Thanks for the link!

Is it possible to selectively 301 redirect mobile/tablet user agents and google robots from the desktop version of a website to a mobile site? Would this preserve the SEO for the desktop website while optimizing the mobile/tablet site for mobile SEO?

UGC = User Generated Content. User reviews are a form of UGC which will increase the amount of content you have targeting highly targeted long tail keywords in SERPs.

Hey Slava, more specifically, I'm looking for details on how to load the google+ badge asynchronously. I'm not highly technical, so hopefully that made sense.

My first thought is that you don't have a clear call to action to buy on your product pages. Simply having a button that says "buy" or "add to cart" would probably be the lowest hanging fruit.

Secondly, you don't have reviews on your site. If you use google merchant then you could get customers to leave reviews. You could then use the api to place the reviews directly on your own product pages.

Hope those two things help.

So the Google+ Badge verifies our site for Google direct connect. However, the javascript code for the badge itself causes the page to load 3 to 4 seconds longer, which is a big deal.

Any ideas for a work around?

Thanks for the advice! That sounds like a good plan B if I can't get the developers to change the image to text. This is definitely one of the most avoidable yet most frustrating on page issues I encounter.

I guess it's time to update my documentation for development.

Thanks, I was just thinking that too, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Is it bad practice to use a text indent through CSS for H1 text on a homepage(basically hiding h1 text)? I'm just trying to compensate for the fact that some text that should really be in the h1 tag is actually an image.

Thanks Michael! That was quite insightful : )
