SEO with categories

[sefu]

As the title suggest,

What are your tips to improve the rankings with your categories?

My product pages seem to be doing ok but I've always had troubles with the categories.

 

I have custom meta tags for each category, SEF url with the keywords in the url and I have page headings and descriptions with some information on the page but still not a great deal of improvement.

 

Any tips?

What about adding a categories description text. There are sevearl contributions that do this.

Content is king.

Are your categories relatively new (6 to 12 months or less)? Your pagerank should flow down to at least your first level categories. It may be that not enough time has passed since you created the categories. Your website looks good, descriptions are in the title bare, etc...

I added in the SEF URL and Meta for categories only last month

Prior to this, the caterogies were there for a few years without any reconition by google so I decided to add in these mods
