Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi There In general you probably don't need to do that. Here's how I would normally deal with indexation in WordPress (assuming you're using WordPress); Categories - index Tags - noindex Date archives - noindex Author (single author blogs) - noindex Author (multi-author) - index Subpages - noindex Basically all these settings are shown in my post here on setting up WordPress: http://moz.com/blog/setup-wordpress-for-seo-success Yoast is the best plugin to do all this with!

THanks for all of the answers, does anyone have recommendations for good companies that do consulting for Panda related issues?

You might try the good folks at http://www.goinflow.com/ - Everett Sizemore in particular. He gave a very good mozinar on eCommerce SEO here: http://moz.com/webinars/ecommerce-seo-fix-and-avoid-common-issues  This is how I became familiar with him. There are also two guys at http://www.melen.net, Matthew Prepis and Oleg Korneitchouk (Oleg is active here in the Moz forum) who performed a high level audit for us that was top notch. They were striving to win our business and are still in the running. They are excellent. Either of these two might come in quite a bit lower than a company like RKG, depending on the scope of the project of course.

This is not an extensive list but here are a couple. http://moz.com/blog/perfecting-onpage-optimization-for-ecommerce-websites http://searchengineland.com/best-practices-in-e-commerce-seo-176921

Good point. If you don't want the filter pages crawled at all, it would be better to just block them via robots.txt. My preferred approach is to use query parameters for filters, and canonicaling the filtered pages back to the original, unfiltered page. Another approach is to use AJAX to dynamically filter the page. This takes more programming overhead, but won't result in tons of extra pages being crawled and potentially indexed.

I tried to sign up with them, but they scoffed at me when I showed them my traffic report. "We don't provide support for clients your size. You can use our service but you'll need more traffic to see any results." It was a total turn off.

Then I think you will see a recovery and possible improvement, but check through Paul's suggestions. Peter

Thanks for the helpful advice!

Hi Gordian, Which affiliate network are you using like cj, linkshare, shareasale ? They already have affiliate link tracking for sales. Affiliate get paid based upon those affiliate links. Please talk to your affiliate network they will help you out in it.

I think its better to use the Google Ads. Neither than you need to search some blogger and try to link with their blog so that all the website visits would be generated. Also You could create the blog related to the review of the product. I have heard into the internet marketing strategies. I hope these would help you a lot.

Honestly I am seeing ranking fluctuations in all language markets but am not doing anything about it. For now I would suggest to just continue doing what you are doing until things have settled down then analyse what has happened thereafter. Doing a change during a change like this could hurt more than it could benefit.

A good post on making Facebook comments on your site indexable is here: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/make-facebook-comments-box-indexable-by-search-engines But yeah as far as making comments into a dedicated URL I don't think you can do it. I hope this helps, Regards, James Norquay

Thanks for the prompt reply. My images are already optimized but 200 7kb images take longer to load than 1 1.5mb image. The fact that it loads the same gray pixel gif for 190 images saves lots of time. I played with the JQuery lazy load and got the page speed up from 50 mobile & 64 desktop to first load (there is also caching) all the way up to 69 mobile and 84 desktop (google speed test). Even with the caching there is about 10 points difference. (approx 75 and 90). There is also a difference in the user experience even though it is mostly felt in first time mobile users...
