Is image SEO worth it for e-commerce?
-
I have been trying to find any case studies of people who have optimized images for SEO for their e-commerce website, but haven't been able to find any case study, indicating obtained results. I am wondering how much increase in Google Image search traffic others have been able to obtain when optimizing their e-commerce images for image SEO.
I need this information to justify development resources needed for for example an image sitemap, changes to file names and alt texts, title tags and possibly EXIF data. File size is already ok.
Hope someone has experience with this and can share some results. Also, would be great if Moz would do a Whiteboard Friday about this (hint!).

Everything You Need to Know About Telemarketing & Telemarketing Software
What Is Telemarketing?
Telemarketing can be described as the process of generating leads, gathering market intelligence, making conversions, and increasing sales through the phone or phone calls.
While telemarketing is a very useful tool for small and medium businesses, it can also be a valuable tool for large businesses in terms of saving time and money over personal sales.
In other words, telemarketing is also known as internal selling and is a common form of direct marketing. Telemarketing is generally considered a better option than personal or door-to-door sales. At the same time, you do not need to pay a huge amount to the seller, as well as bear his costs.
Just find the perfect telemarketing software to reach out to customers and increase the sales of your business, that's all.
There are many contenders when it comes to telemarketing solutions. Consequently, choosing the right phone sales solution to meet all your business needs is not easy.
What is Telemarketing Software?
Telemarketing software is a type of Contact Center tool that helps organizations reach out to customers, generate leads, make conversions, and drive sales through phone calls, text messages, chats, video calls, emails, and more.
In simple terms, it is software that helps organizations achieve their goals using the telephone system, both in a direct and repetitive manner.
Features of Telemarketing System
- Inbound and outbound telemarketing to attract leads and connect with customers.
- Call log history to organize data to appropriately maintain your prospect's data.
- Works all over the world, i.e. you can use the software remotely from any device and from anywhere.
- Desktop apps, mobile apps, web apps, and cloud services are available to run smoothly.
- CRM assists with automated lead scheduling, customer information, call scheduling, email marketing, and more.
Advantages of Telemarketing Solutions
- It is easy to find customers with a software telemarketing system as it provides an effective means of communication between you and your potential customer. In addition, it allows you to clear all product and service-related inquiries from your customers and effectively helps you in attracting leads.
- This allows you to reach as many customers as possible, since you just need the customer's phone number, not their address, in order to meet them physically. Reaching out to customers by phone or email is far more cost-effective than direct or personal sales.
- One of the main benefits of telemarketing software is that it helps you manage your contact list, automate workflows, and send emails to your customers directly when needed. The toolbar will do everything for you according to the permission you have granted.
- The software also provides you with reports and analytics to determine where you are generating high volumes and where you are falling behind. This will help you understand buying behavior, interests, and buying patterns.

Do you have any competitive insights available? Do your competitor's product images show up in Google Images? Do Product Images show up in the SERPS?
-
Hi there,
It depends on how much competition do you have in your vertical. I have a client that gets a lot of traffic via images, but his niche is very small and his competitors do not have a good quality image, so he gets a lot of traffic. In that case, it works great for him. If you have a lot of competitors in your niche it might not be a good idea.

Long tail seo
Hi, I watched a video about long tail seo and it was mentioned there that finding keywords that have 0-10 search volume or no data at all may potentially have super high value for your specific business. Since opportunity score will tend to be high because there’s minimal searches or no data at all, the trick is to check the top 10 SERPs and if none of the 10 used your keyword then you may have found yourself a great long tail seo opportunity. Could anyone please clarify why that would be a great long tail seo opportunity? Thank you. -Michelle

SEO Implications when domain ownership and branding changes
I have a couple questions for the SEOMOZ community - and/or it's leader, Rand, if at all possible 🙂 It is very important for us to have good information. Scenario: Company A: National established leader in a niche product currently receives 49% of their traffic from branded keywords. Company A wants to protect and further grow it's gains that have been made in SEO even after it is acquired by Company B. Company B: Is a much larger company that acquires Company A. 1. What could happen to Google rankings when company A is bought out and Company B changes the registered owner and whois record? Could Google see this as a signal that the ownership has changed and then re-evaluate the ranking of Company A's website? 2. What would most likely happen if company B were to change the branding of Company A's established website? Company A currently receives about half of it's traffic from branded keywords. The acquiring company may want to change some of the SEO titles, ALT-Text, H1 tags, etc to also promote itself on the acquired company's site. Thank you all in advance for your help!

Local SEO- Multiple businesses at one address
Rand was talking about the importance of address format being exactly the same across all citations in last week's WBF http://www.seomoz.org/blog/local-seo-checklist-for-new-sites-whiteboard-friday. But what about business name? I have two unrelated businesses at the same address and am in the process of updating/adding citations for each. Will duplicate citations (identical addy, different business name) harm my Places ranking? Any suggestions? David

SEO MOZ Crawl Report Help
I recently bought a web page from a reputable Real Estate company (Real Estate Web Masters). They are known for their ability to write codes that index IDX feeds from MLS boards but they charge a huge rate compaired to other web devlopers in the Real Estate industry. After joining the SEO MOZ community and running a few SEO Bot Crawls I was scared when I reviewed the campaigns that I created. The report came back with Duplicate content on my blog and a bunch of on site errors and warnings. Below you will find a few quistions if you could help me with these answers I would appreciate it. 1. I have 28 URL's that show up on the error report that say they have duplicate content. Should I deleate all of these pages or erase all the content and try to make them more custom? I cant tell if this is a URL issue or a content issue. The bot reads the errors and sounds like it is trying to point out that there are more than one or two URL's on my page that point to the same blog post. If that is the problem then it is a programming issue. 2.Duplicate Page title= I have just created this blog so there are only about 30 submissions but almost every blog says it has a duplicate title? 3. Title element to long= how important is this to fix? I think this is also a programming issue becuase these title elements are created to show homes for sale within a certain price range say 200,000 to 300,000. There is a lot of desription within these tites on the homes that show up and there is a lot of homes for sale within that price range. So once again I think this would be a programming issue. I am trying to keep up with the Real Estate Web Masters on this subject but there SEO rates are $2500 a month and I am a start up company so I really need to learn how to do some of this on my own. Please advise! Relevant links My Web page Real Estate Web Masters The REW Forum I have asked for help from | I dont know if they will let you view this but I will update your response within that forum if that is ok with you.
