SEO for Really Big Websites

MarketingProfs Virtual Seminars — online

June 28th, 2007

Seminar by Stephan Spencer and Chris Smith

Got a large, complex, database-driven website? Then you’re in luck, because such a site represents the best opportunity for capturing visitors from search engines such as Google. That’s because a large site has so much of what the engines love - content!

In this MarketingProfs seminar, you will gain best practices, invaluable tactics (such as “thin slicing”) and quick-hit tips and tricks. And you’ll discover what to avoid. All with real-world examples from major websites - both commercial and non-commercial.

  • How to expand into countless keyword markets
  • How to get many more pages indexed
  • How to optimize your HTML templates and CSS to make those pages “sing” to the search engines
  • How to pass your PageRank much more effectively through your site
  • How to build deep links to internal pages, not just to your home page
  • How to measure success using new (and little-known!) metrics and KPIs

Speakers:
Stephan Spencer, Founder and President, Netconcepts
Chris Smith, Lead Search Strategist, Netconcepts

SEO Report Card: Change Home Page Links

June 12th, 2007

by Stephan Spencer

Originally published in Practical eCommerce

This month’s selectee, Millcraftfurniture.com, is an outdoor furniture manufacturer operating a small (less than 100 pages) MIVA Merchant-powered ecommerce site. Its rankings are in the doldrums. The store does not appear in the first 100 listings in Google for critical terms “Adirondack chairs” and “Adirondack chair.” This site is buried deep in Google’s results for many other key terms, such as “outdoor furniture,” “patio furniture,” “garden furniture,” “porch swing” and “bench swing.” Millcraftfurniture.com does rank No. 2 for both “poly furniture” and “poly outdoor furniture,” but these two terms get little to no search activity, according to Yahoo! (specifically, the Overture Keyword Selector tool at Inventory.overture.com).
