Optimizing an e-commerce website
-
Hi,
What do you recommend me to optimice an e-commerce website to rank every page or product?
Do I have to implement schema and meta description for every product or is easier to optimice every category?
-
Hi Patrick, Thanks!
Excellent answer, only a doubt about Schema, If every product is refreshing every month what happened with that information or could be a dynamic information for Schema?
-
BuiltVisible also has a great and very comprehensive guide to meta data and schema.

Great answer! I'll add our Search Ranking Factors to the list.

Hi there
I definitely recommend Schema on every product, as well as breadcrumbs, reviews, and also site search which helps for Sitelinks search boxes. It also helps inform your Google Analytics.
Here are a couple of great resources:
The Ultimate Guide to SEO for E-commerce Websites (Kissmetrics)
Thin & Duplicate Content: eCommerce SEO (Inflow)
The Definitive Guide To Ecommerce Search Engine Optimization (Neil Patel)Take advantage of internal linking between relevant products and categories, and make sure you have a proper information architecture set up for usability!
Hope this helps! Good luck!

Due to the multi-language module that they've used, we have example.com and example.com/nl having exactly the same content. In order to avoid duplicate content, those pages have the following canonicals:
1. example.com -> Canonical to example.com/nl
2. example.com/nl -> Canonical to example.com/nl Do I loose SEO-value by not canonicalising directly to the root-domain homepage (example.com)?0 -
