Where you want the logo to show up? In the footer?

With every modern browser you inspect the html code of every website. You should just look for the links. Let's take your signature in this forum: As you can see, the link has a rel="nofollow". This means for google: oh I shouldn't follow this links. In other words this link won't give you a lot of linkpower. Maybe even no power. Are such nofollow links worthless? No. They still bring users trough direct clicks.

have you got a a code snippet from them?

I think you should just try it out. It should not slow down... But I noticed that on my page, the facebook fanpage plugin slows down. So you never know...

Hello When I go on a cms page I havethe following canonical tag in the head: <link rel="canonical" href="https://www.spielezar.ch/index.php?controller=cms"> On the live demo store, it's the same. What is this about? Looks like a bug to me.

Hm I think it's just there since. 1.0.2. I should update anyway :D

Is this a new field? I am still on 1.0.1. I don't have it. But I can see it on your demostore...

I get the following error in js console: Google Maps API error: MissingKeyMapError

@rand0m do you have practical experience with erpnext? I have no experience with any erp system. I don't know what is good, what is needed. That's why it's hard for me to push any interface project. If somebody is experienced and would initiate a crowdfunding campgain, I would surely support.

Hello In PS we had always a google map in the order. It was beside the address. In thirty bees I don't see this anymore. Was this removed? Do you still have it?

Just found this example on a german blog (https://www.ecommerce.jetzt/one-page-checkout-fuer-den-schnellen-einkauf/). From a design perspective, I love it!

Does anyone of you use forums to set links? I noticed that in my niche it's quite easy to set links there. They aren't marked as "nofollow". When I watch out for relevant blogs (comments), its always "nofollow". Are forum links valuable? Is there any difference between link in the post itself or if it's in the signature?

Yeah I think so too!

How would you achieve that @dprophitjr? Looks to me, as a change in php is needed, to have a clean solution.

I just talked a little to lesley. Michael has worked on the checkout process. Tried a lot of things, but it has to be postponed for the future. Surely we all know about the importance of the checkout, but there are some drawbacks, if it's changed now. If the core code is changed, a lot of modules and themes would break. That would be horrible at this point. So the checkout has to be modified with help of modules. But this also not so easy as we all know from this ps "onepage modules". They don't really work stable. In Short: As far as I understand, the checkout will be reworked, when thirtybees breaks compability to ps 1.6. It would be too early, to do this now.

I don't know what @mdekker worked on it the checkout process. In general there are a lot of plans for thirty bees. I am very happy to see, that we have a lot of merchants here, who are willing to invest something, to get a better software. It's great that the elasticsearch module could be funded. I hope the development will be a success.

Yeah it's a very critical aspect. It's actually the heart of every store. But I think it would be wrong to develop is as a module. Not sure, if Michael is working on it at the moment.

To be honest I haven't any experience with ERP Systems. ERPnext seems to be very powerful and it would be a logical solution for thirtybees. I assume an interface between tb and erpnext would be very complex, right? Why are we thinking about ERP? - We sell many bundles and have no control about the stock. - There is no warning system, when the stock drops under a critical level. - When we get a delivery from our supplier, we have to change all stock informations by hand. - We have no history at all about goods movements (IN and OUT) It seems, that there is no intergration for PS right now: https://github.com/frappe/erpnext/issues/2241 @spidawebs thx for the reminder. I really forgot about this option.

Hello Is there any ERP system, which is working with thirtybees? How are you handling your stock managament?

That's a good idea! Why don't you use the thirtybees blog module?

@nickon said in What's the best way to optimize product pages?: To rank in google you will have to give google what it wants. That's what all is about. And google mainly want's good content. I have never said you have to optimize 10000 products. I prefer to rank with category pages, if the search intention is about buying. Only if it's a clear brand search, I will invest time, to optimize a product site. But to be honest 90% of my invested seo time, goes into our blog. About which metadata are you talking about?

@moy2010 said in What's the best way to optimize product pages?: Use social networks, paid ads, create great content as @wakabayashi says. There are just so many ways to get customers to visit your website, try not to focus on SEO and get stressed about not having a top position. Yeah this is true. I am not really strong with social networks. But what you can try: search for groups, which are talking about your topic and seed your articles there.

Maybe it's about the search intention. I recently heard something like that: When google understands/believs, that the user want's to buy something, you can only rank with a shop site (category or product site for example). If google understands, that 99% don't want to buy anything, then you wan't rank with a shop site. With shop site I don't mean the domain, but the art of the site (cart buttons & stuff). I really don't know, if this is true. It's surely not as strict, as this guy told me. But it's sounds somehow logical to me.

That's normal. Our customer don't link us too. Or at least 99% of them won't like us. But in the example above, I will search for backgammon federations and clubs. I will write them, that we have made content about backgammon and asking for a link. I take time to write this things. I always write personal. Make custom compliments for their website and so on. You are right. It's really hard to get quality backlinks. Still for your competitiors it's not easier. So in a niche you don't have to have hundreds of links. Is it your first project? Then all is even harder. When you have done some projects in the past, you can get link from there, use the expierence and the contacts. Really most important is: Never give up. What is your website?

I really have to disagree with you @nickon and @MockoB. We have really good google rankings with in some niches. It was already good with ps. The time when SEO was a technical thing is over. Sure you have to follow the most important guidelines. But nowdays you get the rankings with great content. If you have valuable content for your customers, you will rank well. If you don't rank, these could be the reasons: - Give Google time. I always calculate with one year, till I expect good rankings. It's depending on the niche of course. - You have no quality links. Links are still important. They can boost a lot. - Your content is not as good as you think. It's very important to understand the user intention. Take them as early on their customer journey. Let me show you an example from our latest project: https://www.spielezar.ch/blog/spielregeln/backgammon-spielregeln We sell boardgames, but this article does just explain the rules of backgammon. Nothing else. We invest a lot of time, to write better articles than the competitors. Put nice pictures in it. Look for good internal linking. Will this raise our conversion rate? Surely not. It goes down. 99% of the visitors of this tutorial won't buy anyting. 90% of the readers even leave the page immediately after they found their needed information. Still all these articles are making our business working. People get to know our brand. You generate trust. Google understands, that we are an authority in boardgames. It will not only help us to rank for "backgammon rules" also in general. You can hope for some links with such content. In short: your revenue will go up! This shop is only online for 6 months. The rankings are still modest. But we have already overtaken some five year old competitors in google. This guys are on magento. But that doesn't matter. They could be on ps or tb or whatever. They don't have any great content.
