Search Engine Friendly Shopping Cart

Q-Shop is a search engine friendly cart. To maximize content relevance and help your page rankings we have implemented the following features:

1. Relevant page titles:
   Product and section names will appear in the page titles, which are key positions for keyword relevance. Most online shop packages will just include a generic title that won't help people looking for your products.
2. Custom meta tags and keywords for products:
   You can override the default meta tags for each product to increase the relevance of the page description and keywords.
3. Easy crawling:
   Search engines like links with relevant keywords. Q-Shop includes several pages that besides making it easier for your customers to find products will also provide relevant links to the search engine spiders to find all the product and section pages on your site.
4. Clean design:
   Q-Shop use of CSS reduces the formatting bloat of your HTML pages making it easier for search engines to get the content they're looking for.
5. Use of image alternative (ALT) text:
   Product images and thumbnails contain the product name, not just "click here" or even nothing. This will increase the relevance of the product and section names. Additionally this will also help on your site's accessibility.
6. Long product descriptions:
   Besides a short product description you can also have an extended description to provide keyword reach content. Use this feature to use alternative keywords that people may use instead of the main keywords.

Although there is no single magic solution for search engine rankings (otherwise everyone would be using it!), Q-Shop's shopping cart software implements many features that will help you in your efforts to get better rankings in search engines. But remember that the single most important factor is having pages with rich and relevant content.
