How To Avoid Duplicate Content

 
avatar

We have all made the same mistake. We open a new online store and we use the descriptions that are given to us.

Problem - Everyone else is using that description as well.

Problem - Search engines want to show a variety of results when a search is performed

Problem - Only one of you will make it to the Top 10

Solution - Write unique content for your product descriptions

Now I know this sounds like a lot of work, but the results will pay off!

So let's create a strategy that you can implement right here and right now.

  1. Make a commitment to rewrite at least 5 product descriptions a day. Start with the products that are hot sellers.

  2. Write about the product and think about what your customers want to know. This will improve your conversions and your search engine rankings.

  3. Answer the following questions:

*Who is the product for? *What does the product do? *When do you need this product? *Why do you need this product? *Where can you use this product? *How can this product help you?

Remember to do this each and every day. Google loves to see a website with fresh new content that is being updated. In no time you will see those rankings and conversion rates begin to climb!
