best SEO friendly shopping cart?

[VideosWork]

In your opinion, what is the best search engine friendly shopping cart? SEO friendly like:

•Header 1 w/ Product Name
•Meta Title
•Meta Description
•Meta Keywords
•Product Descriptions
•Alt Tags for Images
•Bread Crumps
•Page Name with keywords and hypens

Thanks!

I do pretty good with OSCommerce, but it took a few modifications to get it more search engine friendly. The other slight problem is that the pages are tables, would do better with css, which I could probably change. Out of the box, it's not that great. But it is open source and has a huge community with plenty of mods.

I guess I am not too much help, just my experience with what I use, so if you run across it, you'll have some idea about it.

In my opinion, Magento is the best there is.

X-cart has a lot of SEO features. Volusion also.

You will notice, however, that the search engines are putting less emphasis on meta tags and more on back linking. I have got sites to the top of the search engines with minimum on-page SEO and a good back linking strategy in competitive keywords with great success.

So I suggest you focus on building backlinks, one way links are even better.

I have also heard some good thinks about Presta Shop. You can check them out. As of OScommerce, they got a really large community backing it up and is a good start, however, in my opinion Presta shop has more features to toy with and is easy to customize.

Prestashop is great unless you intend to accept payments. This is literally the ONLY Ecom package that charges you a ton of $$$ to add payment modules, which are free on Zencart, Magento etc.

Do some serious checking around before spending a ton of time setting up your ecom site and finding out you've got to spend money on much needed addons. Not much fun having a site with great SEO and no way to accept payments...

I'm gonna give my vote to CRE loaded. Light weight, but with all the necessary things and SEO friendly

Hello, PrestaShop has some good SEO features

Try Zencart, it is much better than OSCommerce. I used to have OSCommerce, but they didn't update the software in years and very tedious to install plugins.

Magento is the best I Think.
