Which is better Ajax, iframe in terms of seo for my category page review section?
-
Hello,
Whatever reviews I receive from customer on my Product page same reviews I show on relevant Category and Subcategory Pages. Now due to this I feel somewhat my page google consider as duplicate. Not sure.
So I am planning to use either ajax or iframe on my categories pages so that google can't read my reviews of category pages.
Is it a good practice to use ajax or iframe or anything else you can suggest?
Thanks!

Hi All,
So what shall I do to save my category pages from duplicate review? As Ajax and Iframe both google read.
Thanks!

As far as my info goes, Google can read ajax as well as iframes maybe not as good as normal content so saying that you are going to add content in iframe so that Google can’t read that, I believe Google will still be able to read the content within the iframe to an extent.
Google consider two pages as duplicate when content on the two pages are completely identical or good amount of content on both pages are exactly similar if this is the case, adding more unique content to product pages can help if only the customer reviews are identical, I personally don’t think its an issue.
Just my 2 cents.

I would certainly be looking to use Ajax - iFrame wouldn't be a good move in this case.
However, I personally wouldn't think it were necessary to do this as I would add an overall review score on the page and then link "read reviews" to a modal window or such that just carries the review once, but linked to from many different pages.
It does away with the issues you might face with Ajax and means your pages are much tidier without lots of extra content that does nothing for the page.

Language Selection Splash Page- Impact on SEO
Hi, Our site has a page for new visitors to select their language to view our website So if you type our brand adress (http://www.bdc.ca) you should be redirected to this "splash" page (http://www.bdc.ca/pages/splashpage.aspx). What is the SEO impact of doing this and is there a better way for users to choose their languages, SEO-wise (and UX wise) ? You'll also see that after the visitor select its language, he's redirected to the actual home page using a two 302 redirects ( one to bdc.ca/en/ and then another one to the actual home page). I am aware of this and I know this is really bad. Please share what you think would be the best way to manage this language selection in respect to SEO, but with respect to UX too. Thanks !

301 by category rather than page?
Hi Guys It is possible (and best practice) to 301 a category as a whole rather than every page within the category. I was asked this by a developer the other day, and it was something I'd not considered before as I've always done it by page. It seems there's some wordpress plugins out there that do it. Thanks in advance.

What can be the cause of my inner pages ranking higher than my home page?
If you do a search for my own company name or products we sell the inner pages rank higher than the homepage and if you do a search for exact content from my home page my home page doesn't show in the results. My homepage shows when you do a site: search so not sure what is causing this.

Local SEO for service industry - one landing page for every town...in every county...in every state?
Starting a second local based service site. Initially going to target a couple counties and move on from there as the business grows. The first site of mine I set up a page for each town [service] + [town] + [state] + [zip]. I am afraid this could get out of control though if I don't have unique content on each page. For the last site I simply copied the page and replace the town name in each as well as the picture, picture title, and image name to make it look more unique for users but not necessarily Google. I had pretty good results but I want this next site to be done properly. Should I only target a few of the major markets to begin with? What about long tail searches for smaller towns that currently bring in a good amount of business? I am concerned about having "too many" long tail pages for each town which would essentially become a listing of every town and county in the state if I was to maintain the pace I want to. Also I would need a good amount of backlinks to each specific town page url if I wanted to do well in each of those specific markets right? Is this where the fine line between niche term and broad search is? Is there any happy medium?

New Domain Page 7 Google but Page 1 Bing & Yahoo
Hi just wondered what other people's experience is with a new domain. Basically have a client with a domain registered end of May this year, so less than 3 months old! The site ranks for his keyword choice (not very competitive), which is in the domain name. For me I'm not at all surprised with Google's low ranking after such a short period but quite surprsied to see it ranking page 1 on Bing and Yahoo. No seo work has been done yet and there are no inbound links. Anyone else have experience of this? Should I be surprised or is that normal in the other two search engines? Thanks in advance Trevor
