In Topic: What is missing?

I agree with Jack_mcs above about installing Header Tags SEO. At present your home page nondescript tag is :
<meta name="Nam ut superiora omittam, hoc certe, quod mihi maximam admirationem movet, non tacebo." />
Get this changes asap as this is what users will see on search engine listings.

On all other pages the description tag is blank. Again I agree that you are wasting characters in your title tag by using your company name here. Unless you have a really famous brand and someone is specifically searching for this name then it just wastes characters in this very important area.

Good luck with your site.

Thanks for your feedback, I didn't notice that meta name tag - now fixed. Do you know how long it usually takes for search engines to check the site and update the info from it?

Also linking to the other reply, do you think very short titles are fine?

I think probably the biggest problem you have is that you are not using an ssl certificate. More and more shoppers are understanding the security risks of such shops and simply won't use them. Don't bother with validating the site. It won't affect SEO unless something is broken. And a robots file is only for asking the search engines not to list certain pages. It doesn't help with getting pages listed. Plus, with over 4,000 of your links listed on google, that is not the problem anyway. The second main problem you have is that you are using your domain name as the main keyword of all of the pages - big mistake. The third is that there is almost no text on the pages for the search engines to use. I suggest installing Header Tags SEO so that you can easily control that. And fourth, you need to move all of the css and javascript to external files. There is way too much of it in the files.

Hi @Jack_mcs Thanks for the comments and advice, I have taken all your points into consideration. About the store name in the title tag- I have turned it off so now when you are on a category/brand page it shows just the category/brand name in the title which usually is one word. Would that be bad SEO practise, as in too short or too brief? I have seen some sites that have it that way, but in Google usually there are rather long titles in search results.

Also, I use Header Tags SEO but as for meta descriptions and tags it only allows me to add them for category pages, how can I do the same for other pages?

Anyway I appreciate your feedback.

In Topic: I want the footer in a <div> at the end of the site but i cant pleas...

The footer will stick to the end of your pages body content, that is <div class="contentContainer">. You could give that element a minimum height in CSS e.g. min-height: 25em; but that's not going to stay at the end of the page on all screen resolutions.


Also you should use the external stylesheet.css for your styling like the other elements.

In Topic: Hiding the 'Reviews' button on the product info page

28 August 2012 - 01:05 PM

If you change this:
  <div class="buttonSet">
	<span class="buttonAction"><?php echo tep_draw_hidden_field('products_id', $product_info['products_id']) . tep_draw_button(IMAGE_BUTTON_IN_CART, 'cart', null, 'primary'); ?></span>

	<?php echo tep_draw_button(IMAGE_BUTTON_REVIEWS . (($reviews['count'] > 0) ? ' (' . $reviews['count'] . ')' : ''), 'comment', tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS, tep_get_all_get_params())); ?>
  </div>

into this:

  <div class="buttonSet">
	<span class="buttonAction"><?php echo tep_draw_hidden_field('products_id', $product_info['products_id']) . tep_draw_button(IMAGE_BUTTON_IN_CART, 'cart', null, 'primary'); ?></span>

  </div>

It should look all fine unless you made some other changes.

In Topic: Problems with background

28 August 2012 - 12:59 PM

@demonbane911

the <body> tag is coded in the template_top.php file. The CSS you posted above wont work as you haven't specified an element id for the second part.
If you are trying to add the background image to the main background of the site simply add this background: #000 url(images/banners/tlo_do_tejconu.jpg) no-repeat fixed center top; to your body in css. So it would look like this:

body {
background: #000 url(images/banners/tlo_do_tejconu.jpg) no-repeat fixed center top;
color: #000;
margin: 0;
font-size: 11px;
font-family: Lucida Grande, Lucida Sans, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
}

If you want that image to be in background of a separate div then you need to specify the id/class of it at the top. e.g. #myElement
