Setting Up Ecommerce Functionalty for the First Time
-
Morning Mozers!
We are running up against a technical url structure issue with the addition of eCommerce pages . We are hoping you can point us in the right direction. We operate a printing company so all our current product info page are structured like:website/printing/business-cards
website/printing/rackcards
website/printing/etcThe ecommerce functionality needs to go into a sub folder but the question is what should we name it?
this how the urls would look like in the main category and product pages
/business-cards
/business-cards/full-uv-coaing-both-sideswe were thinking either going with /order
website/order/business-cards
website/order/business-cards/full-uv-coaing-both-sidesor maybe shop/ or/print-order/ etc
Any ideas or suggestions?

Considering your printing business and the addition of eCommerce functionality, I would recommend going with the "shop" subfolder. This makes the most intuitive sense and is user-friendly. Your URLs would look like:
website/shop/business-cards
website/shop/business-cards/full-uv-coating-both-sides
"Shop" is a commonly recognized term for eCommerce sections on websites and is likely to be well-received by your users. It clearly indicates where customers can find and order your products.(Canada PR) (Study abroad) (PMP Exam Prep) ( Reference Letter for Canada PR)

Solved How to solve orphan pages on a job board
Working on a website that has a job board, and over 4000 active job ads. All of these ads are listed on a single "job board" page, and don’t obviously all load at the same time. They are not linked to from anywhere else, so all tools are listing all of these job ad pages as orphans. How much of a red flag are these orphan pages? Do sites like Indeed have this same issue? Their job ads are completely dynamic, how are these pages then indexed? We use Google’s Search API to handle any expired jobs, so they are not the issue. It’s the active, but orphaned pages we are looking to solve. The site is hosted on WordPress. What is the best way to solve this issue? Just create a job category page and link to each individual job ad from there? Any simpler and perhaps more obvious solutions? What does the website structure need to be like for the problem to be solved? Would appreciate any advice you can share!

Time spent downloading a page increased
Starting on December 16 time spent downloading a page increased sharply. http://awesomescreenshot.com/0f2474ek48 We tried to find the problem, but without success. We did not changed the server and we did not changed anything on the site. http://www.webpagetest.org/result/150115_ZP_D4G/ - here you can see performance test results.

How to set up internal linking with subcategories?
I'm building a new website and am setting up internal link structure with subcategories and hoping to do so with best Seo practices in mind. When linking to a subcategory's main page, would I make the internal link www.xxx.com/fishing/ or www.xxx.com/fishing/index.html or does it matter? I'm just trying to avoid duplicate content I guess, if Google saw each page as a separate page. Any other cautions when using subdirectories in my navigation?

Guidance for setting up new 301s after having just done so (
Hi I've recently set up a load of 301 redirects for a clients new site design/structure relaunch One of the things we have done is take the kw out of the sub-category landing page url's since they now feature in the top level category page urls and don't want to risk over-optimisation by having kw repeats across the full urls. So the urls have changed and the original pages 301'd to the new current pages. However If rankings start to drop & i decide to change urls again to include kw in final part of url too for the sub category landing pages, whats best way to manage the new redirects ? Do i redirect the current urls (which have only been live for a week and have the original/old urls 301'd to them) to the new url's ? (worried this would create a chain of 301's which ive heard is not ideal) Or just redirect the original urls to the new ones, and can forget about the current pages/url's since only been live for a week ?

(I presume best not since GWT sitemaps area says most new urls indexed now so I presume sees those as the original pages replacement now) Or should they all be 301'd (original urls and current urls to the new) ? Or best to just run with current set up and avoid making too many changes again, and setting up even more 301's after having just done so ? Many Thanks 🙂 Dan0 -
Webmaster Tools "Links to your site" history over time?
Is there a way to see a history of the "links to your site"? I've seen a lot of posts here from people say "I just saw a big drop in my numbers." I don't look at this number enough to be that familiar with it. Is there a way to see if Google has suddenly chopped our numbers? I've poked around a little, but not found a method yet. Thanks, Reeves
