Over Optimised Magento Pages
-
We are working on a clients Magento site and we've added new copy which has a decent keyword density which is in line with best practice. When we run it through Moz we are getting a Key Word Stuffing alert saying the page has 27 keywords, where we can only see about 11.
This is the page https://www.greatbeanbags.com/bean-bag-cushions
The client is pushing back saying the page must have already been optimised before as our new copy has triggered the stuffing alert. But my guess is the page was already stuffed but buy some Magento code we can't see.
Any ideas?

We avoided keyword stuffing by having a simple real estate website landing page for properties in London

It's possible that the page you're working on may have hidden or latent keywords within the Magento code that are contributing to the keyword stuffing alert in Moz. You might want to check the HTML source code of the page for any hidden elements or meta tags that could be adding extra keywords. Additionally, consider running the page through other SEO tools to cross-verify the keyword density and confirm if there's indeed an issue. If the keyword density issue persists, you may need to work on optimizing the code or structure of the page to ensure it aligns with best practices and doesn't trigger false alarms for keyword stuffing.

It's possible that Magento's code or some hidden elements are causing the discrepancy in keyword density on the page. While you can only see about 11 keywords, the Moz tool is detecting 27, likely due to background code or hidden text. To address this issue:
Check for Hidden Elements: Examine the page's source code for hidden elements, comments, or other content that might contain keywords. Sometimes, keywords can be hidden from the visible page but are still picked up by SEO tools.
Inspect Magento Templates: Magento's templates and dynamic content generation can sometimes insert keywords, meta tags, or other SEO-related elements into the page. Ensure that these are not artificially inflating keyword density.
Evaluate Moz's Criteria: Review Moz's specific criteria for detecting keyword stuffing. Sometimes, their algorithms may produce false positives. Ensure that the detected keywords are genuinely excessive and not common words or phrases used naturally.
Optimize Content: If you confirm that keyword stuffing exists, work with your client to optimize the content by removing unnecessary keywords and ensuring they are used naturally. The goal is to maintain a balance between SEO optimization and providing valuable content to users.
Documentation: Keep records of your findings and any changes made for future reference in case your client still questions the issue.
By investigating these areas, you can address the keyword stuffing alert and ensure that your client's Magento site is optimized for both search engines and user experience.

Collections or blog posts for Shopify ecommerce seo?
Hi, hope you guys can help as I am going down a rabbit hole with this one! We have a solid-ranking sports nutrition site and are building a new SEO keyword strategy on our Shopify built store. We are using collections (categories) for much of the key product-based seo. This is because, as we understand it, Google prioritises collection/category pages over product pages. Should we then build additional collection pages to rank for secondary product search terms that could fit a collection page structure (eg 'vegan sports nutrition'), or should we use blog posts to do this? We have a quality blog with good unique content and reasonable domain authority so both options are open to us. But while the collection/category option may be best for SEO, too many collections/categories could upset our UX. We have a very small product range (10 products) so want to keep navigation fast and easy. Our 7 lead keyword collection pages do this already. More run the risk of upsetting ease/speed of site navigation. On the other hand, conversion rate from collection pages is historically much better than blog pages. We have made major technical upgrades to the blog to improve this but these are yet to be tested in anger. So at the heart of it all - do you guys recommend favouring blog posts or collection/category pages for secondary high sales intent keywords? All help gratefully received - thanks!

302 redirects in Magento, trying to fix
Hi all, I'm assigned a site in Magento. After the first craw, we found almost 15k 302 redirects. A sample URL ends with this /stores/store/switch/?SID=qdq9mf1u6afgodo1vtvk0ucdpb&___from_store=default&___store=german&uenc=aHR0cHM6Ly9qdWljeWZsdXRlcy5jb20vP19fX3N0b3JlPWdlcm1hbg%2C%2C And they are currently 302 redirecting to the homepage as well as other main pages and also product pages it seems. Some of these point to account pages where customers log in. Probably best for me to de-index those so no issues there. But I'm worried about the 302 redirects to public pages. The extension we have installed is SEO Suite Ultimate by MageWorx. Does anyone here have experience here specifically and how did you fix it? Thanks, JC

Followed all on-page rules no listing for target keyword :(
Hey guys, long time Moz user, first time forum asker. I recently went all out and tried to create above and beyond blog content, while also making sure to keep it SEO friendly. The page is indexed but does not show anywhere at all for the target keyword. Here is my article URL below. http://blog.storitz.com/2016/04/75-moving-tips-preparing-packing-beyond/ I checked it on the onpage ranker on MOZ and got a B. Here are some theories on maybe why it's not ranking at all. It got knocked for keyword stuffing. Although my page has tons of content and the keyword density is at a reasonable rate, I still used the keyword 22 times. Another is my wordpress automatically set my robots tag to "Noodp". Wanted to get some feedback and see if there is anything you guys might have some insight into before I start making adjustments here. Appreciate it in advanced!

I have a page where you can download a PDF of the material - should I exclude the PDF from the search engines?
In my niche, there is a controversial research article that is very popular. I am writing a rebuttal to this article and giving another point of view. My article has the potential to be really good link bait for my site. The original article is often printed out to be shown to professionals in my niche. My hope is that people will do the same with mine. So, I plan to have a PDF version of my article available on my page. The article that is visible on my site (i.e. non PDF) will be a graphic rich article that is easy for the reader to go through. I plan to have the PDF have all of the same text, but it won't have as many graphics - it will look more like a scientific research article. So, should I exclude the pdf from search engines so that it isn't duplicate content? Or does that even matter seeing as it is a duplicate of my own content? I want people to link to the main article, not the pdf. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
