Prices in title tag
-
At our ecommerce site adwords ads generally perform a lot better when the product price is included in the ad title.
Does anyone here have any experience and data on CTR with including product prices in title tags of product / category pages?
-
Agreed

Doug Raises some good points, however I would also urge you to consider that you may want to stop some people clicking on your ad.
For example if you offer a service that is priced at £100 per hour and in the market there are other services (not the same quality as yours) that are £50 per hour you would not want to spend money (Via PPC) on those who do not have the budget to pay for your service.

I have little experience here too but if it's an unbeatable offer then I'd think it'd help CTR, as long as it doesn't look spammy. Why not try it on a few products you're unbeatable on price for? I'd hate certain SERPs to become a list of £ and $ signs though...
"You've got no opportunity of stating your value proposition and benefits of your product before stating your price."
I agree if you're offering something unique, but if it's a product that's listed on hundreds of other sites I think it could help, and the unique factor would be your low price!

Sorry not much experience here with product prices in the titles, but I'm wondering if this only helps when you're competing on price and/or selling a commodity.
The problem with having a price in the title is that it's the first thing that people are going to see and if it's not competitive then you're in danger of losing the click through.
You've got no opportunity of stating your value proposition and benefits of your product before stating your price. I don't think it's something I'd advise.
It might work for ads using price to draw traffic to a particular offer, not sure the same would work on product pages.

What heading tag to use on sidebars and footers
Hello, I have some awareness of how to use H1, H2 and H3.
On-Page Optimization | | kowston
H1 only once per page as the main page heading.
H2's should be subheadings, H3's are sub-sub headings of the and so on.
This structure gives hierarchy and opportunities to use additional keywords in an order of priority. I can clearly understand how this would work in an article but what about other content on the page such as global/frequently repeated elements like sidebars and footers? I see sites - and in particular, I have examed SEO focused sites - that use H3, H4 and H5 in these instances seemingly giving themselves scope to use at least H2 tags as part of the page content and break out of the structure hierarchy when dealing with sidebars and footers. I suppose this could signal theses headings are sections of the page that are less relevant than the main article content but that is just an assumption. I don't know what is correct.0 -
Tags - Good or bad for SEO
We are getting Moz errors for duplicate content because tag pages share the same blog posts. Is there any way to fix this? Are these errors bad for SEO, or can I simply disregard these and ignore them? We are also getting Moz errors for missing descriptions on tag pages. I am unsure how to fix these errors, as we do not actually have pages for these on our WordPress site where we are able to put in a description. I have heard that having tags can be good for SEO? (We don't mind having several links that show up when searching for us on google...) As far as the SEO goes, I am not sure what to do. Does anyone know the best strategy?

Duplicate Title and Meta Description Tags in Shopify with this App
Hello. I'm finding that by adding the Ultra SEO app in Shopify, I now have duplicates of the Title tags and Meta Descriptions. It looks like it's pulling title tags from the Shop info, the product or page titles as well as the Title tag I add in Ultra SEO. The website is 1bigcookie.com. The duplicate meta descriptions are from the text I entered in the meta description field in Ultra SEO. I entered the canonical url code shopify specifies to help with duplicate content, but what about duplicate title and meta description tags on the same page?

Hey guys! I was looking at adding the H1 tag lower on the page than the H2 tag because I want the top bit to be a call to action. Is this proper practice?

Does Title Tag have to be in the HEAD tag?
We are using templates that load the same header for every page. I'd like to just include a different title tag in the "body" template of each page. If I was to do this, does it affect SEO at all?

H1 tag in the footer?
Quick question: I have been scouring SEOMoz.org along with webmaster forums looking for an answer, but we have a person who insists that the H1 tag be located in the Footer. I feel that is is fundamentally wrong because it is not the intent of the H1 tag, and I do not believe it is a best practice. That being said would we see what little value the H1 tag has disappear if we put it in the footer, would we be penalized, or am I being too vanilla by wanting to keep it in the Title position?
