          Hi

          Say I am on a Product Listing page on ecommerce website and I have product tiles which contain images and name/price underneath them. Is it better to wrap the whole product tile (image and name/price) in an anchor tag (linking to their product page) or to wrap the image and the name/price underneath in anchor tags separately (linking to the product page) ?

          thanks

            To wrap anchor tags around a product, you'll typically want to create a hyperlink that, when clicked, leads to a page or resource related to the product

              A possible answer to this issue could be:

              "To effectively wrap anchor tags around a product tile, you should ensure that the anchor tag encloses the entire content of the product tile. This can be done by placing the opening <a> tag at the start of the product tile and the closing </a> tag at the end of it. Here’s a step-by-step approach:

              Start with the opening anchor tag before any of the product tile content. Add the href attribute to the anchor tag with the URL you want the user to be directed to when they click the product tile.

              Ensure that the anchor tag has display block (display: block;) style applied to it, so it takes up the full tile space. This is important for making the whole area clickable.

              Place all the HTML that makes up the product tile between the opening and closing anchor tags. This includes the image, product title, price, and any other information you wish to display.

              Close the anchor tag after all the product tile content.
              Remember to style the anchor tag to remove any default styling like underlines (text-decoration: none;) and ensure it inherits text colors (color: inherit;), so it blends seamlessly with your product tile design.

              Test the implementation across different browsers and devices to ensure the clickable area covers the entire tile consistently."

              By wrapping the entire tile in an anchor tag and ensuring the tag is displayed as a block-level element, users will be able to click anywhere on the tile to navigate to the product's detail page.

                To wrap anchor tags around a product tile effectively:

                Use a parent container for the product tile.
                Place the anchor tag within the container.
                Ensure the anchor tag covers the entire product tile for accessibility.
                Set the anchor's href attribute to the product's page URL.
                This approach allows users to click anywhere on the product tile to access more details, improving user experience.

                  It's generally better to wrap the whole product tile, including the image and name/price, in a single anchor tag. This approach provides a larger clickable area for users, improving the overall user experience and making it easier for them to access the product details.

                      Hi,

                      In most cases, it's better to wrap the whole product tile (image and name/price) in a single anchor tag linking to the product page. This approach provides a larger clickable area and offers a better user experience, as visitors can click anywhere within the tile to access the product details. It simplifies navigation and ensures consistency in user expectations when interacting with product listings on an e-commerce website.

                        Requiring customer agree to shipping terms at checkout

                        ecommerce conversion rate marketing

                        I work for an ecommerce company that has many of its shipments go by LTL freight. Our customer service team has issues with a few customers per month that aren't equipped to receive freight shipments which leads to returns and other issues. In an effort to better inform our customers, the customer service team is requesting that we add a checkbox to the checkout that requires customers to agree to our shipping and returns policy, including a link to the policy page. I am wondering how concerned people here would be that requiring the customer to check a box agreeing to those terms would lead to more customers abandoning during the checkout process. Or do you think it's not a concern? Thanks for your thoughts.

Although the sitemap has been submitted successfully, out of ~10000 links (we have ~10000 product pages), we only have 25 that have been indexed.

                        Alt Tags on multiple product images

                        Hi I work on SEO for an ecommerce site and wanted to find out how important it is to optimise all images with alt tags. We have alt tags in place, however have not optimised descriptions for the following example images: Front of cupboard Back of cupboard Side of cupboard etc Is this dangerous for SEO if these images all have the same alt tag? We have thousands of products so it would be a huge job to update these, but if it's crucial for SEO we can work through our priorities. Thank you!

                        Tags vs. Categories? What should I use?

                        I'm starting with a blog (self-hosted wordpress) and I'm thinking of the following content structure so that the readers are easily able to locate relevant content: Background: It's a blog which gives people relevant info about government jobs. To start with we will just be publishing information about these jobs but over a period of time also intend to post content that helps readers prepare for these jobs. In other words, right now it's just about detailed job notifications but in the coming months, we shall also post about preparation-related information. Typically, each of the job notifications can be bifurcated like: Jobs basis industry Banking Railways Clinical, etc. Jobs basis company ABC co. DEF co. XYZ co. etc. Jobs basis State / City City 1 City 2, etc. Jobs basis educational qualification Graduation Post-Graduation, etc. Now, I'm seriously confused how should I structure this data from the perspective of Categories & Tags such that it's reader as well as SEO-friendly. Do note that each of the government jobs post ideally falls in a couple of above mentioned categories. Thanks..

                        I am in the process of creating new images for my products to use on my website.  Are there any advantages or disadvantages of watermarking each image?  Is there an SEO impact good or bad?  I am aware that filename and Alt tags are important, but am unsure if google dislikes watermarked images.

                        Fewer keywords in title tag?

                        Hello, I have a title tag that includes three keywords and has a total of 59 characters. The third keyword is not very important. If I eliminated the third keyword, leaving the first two (for a total of 48 characters), would the ranking value of the first two keywords increase? Does including the third keyword dilute the value of the first two? Thank you!

                        One site with one product or multi product website

                        Lets suppose that i have 10 NICHE products under me. Should i make one site for each product or one site overall. If i make 1 site for each product i get several advantages Domain name has keyword Title tags etc will be dedicated to one keyword only. Disavantage - Backlinking for each domain will become tougher. Advantage of one site onl Good management Seo / backlinks becomes easier Blogging to attract traffic becomes easier Can target a lot of keywords through business blogging Disadvantages Can become messy with unimportant keywords gaining importance. SO WHAT DO YOU THINK??? One site per product or One site for all products?
