Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Does anyone know useful websites, blogs, blogposts or forums about how UX is different in China?

We are planning on creating a Chinese version of our ecommerce website. We are already aware of the legal and cultural differences but we still require specific information about the browsing and clicking habits of the Chinese public. Also, figures about the Chinese buying behavior would come in handy.

Our webshop contains design items intended for a high-end audience.

Our corporate blog is currently online in four different languages (English, Dutch, German and French):

• blog.com
• blog.be
• blog.fr
• blog.de

For these different blogging domains we have one single Google+ page on which we share the blogs' content in different languages.

Would it be better to make four separate Google+ pages (per blogging domain)? What would be the advantages/disadvantages?

Also, each article is posted in four different languages. But the author stays the same for all different languages. So one author always posts content in English, Dutch, German and French. Could Google consider this as spam?

We run a multidomain e-commerce website that targets each country respectively:

• .be -> Belgium
• .co.uk -> United Kingdom
• etc...
• .com for all other countries

We also serve our product images via a media subdomain eg. "media.ourdomain.be/image.jpg"
This means that all TLD's contain the images of the .be media subdomain. Which is acually seen as an outbound link.

We are considering to change this setup so that it serves the images from the same domain as the current TLD, which would make more sense:

• .be will serve images from media.ourdomain.be
• .co.uk -> media.ourdomain.co.uk
• etc..

My question is: Does google image search take the extension of the TLD into consideration? So that for example German users will be more likely to see an image that is served on a .de domain?

Thanks for your response. We'll definitely go for this improvement.

But can you please explain what you mean by "an unintuitive UX idea" ?

We are currently looking into improving our TTFB on our ecommerce site.

A huge improvement would be to asynchronously load the product prices on the product list pages. The product detail page – on which the product is ordered- will be left untouched.

The idea is that all content like product data, images and other static content is sent to the browser first(first byte). The product prices depend on a set of user variables like delivery location, vat inclusive/exclusive,… etc. So they would requested via an ajax call to reduce the TTFB.

My question is whether google considers this as black hat SEO or not?

Hi

We see the extreme raise in the duplicate content of our site too. If the sensitivity is adapted, will these graphs come down again?

What is your opinion on how Google sees a webshop with lot's of products and filter options? Our site www.dmlights.com/massive for example can have a lot of filtering but we try to counter this in Webmaster Tools with the URL parameters.

Do you suggest to adapt this for good seo?

Wondering about your opinions. Thanks.
