SEO for Product Pages Deal that will last One Day Only

[raulreyes]

For an Ecommerce website I am required to create two pages. 1) One that will be displaying the "Deal of the day", which is basically a summary of the product on sale and another 2) product page where the actual product-deal resides.

1. "Deal of the day" page

• Fixed url e.g. homepage.com/deal-of-the-day
• Product description summary
• Go to product-deal & Buy Now Button
• Content changes everyday

2. Product Deal Page

• Similar to other products, sometimes will be a group of products, coupons etc.
• Product deals will be stored for later re-use
• Not visible from the main product catalogue
• These products are most of the time the same products from the catalogue but different copy

Recommendations? Thanks!

Hi Raul,

'Deal of the day' ecommerce models rely heavily on email, social, and paid search, and not so much SEO. SEO is a slow play, so I wouldn't put too much energy into planning SEO efforts around this.

That being said, a noindex tag is going to be sufficient in preventing the deal of the day section of the site from hurting other aspects of your site (if there are any), you don't need to worry about putting a canonical tag on that product detail page since you're not indexing it.

Hope that helps!
