ckrueger Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 To my human eyes, it seems like there are a lot of keywords, but when I used this spider simulator, (http://tools.summitmedia.co.uk/spider/) it had some comments I didn't understand. For example, every item on my page has a description, but the spider sim says "A handful of images have descriptions, but not nearly enough to make an impact" It says a lot of my images are missing ALT tags, whatever that is. It also says there are no H1 headings, what is that? Maybe I've giving this spider sim too much credit for being accurate? I look forward to your opinions on http://www.ohcheri.com
Jack_mcs Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 No, it is at least partly accurate. Whatever code you added to handle the titles and meta tags is not doing the job correctly. If you install the Header Tags Controller contribution it will fix those problems. You will have difficulty getting it all installed due to the template you are using but, if you want your shop to list well, you need to find a way to do it.

Guest Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 Some of the pictures to which the spider simulator referred were: <img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" width="100%" height="1" border="0" alt=""> and possible other such icons/table edges etc. Your set-up put correct alt tags on the product listing pictures on index.php. There were no alt tags for the flirty/romantic/sexy header navigation pictures. No alt tags on "add to cart" icon. The were no alt tags in the product page either. H1 refers to head title level 1. Not sure which sources to point you to about reading more on html, css, and SEO. I used http://www.w3.org/ a lot. And you have broken SSL (<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js"></script>). On secure pages, all elements must be from secure sources.
