Best .net cms and ecommerce platform for seo?
-
Hi and thanks for looking.
Due to internal constraints we are looking at a .net cms and ecommerce solution, I would have preferred a magento and wordpress solution but we have to work within our constraints.
Can anyone share their experiences or thoughts on what cms they would use with seo in mind and what eCommerce platform, again with seo in mind.
thanks again for looking and all replies gratefully received.

I believe with Kentico, you "SHOULD" be able to modify the UI to have a better feel, and sorta streamline it, that way only one person has to suffer, that person being the one doing all the set up.
I'm going through that right now. I'm building out a program that is a total nightmare. For everybody else, it should be pretty nice though... in theory...

Thanks Hashtags, that's a fantastic answer.
We were actually looking at kentico, umbraco, sitecore and ucommerce.
Kentico sounds good on paper but the ui and interface is really dated and not user friendly. Again on paper it does things like a/b testing, email marketing etc but in practice its very crude and basic.
Thanks against for your input and please keep the opinions coming fellow mozzers!

Good Morning,
Well, much like the world of Windows, .Net is so open ended I don't know where to begin. Now, I will preface this with I am more experienced with the Wordpress/Joomla side of things, however I might be able throw a little knowledge your way.
You already know that Wordpress is the easiest solution, so we don't need to go over how you should take everybody out to dinner, get them super drunk, and have them sign a document that states they will "only use wordpress".
Ubmraco is prob the most similar to Wordpress, its free, simple (for .net land) and in the long run, SEO will come down to your own ability to understand HTML and content editing.
Kentico may be the best solution depending on the size of your site, incredibly versatile, however, the free version is slightly limiting and the the enterprise solutions begin to get expensive quickly.
My best suggestion however would be to check out cmsmatrix I queried some results on that link with a shopping cart, web-based template management, etc and .net so take a look. Its pretty cool!

SEOmoz and Wordpress SEO plugin
I made a lot of changes with Wordpress SEO by Yoast before I signed up with SEOmoz. But SEOmoz doesn't seem to see those changes. I am still being told I have multiple meta descriptions. I don't know why but SEOmoz is seeing the default meta description and not the one I wrote using the Yoast plugin. How can I get SEOmoz to see those changes? Edit: Google has not updated all the changes I made with Wordpress SEO.

Duplicate product information on ecommerce site
I am planning to launch an ecommerce website soon. There is no way to start with the original content for such a small startup like me. It's pretty expensive to get original content for 1000 (around) products. You know, there are a lot of other costs such as, software licences, modules, developer, designer fees, wholesale purchases, monthly subscription for services etc... This is what i am planning to do: Start with duplicate manufacturers' or amazon's product description, meta tags etc. Then gradually turn them into an original one. I assume, google will give me a low score due to duplicate content but, if i start with duplicate content first, and then change with the original ones over the time, will this change my score?

SEO strategy recommendations?
Hi My website http://www.harrisbassett.co.uk is now ranking on the 1st page of Bing and Google for phrases such as Chartered Accountant Swansea and Tax Planners Swansea But the phrase 'accountants swansea' is still performing poorly - as it is near the bottom of the second page? Would I be better placing more accountant swansea phrases on the homepage of the site or would this have an adverse effect on the current 'Chartered Accountants Swansea' ranking as would this be classed as keyword cannabilisation? So would it be better to further optimise http://www.harrisbassett.co.uk/accounting.htm and include the phrases Accountants Swansea and Auditors Swansea or would this act against the homepage? Sorry for the questions I am just looking for the best route forward to further boost the ranking on additional terms as the majority of the 1st page listings seem to weak?

Best Layout for Product Page SEO
Hi I am looking to revamp my website and would like to know your views on the best product layout for SEO - in particular if it better to have tabulated content like play.com http://goo.gl/4xdqp or non tabulated content like Amazon. http://goo.gl/cojKj Are there any pros or cons to each approach? I believe tabulated looks better and is easier to navigate but do the engines see this as hidden text? I have been told this is an issue with expandable divs. Many thanks David
