Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Sure no problem. That is what I would do ín that case. The best theoretical thing is to redirect all URLs to the best matching page and use /category/subcategory/page and make sure that DC is not an issue. However, with Magento, I have seen many issues with redirects going bad, and my strategy is now more time focused

Are you looking for help with the technical setup (Shopping) or Power Editor experience? I would try and look at Freelancer.com or you could take a look at this post here from the Moz Community, that should give you some places to search for a freelancer or consultant: http://moz.com/community/q/where-do-you-find-an-individual-freelance-seo

Most often the problem with Magento is DC and the recommendation is to use /category/subcategory/ for breadcrumbs and normal navigation and then use /product for the actual product page.

I agree that common UX dictates that it should more like, /category/subcategory/product, but Magento (and other e-commerce CMS) have issues with making more than one URL for a product.

I would stick to /product and make the necessary 301 redirects.

Sure, I haven't heard of read about any impact in terms of SEO. I do hope that the new browser from MS can keep up with the expectations! Just let IE die already

You could also try stackoverflow.com and get a more technical aspect of the HTML5 tag and what it could mean in terms of structure and faster code.

Well it should be empty,  but I don't see any problems with this page in particular: http://www.dutchgrown.com/fall-planted-bulbs/tulips/tulip-arma.html

""

Are there a description that you could show me which contains the prefix? By the way, you should be careful using the category option for your products. Especially with Magento, you can run into Duplicate Content issues when you have the category as a part of the product URL.

The only tool that I have a personal experience with, is ProspectFinder from Enecto, Sweden. You can check it out here: http://www.enecto.com/products/prospectfinder/

It compares IP adresses with local business information, and they can integrate it with your CRM (SugarCRM, SalesForce etc.). You can get an automated email with a new list of prospects each week and a bunch of other stuff.

I wouldn't change it. The benefit of sacrifising browser support is minimal to none.

I would instead focus on decreasing load speed, creating better content or looking at schema markup (if it is relevant).

What is the URL?

I will recommend that you take a look at the Moz Guide on this topic: http://moz.com/learn/seo/international-seo

Google will differentiate content if it is served on a different domain in a different content. So a 1:1 relationship should in theory not create DC as long as it is not in the same language. However, I would take the time to make sure that the content is written properly in the right tongue and take into account local cultural aspects.

Which method are you using?

domain.com/fr/

fr.domain.com

or

domain.fr?

Well first off, the meta description is not something that Google will be forced to use and as far as I can tell, the description looks fine in the code.

_ "Google will sometimes use the meta description of a page in search results snippets, if we think it gives users a more accurate description than would be possible purely from the on-page content" _- from support.google.com: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35624?hl=en#1 (I created a link that jumps to the specific section).

Regarding your issue with site command, remember to remove the space in between the command and the url. E.g. site:domain.com.

Do you mean that Magento adds a prefix on your meta descriptions? Or do you mean that the category is included in the URL?

Just wanted to make sure that I understand it correctly, and I think that you ask about the meta description tag. Have you taken a look at the meta description field in System => Configuration => Catalog => Search Engine Optimization?

You could also take a look at the sidewide settings for the tags: http://www.screenpages.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Generall-Config2-580x324.png

What is your URL?

I just took a look at the following URL: http://www.urbandazzle.com/abc-wine-glass-red.html which looks to appear fine in the SERP: site:http://www.urbandazzle.com/abc-wine-glass-red.html

This URL however gives some errors using https://developers.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/.

Have you checked that proper markup is used?

Are there any other URLs not showing up?

Sure, I can see the issues there. Having a look at the sitemap and submitting that would be my best guess.

Thank you, with sites like these, it could be a good idea to sketch a sitemap/structure map, to get a better overview

I am just stating the obvious, but have you used Google Webmaster Tools and prompted for a reindexation? Do you want to give a visitor a custom 404 or a an image of the sold out product, with newer and on stock alternatives?

That could be an elegant solution, though it could be a technical challenge.

By the way, taking a second look at the code, I can see that you are not adhering to best practices when it comes to the header tags. See example from your mentioned page:

<title></span>Buy Abc Wine Glass Red Online India: Red Wine Glass by Ego Alter: Colored Glasses, Red Wine Glass: Urbandazzle<span class="html-tag"></title>

<meta <span class="html-attribute-name">name</meta <span>="description" content="Buy Ego Alter Abc Wine Glass Red at Rs. 5,225.00 online in India. Set Of 6 Pieces: The force and energy of the color red. Beauty is everywhere, if you know how to look at it: even inside a chalice, get ready to impress even the most distracted guest with gusto. These bold red wine glasses from the Italian house of ego alter are definitely the scene stealers.: Urbandazzle"/>

<meta name="keywords" content="abc wine="" glass="" red,="" ego="" alter="" red="" glass,="" buy="" alter,="" colored="" glasses,="" glass"=""></meta name="keywords" content="abc>

Take a look at http://moz.com/blog/new-title-tag-guidelines-preview-tool which will display where Google cutts you off in the SERP.

The length is now in pixels and does not follow the 50-60 /150-160 length for title and meta description tags. Also remember to focus the title and description on the user and convince them to buy (putting the primary keyword first off course in the title tag).

The meta name="keywords"? Ditch that all together. There is an option for that in Magento CMS. No search engines are using that anymore, and the only creates more code, thus slower page.

For urbandazzle.com:

Well, I can see that you have thought about some basics, e.g. making a clean structure in the menu and categories (you should remove the .html suffix if it is possible).

A clear issue that you should be aware of, is duplicate content. I can see that you are using Magento and with my personal experience with Magento is that you easily create duplicate content with your products.

Check to see if your products are appearing in multiple categories with different URLs (just briefly looking at the sites did not pose any issues), and especially with featured products.

I can see that the products I looked at, did not include its own category and was placed closest to the root domain: http://www.urbandazzle.com/divider-container.html. That is great and follows best practices, dealing with a lot of products like you do.

When you are sure that DC is not an issue, I would look at the performance of the site. Using different tools, the load speed was quite high. Are you using a CDN or compression methods on your static files?

Take a look at:

http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/cJJ3p6/http://www.urbandazzle.com/ and http://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.urbandazzle.com/r910gWNk

For gobol.in it is almost the same walkthrough. When dealing with a massive index of products, you must make sure that each  product is unique.

If you want to rank for a certain product, each product must have a unique URL and proper content.

Another thing, how are your users behaving on your site? What are the conversion rates and could you leverage UGC in terms of reviews and video?

These are just some of the things on top of my mind, that I think you should take a look at.

First off, suggesting all possible changes is quite broad. What are your goals with optimizing these sites? Starting structuring your e-commerce sites and laying down the user flow is a good start.
