Hi all,
I'm going to start working for a customer for their ecommerce website and wondered about the pit falls of having too many keywords on the ecommerce page. Their first page is overloaded with the keyword and not much text. If you could spare a couple of minutes for some advice it would be greatly appreciated.

    Too many keywords is going to hurt the ranking because Google does not like that.

      As far as I know 5-6% use keywords is better. What do you think about this?

        2-4% Exact match keywords and 3-4% of Keyword variation or Longtail keyword are fine.

    In my experience, first pages on any website are and work most like the road signs you see. you have 20-30 seconds to engage the surfer in whatever it is that you are selling. Before, you could do that with the assistance of flash animations. People change and today they do not care that much about animation.

    But they do not like to spend more than 30 seconds reading some sales pitch. So an overflowing keyword text it will cause three main problems:
    a) you are going to loose the attention of the reader. If you repeat a brand can be accepted as we are wired that way. repeating keywords...not so good.
    b) Google is going to toss you to the last place in the rankings. Or delete your listing altogether
    c) the text you put will not make the best sense.

    Hello all,
    Thank you very much taking your time to reply to my question. The keyword is hampers, and its a sales pitch. They want you to buy off their website.

    I understand the keyword has to decrease, but I also understand that the page can have the products keyword listed many times, as Google will realise its an eCommerce page.

    So the rules still applies, unique content is king for eCommerce and get the customer to what they want, as soon as possible.

    I don't think there has much more different in doing eCommerce SEO. The technique is same like other websites.

    For home/important pages of ecommerce websites we should maintain text/html ratio. We should not put too many keywords, as it is considered as keyword stuffing. Always maintain keyword density as 1.5-2%. If you disobey this rule Google might rank down your site.
    For your case you may remove some unnecessary keywords and put only main keywords, but not forcefully. With keyword make perfect sentences.

      @yukon I'm wondering they always use this kind of forum posting anywhere knowing that they are sellers of the service.

    Too many keywords is not an Issue, the issue there is the image size and resolution. too many heavy image size could slow down the site loading time.
