RE: Exact Syntax for Canonical to PDFs for Windows Server
Hi, I believe your question is answered here via .htaccess file rather than web.config. Moz blog: How To: Advanced rel="canonical" HTTP Headers

RE: How to Disallow Tag Pages With Robot.txt
Hi Mark
If your using Wordpress then I would recommend SEO Yoast to resolve the tag issue. If not then I suggest you amend the robots.txt file to resolve.
Here is an example:
Disallow: /?tag=
Disallow: /?subcats=
Disallow: /*?features_hash=NOTE:
Be very careful when blocking search engines. Test and test again!

SEO Yoast data export
Just thought I would give something back. (Is this the right place!)
I use Wordpress with the excellent SEO Yoast plugin. I needed a way of extracting the focus keywords that I have entered onto my pages along with the url for use on the SEOmoz On-page Optimisation tool.
So I created GetYoastData which outputs to the browser the required data (and a bit more) that can be saved into an csv (Excel) file.
Hope you find it useful - Yes it's not polished and yes it might output a blank line now and again but it's fairly useful.

RE: Best Practices for adding Dynamic URL's to XML Sitemap
Hi LW
I agree with Mark re archiving products. Although our products don't expire as quickly as yours appear to do I use http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/standalone-google-sitemap-generator.html on a cron job to keep our sitemap fresh.
I also exclude some of our over dynamic URLs using this tool from appearing in the sitemap.
