aspx. (I am only working on the North America site.) Thanks!
