How is IT handling multi-page search results for this url?
-
How is the IT team handling multi-page results? The URL is the same - with out any parameters, but the content changes. Is this best way to handle it from an SEO perspective?

OK, I see what you mean now. I am not sure how they are doing that. You would normally see that if the content of the page was output through an iframe but I couldn't find one in the source code. It's possible it is something OpenCart is doing
It's not a great idea from a user experience basis really, but search engines are not going to read the URL in the address bar. They will use the links that are in the pagination links at the bottom. For example, this is page 2:
http://www.manhattanfruitier.com/index.php?route=product/category/shopall_Data&osc=0&page=2
So that is what will be indexed.

Thanks. What I mean is if you scroll to the bottom of the page and click the link to page2 or 3, it is the same URL with no parameter.

Hi,
I'm not sure what you mean on this as every time I refresh the page you linked to I get the same page content. It could be that though from time to time the page content changes. That will be produced by an extension of some sort for the OpenCart shopping system being used on this site. For example: http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&extension_id=5490
Is this the best way to handle it from an SEO perspective? If it was every page on your site then I would say yes, but I would guess this only affects the home page and in that case it doesn't really matter. If anything it may help a little because the search engines will see the content changed every time they visit that page.
I hope that helps.
Peter

My client is using a mobile template for their local pages and the Google search console is reporting thousands of duplicate titles/meta descriptions
So my client has 2000+ different store locations. Each location has the standard desktop location and my client opted for a corresponding mobile template for each location. Now the Google search console is reporting thousands of duplicate titles/meta descriptions. However this is only because the mobile template and desktop store pages are using the exact same title/meta description tag. Is Google penalizing my client for this? Would it be worth it to update the mobile template title/meta description tags?

Translating Page Titles & Page Descriptions
I am working on a site that will be published in the original English, with localized versions in French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. All the versions will use the English information architecture. As part of the process, we will be translating the page the titles and page descriptions. Translation quality will be outstanding. The client is a translation company. Each version will get at least four pairs of eyes including expert translators, editors, QA experts and proofreaders. My question is what special SEO instructions should be issued to translators re: the page titles and page descriptions. (We have to presume the translators know nothing about SEO.) I was thinking of: stick to the character counts for titles and descriptions make sure the title and description work together avoid over repetition of keywords page titles (over-optimization peril) think of the descriptions as marketing copy try to repeat some title phrases in the description (to get the bolding and promote click though) That's the micro stuff. The macro stuff: We haven't done extensive keyword research for the other languages. Most of the clients are in the US. The other language versions are more a demo of translation ability than looking for clients elsewhere. Are we missing something big here?
