Which ecommerce platform is best for SEO?

[seanmccauley]

We currently run our eyewear store on osCommerce. However, for various reasons we are considering a redevelopment onto another platform, the most obvious choice being Magento. What might the advantage and improvement in SEO with such a change and is the pain worth the gain???

We have used a CMS software package called CS-Cart and have found that to be very good for SEO and is very customisable.

Hope this helps

Is your recommended system as well supported as Magento? Why did you choose over Magento?

My vote goes for Magento. It's a bit of a pain to set up and configure but very robust and has not caused us any anomalies so far.

Interspire Shopping Cart. Built in SEO is excellent! (Though the support are a touch slow in a number of other areas.)

With Interspire and a good domain name I get a great number of extremely good rankings on the first page of the SERPS (alongside the likes of Amazon.co.uk) for almost every one of our targeted keywords.

Do not overlook this solution, or their hosted version www.BigCommerce.com

NOTE: SEO 'GURU' Aaron Wall had some involvement (as a consultant?) in the SEO aspects of Interspire too.
