I'm currently creating a 404 error page for my site and I noticed that a similar site uses some sort of code to automatically generate a meta title. Is this useful?
For instance type in electrolux.com/john
This page does not exist but in the title you'll see John | Electrolux
How can i do this on my site?
Sorry I guess I misunderstood you! This sounds like a good technique and the IP address variety will not be a problem. Doing just one of these will be helpful for you as long as it is original content and you use the keyword properly. There is really no definite number of these that it will take to see a significant result but having any new original content will help your google rankings. Google likes to see original fresh content so as long as it's original, these will be helpful!
Your best practice for in house reviews, although I cannot say it is the most ethical, would be to create customer accounts and write reviews on the products. Make sure to spread these out over time with different usernames. As far as google goes, if they're all coming from the same IP address, they might not be so helpful but using the keywords anywhere on your page in text is always good!
When customers see these good reviews they will feel better about making a purchase and that helps conversions(which is the reason you're doing SEO in the first place).
Another way to do in house reviews is to do them on the company blog. This is a more white-hat approach and you can link to other pages on your site where the products are.
The best way to help your page though is to ask your customers to write reviews. Offer them incentives(like a 5% discount on their next purchase when they review the product they bought).
Having real reviews on your site is definitely a great way to give your site a better reputation. Hope that helps!
The problem with blog links is that most of them are nofollow links. While no follow links can still be useful, having a lot of them can be frowned upon by google. I would recommend writing more articles for links on different article sites and writing press releases. Having more unique sites linking to you is really important in any SEO strategy.
We've actually been doing some work on some Air Purifiers so I created my first infographic. You can tell it's my first time doing an infographic though.
Love this idea! Thanks for the help! I'll try this out.
I've actually just started emailing mom bloggers a couple days ago as well as emailing other sites that do reviews of vacuum cleaners. I'm trying to get into guest blogging but I'm not sure how.
Yes, We do a blog on our site to answer the questions that we hear most frequently. Lately I've been focusing on mainly on page optimization(looking for pages without meta tags and fixing, adding descriptions for all categories of products, and we add hundreds of new products every day) One thing that we offer is the parts diagrams and schematics for almost every make and model of vacuum cleaner.
I do SEO for an online store that sells vacuum cleaners. I write a lot of articles for yahoo, hub pages, etc as well as promoted press releases. But I'm looking to get some more unique links. I'm looking for any tips I can get.
I've done tons of directories that have actually got a couple keywords on the front page of google but I'm looking to shy away from link directories.
I write a few articles every week.
I also try and create new social networking sites for the business.
Does anyone have any new ideas?
What you're doing is great if you have the content to back it up, especially if you're in a niche market. Make sure your infographics are of the highest quality possible. There are so many infographics out there that you really need to make yours stand out to have it picked up.
You should also be doing some link baiting for all of these articles and press releases you're doing. Writing a random article or press release just to get you a link can only help you so much. If the article or press release is getting tons of views and comments from different IP addresses, you'll find yourself in a good spot.
