7 common Magento SEO mistakes need to know
When dealing with Magento store’s SEO, these are the 7 most common basic mistakes I encounter. Some of these are inherited from the development stage of your projects. I hope this checklist will be useful for anyone launching a new store or checking their live site:
1. Homepage title “home”
If I had a dollar for every Magento store out there I’ve seen with a homepage title “home” I’d be a rich man. The homepage is usually a CMS page. Go in there and change the title of the page into something more suitable such as “Blue Widgets Online Store – Example.com”.
2. Using “default description” field
System > Configuration > General > Design > HTML Head > Default description – Leave this blank or you’ll have such a mess of duplicate descriptions on your store that don’t really describe the given URL that it will be unbelievable. Also, please make sure your meta keywords are not “magento, magento commerce” etc.
3. Not turning on rel=canonical
Save yourself from lots of duplicate content issues. Turn canonicals on for both products and categories.
4. Logo title and/or alt “Magento Commerce”
Logo, usually in the top left of your website. Don’t have it say “Magento Commerce”. I’ve seen that a lot of times.
5. Forgetting to turn meta robots to “index, follow” and remove robots.txt disallow after a move from staging/dev site to the live site
System > Configuration > General > Design > HTML Head > Default robots “INDEX, FOLLOW”.
Sometimes people leave this as noindex, nofollow on dev server and forget to change it when they migrate to the live server.
6. Having a default layered navigation
Layered navigation is a hell for the SEO.
7. Building a sitemap with sample products and sample categories
I’ve seen this one as well. Check what’s in your sitemap.xml before you submit it to Google. No sample products please!View more threads in the same category:
