Hi Damon,
Get the SEOmoz Toolbar, it has a function to highlight NoFollow links. very handy!

My best tip for shopping sites is to ensure your content is unique and well written giving as much genuineinformation on the product as possible. I always like to include bullet points to highlight features too.
Allowing customers to rate and comment on products is a great way to build up some awesome UGC on product pages.
Both of these options will help SEO and potentially help conversion too.
Including social sharing buttons for people to FB Like/Tweet Products cant hurt either.
