Just a quick note that you may want to edit out your personal information (phone numbers). This is usually best shared via a PM so it doesn't get into the index and stay there forever. Thanks!

Well if you are starting off the 1st advice is to of course apart from standard On-page optimization for the main pages to build unique content description for most of your products. The reason is that while you are waiting and working on the main page to rank for the 1st keyword you will start ranking well for long tail keywords that are specific to your product. The advantage of ranking well 1- 5 for a product page is that not only your conversion rate is much higher (specific searches => higher conversion rate) and also more value your inner pages get the more juice it will pass on to the main page. Of course not forgetting the main pages optimization & link building.
Hope it helps.. PM if you need more inside advice... i just did a shop recently so i kind of know a bit

Satellite Website Dilemma - Hosted in House or Elsewhere? Blog or Actual Shop?
Hi All, I have recently noticed a LOT of websites appearing in some of the SERP (example http://goo.gl/UyHZp6) that have an exact match domain (or as near as) and are either thin blogs that have a splash of content, and then link back to Amazon, competitor A competitor B etc. or an online secondary shop. Getting tired of this I have purchased a couple of exact match domains of my own, but am unsure of the best way to tackle this with long term gains in mind. The exact match domains I have are the .co.uk and com versions of these: http://goo.gl/xrjY7Z http://goo.gl/Mg0XBl The ideal scenario for me would be to create the satellite website as a functioning shop specialising in just a small group of specialist products (10 - 12) from a subcategory of the main site. My main store has 1200 + items and this will make the user experience better as I feel as it will make navigation easier, allow for more information to be present without confusing things. It would also allow the customer to feel safe knowing they are buying from a specialist. However I have the following in mind: My ecommerce software open cart supports multi store from the same database, this is great and makes management massively easy. It would allow me to brand the satellite store up as specialist store yet manage all orders through one admin portal. The sites would have separate IP addresses, but I am worried about the site being on the same server as the main site, and sharing whois info etc. Would google think of this as spamming the results? There will be no shared content, and I do not intend to interlink the sites for fear of them looking like a link network. The other option is to take out some cheap hosting and start building content on a blog similar to this: http://goo.gl/sBB3wY I hate this however as it just seems spammy and as a consumer it annoys me when I find this. What are your thoughts on how to deal with this?

E-commerce Optimization
If you're optimizing an e-commerce site where you sell a certain brand of product, can you re-use the product descriptions from that brand's store? For example, if I'm selling Nike's, can I use the product descriptions and info from the Nike product pages? (This is not what I'm selling). Or should you write your own descriptions. I understand that original content is best, but in an online store situation, how do you write up a product description that's different from the original? It is what it is, right?
