SEO and Pagination on search results
-
Hi
Our new site is still in beta mode, and I just wanted to check from an SEO perspective that on search results and on the pagination at the bottom of the page, is there anything we need to do so its compatible with the search engines and not have duplicate content issues etc
I have implemented search friendly URL's, but I would welcome any other issues or suggestions you have that will help improve the sites SEO performance
The URL of a search results page is
http://www.cheapfindergames.com/category-arcade-and-platform

Doug is correct,
the best practises is to not use ajax on load, only for futher requests.

This might help: http://code.google.com/web/ajaxcrawling/index.html
It's google's guide to making ajax applications crawlable!
Good luck!

The site is using AJAX thats why you cant see it. If you want to use AJAX instead of using a page refresh how can you can around the above issue?
Good idea with the category specific content.
Any other recommendations welcome

I'd be concerned that your javascript/ajax loader for the search results is going to hide the actual content from search engines. No point even worrying about the page navigation on these category pages if the content is invisible!
Use webmaster tools to take a look at how googlebot is going to see your site.
Just looking at the source of the page I can't see any mention of the content just the "
" placeholder.
I can't see the page navigation either.
Going forward I'd also try to get some more rich category specific content on the first page of each category...

On-page SEO
This is a question for the organic SEO experts, once you added the main keyword that you want to rank for in the homepage title, meta title plus meta description, perhaps once or twice in the text on the homepage. How often do you then write it in the content marketing, say blog posts, we want to rank higher on Google for "SEO agencies Cardiff" however if you mention this in the blog posts too much say once a week, this could lead to over optimisation issues?

Where can we see voice search impressions/searches?
Hi Guys, As voice search seems to be getting more popular, I would like to start accounting for these searches. I've tried looking for low impressions/long tail searches in the Search Console but feel like I am just guessing which queries are search. Does anybody have any clever way of finding these searches or could you list an example of how/if you search using voice? Thanks!

How to exclude URL filter searches in robots.txt
When I look through my MOZ reports I can see it's included 'pages' which it shouldn't have included i.e. adding filtering rules such as this one http://www.mydomain.com/brands?color=364&manufacturer=505 How can I exclude all of these filters in the robots.txt? I think it'll be: Disallow: /*?color=$ Is that the correct syntax with the $ sign in it? Thanks!

Bullet points good or bad for seo?
Hi Everyone, After a body of unique content of say 50 words, will Google then penalise you for adding bullet points which will then be duplicated across all those products (say 100 products)? http://www.polesandblinds.com/acacia-teal-roller-blind/? Look forward to your comments, good or bad, Thanks Jonathan
