LiveCart is optimized for search engines out of the box.
Page URL's
Page URLs include relevant search keywords that help to achieve better positions in search engine rankings.
LiveCart uses clean and static URLs that do not contain useless variables and include possible search keywords. For example:
Nokia N71 product page:
http://demo.livecart.com/nokia-n71.3430
Cell Phone category page with applied Motorola brand filter and Bluetooth feature filter:
http://demo.livecart.com/shop/cell-phones.51/
motorola-m34,features-bluetooth-v3626
Page Titles and Headings
Page titles and H1 tags include product and category names.
Meta Tags
Meta description tags contain product and category descriptions. The meta description tag content is also displayed in search results themselves, so catchy and meaningful descriptions alone can lead to more search engine traffic. For example, see indexed pages from LiveCart demo website.
XML Sitemaps
LiveCart automatically generates XML sitemap files that contain URL's to all the product category and detail pages of your store. The sitemaps allow help the search engine crawlers find your pages faster, so it will take less time for your pages to appear in search engine indexes. Besides, with LiveCart you can submit the sitemaps to Google, MSN, Yahoo, Ask and other search engines with a single click!
Valid XHTML
An often overlooked factor in search engine optimization is valid HTML code. Valid HTML helps search engines index your site better, which can result both in more pages in search engine index as well as better rankings.
