Generating a meta-description
-
What are some things I should know before implementing a process whereby (public) user account data is used to generate a meta-description? I can't find much information in the existing forums.
Are rich snippets a better option in 2015?

Hey,
Thanks for the help
Let's say a firm going on to my website where the firm needs to set up a profile.
We want informative information to appear when I search for the firm's profile. I'm proposing using the data used to generate the profile to generate a meta-description that will appear when searched.
I'm relatively new to this so I'm not sure if this is normal or advisable, do you have any thoughts?

If you're going to automatically generate the description then I suppose you want to take in to consideration how that description is used by the SERP's. If your description is too long then it won't all be displaying on the SERP and you get the dreaded ...
I'm not sure really there is anything else you need to consider, although obvious data protection rules apply if you're using user data in such a way.

I am a little confused by the question. Are you able to clarify? I am unsure of the process whereby the public generate a meta description.

Multi channel product descriptions & dupe content issues
Hi When filling in inventory files to upload to the likes of Amazon clients will usually be copying and pasting the product descriptions from the website product descriptions into the Amazon product description field Should they really be re-written to avoid dupe content issues ? I presume not since it is the official description of the product. Please note that i'm talking here about the manufacturers website/product descriptions and their own Amazon shop descriptions. So theirs is the original authoritative description. Cheers Dan

ECommerce & Reviews when generated by 3rd Party uses Javascript
Hi all, I am trying to optimize our product pages and I know one of the important factors is showing customer reviews. While we have plenty of reviews to show they are collected by a third party (Shopper Approved) and the way we have been told to display them on our pages is via a Javascript. My question is, is this sufficient for search engines to be able to crawl and interpret the Javascript or are we missing out on user generated content since it is displayed via Javascript. If so are there best practices or recommendations to help us? Thank you!

Complex navigation structure leaving me puzzled with Meta keywords! Would love some help...
Hi there So I have a main navigation, It includes 5 categories Each category contains 4-6 sub categories Within these sub categories, there are 6 - 10 sub sub categories Its a rather complex navigation but allows the end user to land exactly where they want without much mooching. Now my issue is the use of keywords. Should I be feeding the keywords used in the main category through to the sub category and the sub sub category as they are all linked or should I use unique keywords for each sub/sub/sub category? I have added an image of the nav layout so you can see how it works. I hope that makes sense? Could love some help! dHve8.jpg

How many meta tags are appropriate?
How many meta tags are appropriate? There is a page that ranks above me that has many more than I do. It has (I have removed the content of each to give a description of the type of content): I only use meta tags for keywords and description, robots. Should I have more? Thanks.
