24. 6 Tips To Help Your SEO for the Holidays
1. Audit Time – dig into those log files for broken links & 404s well
before Black Friday
2. Internal Links - switch around internal links for Holiday Best Sellers
What sold last year during the holidays that can be better
promoted on the site this year – this helps SEO too!
3. Create a “Gift Ideas” Page & Link to it from Home Page, Facebook &
Twitter
4. Avoid any Link Building – there’s no time!
5. Coordinate Meta Descriptions with Holiday Offers and add a
Call-to-Action
“Motorcycle Gift Ideas from Helmet City.com. Free 2 Day
Shipping and Free Returns until December 15th! Call 1-888-343-
5638”
6. Keep a list of all changes and make sure to revert in January!

Notes de l'éditeur
In terms of the agenda for today, we’re going to start by talking a little be about the challenges with SEO on ecommerce sites that prevent that SEO work from getting executed.Then we’re going to give a quick overview of our product priority module and talk about how it goes about solving these problems.We’re also going to hear from John at Helmet City as we go through an SEO case study on their siteThen we’re going to end by talking about a few quick things that you can do to SEO your site in time for Black Friday.And of course, I’m going to save ample time for questions at the end.
Ok, so first let’s dive into the challenges with executing on page SEO on ecommerce sites.
The main problem is that Search Engine Optimization is nearly impossible to manage well at scale.You have one home page, several categories, and probably thousands of product pages.This means that the home page probably can be managed manually, but the category and product pages are nearly impossible to keep up with on a regular basis without technology.
Now I want to walk you through how our module is able to do this…
Now, you might be wondering why this all matters.It’s because when a direct browser goes to your site you want them navigating to your home page, then category, then product page where they transact.In search, the searchers with intent to buy should be entering at the category and product page level. The broad keyword terms go to the home page, but the action based terms go to the product and category pages.That’s where the opportunity is.
More specifically, the ROI of long tail queries is often much higher as someone searching for “helmets” is in a much different stage of the buying cycle than someone who knows exactly what they want and types that search into the search engine. Conversion rates are higher as the keyword term gets more specific.
So let’s look a bit deeper at a case study on how this has worked for Helmet City, one of miva’s customers.
