Can Cascading DropDown HELP improve site architucture?
-
Our online stores is selling furnace filters.
http://www.furnacefilterscanada.com
We have 4 different qualities furnace filters and each of them are avaible in almost 50 different sizes.
My store is setup with almost 200 different products. ( 4 filtres X 50 sizes) None of them have variable.
I'm looking for a solution to help customers to find there furnace filter size fast and easy on our HOME page.
I find this cascading dropdown option
http://www.asp.net/ajaxLibrary/AjaxControlToolkitSampleSite/CascadingDropDown/CascadingDropDown.aspx
where I wiil setup 3 options to select:
filter width
filter lenght
filter depth
Will it be the best options?
Now my store is setup with categories and it is not the best solution.
http://www.furnacefilterscanada.com
This was a lots of work to create 200 different products. The reason I did this is because when searching in search engine, vistors will use such keywords:
16x20x4 filter
20x25x2 furnace filter
a/c filter 10x20x1
replacement filter online 20x20x1
16x25x5 filter toronto
and so on...
Must keywords request in search engine will included the furnace filter size.
Thank you for your help,
BigBlaze

I think that Ajax drop down option would be a good improvement from a user experience perspective. But, being a Javascript/Ajax control, I don't think it will have an impact on your site architecture from a search perspective.
From Google's perspective the menus will not be populated with your product data because they will not trigger the ajax calls.

On-Site Optimization Issue!
Hello, I have some confusion about how to structure my site to better in on-site optimization. I am using WordPress. Therefore, there are many things that I need to consider as following: Static Page for homepage OR Latest posts? Archive, Category, Author, Attachment and Tag pages - To put meta robots (no index, follow) or not to prevent duplication? If I use Static Page for homepage, do I need to add meta robots (no index, follow) to POINT 2 above or not? If I use Latest Posts for homepage, do I need to add meta robots (no index, follow) to POINT 2 above or not? To have breadcrumb or not? To have recent posts, comment, tag clouds or popular posts/comments widget or not? To have social sharing icons and related posts in single post or not? If you don't mind adding more tips that I don't know it would be very great! Thanks!

Sudden Site Rankings Drop
Good day guys, We have been following strict SEO strategies for the past 6 months, all sites have been improving incredibly well, all except one. The site in question is http://bit.ly/IH4pkM . The site is regarding automotive spray booth equipment. We were ranking on the first page for the keyword "spray booth" (which is the most important one), at place #4 for weeks on end. However since half-way last week, the site has been dropped to half-way the second page (#17). There are barely any crawler errors listed for our campaign on SEOMoz. There were several pages of which the meta description was missing, but that has been fixed earlier this week. When it comes to link building, I looked at what the top competitors were doing, and was looking for unique link building opportunities myself. We have received 0 webmaster tools warnings as well. I do not believe we are penalized due to the "penguin" update. After all, if you search for for the company's name in Google, it is still listed on there (# 2). Nor have we been part of dodgy link networks at all. So my question is, what do you guys believe made us drop the rankings? Is there some on-page issues I am overlooking? Any recommendations to restore out previous rankings? Kind Regards, Roderic

Internal link structure for large site
I am working on a very large directory site which is undergoing a complete redesign. I am considering the internal link structure from first principles. When a site has over 100,000 pages, how do you ensure that each page is linked to from somewhere so that there are no orphans? Trying to get my head around the structure makes my brain hurt. Any tips?
