Best Practice For Canonical URLS

Hi everyone,

I haven't used reddit much for anything besides lurking and memes, so its time to try it for crowdsourcing information.

I'm looking to implement a rule set for a very large catalog of products, where the products themselves can fall into many categories and have a large number of URLS.

We are a reseller of these products for major national brands and have recently built out a large Magento store.

Our taxonomical structure is similar to:

Domain/Parent-Category/Sub-Category/Item-Category/Feature-Category/URL-Key

A product might be in the following categories:

Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/Item-1/Feature-1
Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/Item-1/Feature-2
Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/Item-1/
Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/
Domain/Parent-1/
Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/Item-2/Feature-1
Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/Item-2/Feature-2
Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/Item-2/
Domain/Parent-1/Sub-1/
Domain/Parent-1/

Generally our URL keys are long chain and descriptive and follow a similar format:

{Manufacturer} {Part Number} {Item Category} Dimension 1 x Dimension 2 x Variable 1 x Variable 2

I'm wondering what everyone's thoughts are here? Should we use a category chain to get keyword value from it, or just drop all of the categories and go with Domain/URL Key, or use the brand landing page, Domain/Brand/Url Key.

Thanks for the conversation!

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

are my YT keywords being ignored?

I have 3hr+ YT videos, so I chapter them out quite extensively. I've read in a couple places if I have too many keywords just grouped together they will all be ignored. Are my keywords being ignored...or are they even being crawled...through my chapters section? Also, is hashtagging in a chapter name good, bad, or not at all relevant? example chapters: Bookmarks: 0:00 Intro 4:25 Little Panda #littlepanda 13:04 Royale With Cheese Megaways #royalewithcheesemegaways 24:48 Big Bass Bonanza #bigbassbonanza 33:02 Book of Cats #bookofcats 44:11 Tractor Beam #tractorbeam submitted by /u/bauerwelson [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/3Gx8IPZ
