SEO for bigcommerce site

Sure.
It is fairly simple Chandana. Much like marketing yourself offline, you need to establish valuable contacts and relationships within your professional industry. The same goes for the web. Search engines derive authority from links, citations, likes, tweets and any measurable metric they can tally. However, links are still the most important.
Showing Google your companies digital footprint (or web presence) is vast, robust and mentioned on sites they trust will actually make a site with GOOD on-site SEO very powerful. Without that, you'll only see a handful of your pages indexed and served in positions of prominence.
If link building truly is a priority, I would look up Garrett French and read his articles, look at his tools and the Ontolo link building book.

Thank you "driving authority to the domain" can u explain about this plz
-
Here's what you need to know:
- Big sites require domain authority or scalable long-tail strategies.
- You must always focus on driving authority to the domain.
- Build links. Lots of links. Diversify the link profile.
Don't believe me? Look at how many search-results pages walmart.com has ranking now across all their verticals. Sure, on-site is very important but driving authority to the domain is something that NEEDS to happen and can take months to process, let alone, facilitate the link building campaigns.
Linking Strategies:
- Outreach campaigns.
- Linkbait.
- Linkable assets.

The biggest compliance issue with most large ecommerce sites is product pages creating tons of duplicate and often empty pages with little or no content and often just product info repeated on multiple pages. Rel next, canonical, noindex metas, and adding content are all issues needing to be configured properly. In addition, quite often duplicate and untargeted title and meta tags is also a big issue with very large sites with autogenerated pages.

Can Image Quality In Online Store Effect Main Site SEO?
My client is building a new shopping cart that will be mobile friendly BUT will have terrible image quality - tiny images, with text on them. How will these tiny images impact the SEO on the main site? Should they put the store on the mainsite.com or on a subdomain (store.mainsite.com)? Does google see subdomains as part of the main site? I would think that having thousands of shopping product pages could be beneficial to the main site SEO, as long as the images don't negate the content. Thoughts?

SEO - What Should We Do...
Hi Guys, Hope your all OK. Were having major problems with our homepage ranking for our main keyword - we were originally 4 but over the Christmas period our SEO company reported a fault with one of there servers that they were using for links, because of this fault these links were de-indexed from the search engine and in turn we have plummeted to 10th... At the time we had a landing page with an exact match keyword in it, e.g: www.ourdomainname.co.uk/key-word/ we were told to 301 this to our main page in Google but when we have looked today its now showing this page instead of our homepage. We also have another domain that we are using for a forum at the moment, now this domain name is an exact match doming e.g www.keyword.co.uk. The question is do we gamble and 301 our whole site to www.keyword.co.uk and see if we can get this ranking better? Thanks, Scott

Optimize a Classifieds Site
Hi, I have a classifieds website and would like to optimize it. The issues/questions I have: A Classifieds site has, say, 500 cities. Is it better to create separate subdomains for each city (http://city_name.site.com) or subdirectory (http://site.com/city_name)? Now in each city, there will be say 50 categories. Now these 50 categories are common across all the cities. Hence, the layout and content will be the same with difference of latest ads from each city and name of the city and the urls pointing to each category in the relevant city. The site architecture of a classifieds site is highly prone to have major content which is not really a duplicate content. What is the best way to deal with this situation? I have been hit by Panda in April 2011 with traffic going down 50%. However, the traffic since then has been around same level. How to best handle the duplicate content penalty in case with site like a classifieds site. Cheers!
