Shopify websites. I've been asked to do some SEO work for a client.
-
They have a Shopify site. It's been running a year without getting really any listings. Anyone else had this problem? Should we just build them a new website? Or do shopify site have a poor record of listing highly.Thanks

The most common thing we see with Shopify is that the categories are often a mess due to lack of planning and understanding. They call them collections, and it's the equivalent to doing tag/category cleanup on a WordPress site to help clear out low-value content. Another common complaint is that the blog forces you into a bit of annoying URL structure (ie. /blog/news but works well if the content is solid.

Partial Website Translation - Strategy Debate
Hi We have a travel site with over 3000 pages in English. Of these around 200 relate to products and the rest are content articles, most of which with very low traffic. Certain products and pages appeal directly to users in different languages (around 20-30 out of 200 for each language). We are debating how to go about translating these pages... If we did "oursite.com/es/product", "oursite.com/de/product", etc then users entering the site on these translated pages from Google would be limited to seeing a very cut down site, bearing in mind most speak English and would also be able to interact with our English language content we are probably losing out. Also, if we detected user language on entry, we would show effectively hide most of our product and content from users. Any suggestions or ideas about how to go about this without losing engagement/conversions/creating a mess?

Individual statistics (not aggregated) for 'local pack' and 'organic search results' when both on the same page
Hi, For a particular keyword combination we show up on the local pack but also on the organic search results on the 1st page. I have never been able to find out what the CTR, #clicks, conversions for this two different kinds of positions are individually. The aggregate figures I can find out in Google Search Console / Analytics, but I would like to know on an individual level as I am testing out different things. With the statistics on Google My Business I can't get along actually...no CTR as far as i know. Any hint? Cheers, Cesare

Shopify vs BigCommerce vs Lemonstand vs Yahoo
Have any of you moz folks recently had experience deciding where to build a small ecommerce site and had considered the following: Shopify Big Commerce Lemonstand Yahoo Our site has been on Yahoo for 12 years. And I've seen designers the last several really complain about the limitations of customizing Yahoo stores and the checkout pages. Going to be creating a new ecommerce site for jewelry and thinking we should consider another platform. Things like built in responsive design, ability to customize checkout, customize store easily without RTML (Yahoo proprietary language - not many developers use it), ability to scale up if needed, but affordable for entry, conversion optimization best practices built in, ability for good seo built in without having to use 3rd party. (Another crappy limitation of Yahoo stores is that they do NOT support a blog as part of the domain, ie, www.domain.com/blog.html which is much better for seo than their way - blog.domain.com) I read on Rich Page's blog that he likes BigCommerce. I've spoken with Lemonstand and they have a lot of fashion sites using their new platform, and I'm seeing lots of new sites spring up using Shopify. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! I'm sure there are a bunch of folks like me that have similar decisions to make now. Thanks! Ron
