        Where to begin for eComerce...

        Here a re a couple of issues I often see in eCommerce sites:

        Well written original content - this is an area where eCommerce sites often fall short, especially those that have been thrown together quickly or have multiple versions with keyword rich domains. I often get requests for SEO help from stores that have no real titles and descriptions for their products - just item numbers. Or they just use the descriptions from the manufacturer without editing them. Keep in mind that unless you are the only site selling those items, someone else already has those descriptions on their site so you might have duplicate content issues.  And make the descriptions as complete as possible. If you are selling men's pants, say more than just "Men's pants".

        Technically correct code - seems like most eCommerce platforms are a total mess when it comes to code. Totally xhtml valid code can be difficult to achieve but at least try to get close. Make sure everything works!
        Ecommerce site owners and web masters often don't consider file size of product photos - make them big enough to look good, but be sure not to use them fresh off the camera as they will often be too large and slow down the site's loading time. Scale them down in PhotoShop or another photo editor, and use some compression

        Google Merchant - Assuming that you've got the basics of a quality site and on page SEO taken care of, be sure to set up a Google Merchant/Base feed and provide all the information Google merchant asks for.

        • Okay. So I had the top spot for organic rank ( # 1 position ) above the places section. Now it has been eliminated and I am in the top spot for just the places section. What gives?

        • My site rank is not consistent. Once it at first page , then for the next week it is not found in top 100 position. Again two/ three weeks later it ranked automatically without any work. Why this is happening?

        • My homepage doesn't rank anymore. It's been replaced by irrelevant subpages which rank around 100-200 instead of top 5.
