How to apply for the project in the freelancer for opencart

Respected Sir,

Personal things:
I am from Nepal and work as the Opencart and PHP programmer, in Nepal the lifestyle is so cheap so the costing above is earning of 2 days so i am going to start the things and hope that can complete in the 2 days.
Opencart Version that we are going to use is Version 1.4.9.5 as this is the stable one upto yet other are on development process.

Ok, now what are the things that i needed are:
1. Registered domain name
2. Space and the Cpanel information
3. Payment gateway that you are going to use.
4. Shipping Method that you are going to use.
5. Templates of opencart compatible

With the information above i can start to work.
$70 will only include installation on the domain name that you provided.
and setting of the payment gateway that are available in the opencart nor the costing will be more and same for the shipping method (if included in the opencart then the costing within nor extra charge will be included).

About the template
Buy the template that is compatible with the opencart version 1.4.9.5.
Ok if you are going to make from me then prices are as follows:
1. If you want to register from me then the extra cost is $15 and provide me the domain name that you want to register if available then i will register it nor suggest the right one for your store.
2. For space the costing is $120 per year for the 500Mb space
3. For template development we are charging $175 as the design will be peculiar and different nor you can buy from the opencart template store and took extra 5 days.

As soon as the above needed things are fulfilled i can start to work.
And do you need the images or I can upload images myself and set the pricing myself?
There will be back-end from where you can u can upload your product details, category, enable and disable things and so on and once installed you can check how easy it is to insert the product and make them search engine friendly.

Thanking You

Ultimate SEO Guide for OpenCart

Ultimate SEO Guide for OpenCart

by ozone100 » Fri May 06, 2011 11:19 pm

For those of you who don’t know me I work fulltime doing search engine optimization, social media marketing, and general internet marketing. I have worked on many large scale successful e-commerce websites and have a strong knowledge of SEO, especially related to e-commerce websites.

I have helped out a few people in the forums by auditing their websites and making recommendations. I have found that many of these websites have the same general problems and I would like to share these findings with everyone. By making these changes to your website you are sure to see an improvement in rankings and hopefully and improvement in traffic.

Problem: Bad choice of keywords.
Explanation: Keywords are everything in SEO. You need make sure you are using keywords that people are searching for and that are not too competitive (good luck ranking for “weight loss”). More importantly, you need to make sure you are using these keywords in your meta title and in your page copy. If you don’t have the right keywords, your pages will struggle to rank.
Solution: Use Google’s Keyword Tool (https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal) to see how many monthly searches certain keywords have. Just enter some keyword phrases that you think apply to your website and Google will suggest a list of keywords along with the monthly searches for each one. The rule of thumb is only one or two keyword phrases per page. The tool also has a competition meter showing you how competitive each keyword is. This meter refers to the competition in Google AdWords (pay-per-click) and while it will give you a general idea of the search competition, it is not very accurate.

Problem: Lack of keyword usage in page copy and meta titles.
Explanation: One of the biggest factors that cause a page to rank is keyword usage in the meta title. That said, if you have very little or no copy on a page, you will be severely disadvantaged and most likely will not rank well for the target keywords.
Solution: Place your targeted keywords at the beginning of the meta title and try to keep your meta title below 70 characters (Google cuts off after 70 characters). Make sure you have a good amount of copy on your pages with your keywords used throughout it. The general rule of thumb is to use your keywords 1-3 times for a short copy block and 4-6 times for longer page copy. For a great guide outlining how to optimized a page check out http://www.seomoz.org/blog/perfecting-k ... timization. (This is a MUST READ for all e-commerce webmasters)

Problem: Duplicate Content
Explanation: Duplicate content refers to exact or even similar text that is found on multiple web pages. This can occur either within a website or between multiple websites. If you copy and paste your product descriptions from the manufacturer or another source, chances are those pages won’t rank well because of the way Google deals with duplicate content. Google can penalize the rankings of that page and sometimes even remove it from the index. If there is too much duplicate content throughout the website as a whole (100s or 1000s) of pages, there is a possibility your website as a whole will be penalized and your traffic will drop significantly. Lately duplicate content has been a bigger focus in the SEO community because of the “Farmer/Panda” update in February that penalized many sites for having large amounts of duplicate content.
Solution: Make sure your copy is unique and write unique copy. This is obviously easier said than done when you have hundreds or thousands of products. If you do have a large site than just focus on your most valuable pages and work your way down. There was a recent article that addressed this issue in great deal: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/fat-pandas-and-thin-content.

Problem: Not enough inbound links from other websites.
Explanation: Having links to your website from other websites has the HIGHEST impact on rankings than any other factor. If your website is new and has less than 10 inbound links, don’t be surprised if your pages aren’t ranking well.
Solution: I wish there was a nice step by step guide for building links to your website but there’s not. Link building is the probably the most difficult part of SEO, which is probably why Google values it so highly (it’s not easy to manipulate). That said, here are some strategies you can use to get links to your website: http://www.seobook.com/archives/001792.shtml.

Note: Do not buy links unless you know what you’re doing. Buying links is against Google’s guidelines and by doing so you risk getting your website completely removed from the index. Please do not fall for the “1000 links for $10 deals.”

Problem: Not using search engine friendly URLS.
Explanation: Having keywords in the URL improves your page’s rankings and increases the chance that someone will click your page in the search engine results page (people tend to click on bolded text more). Also, longer URLs don’t rank as well as shorter URLS. Compare yourdomain.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=37 with yourdomain.com/sports-footwear/
Solution: Use SEO Friendly URLs. In your admin panel, navigate to System -> Settings and click on the “Server” tab. Here you can tell OpenCart to “Use SEO URL’S”. Make sure you follow the instructions and rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess.

Problem: Two versions of the website exist – http://www.yoursite.com and yoursite.com (non-www)
Explanation: In Google’s eyes, every URL is a different webpage. When Google crawls your website it sees two different pages even though to you it is the same page (http://www.yoursite.com and yoursite.com). In general Google is pretty good about deciding which page to use, but with e-commerce sites that have 100s or 1000s of pages, don’t take that chance. Also, if a http://www.yoursite.com has 10 links and yoursite.com (non-www) has 10 links, you are dividing your “link juice.” By consolidating these pages with a 301 redirect you can get the benefit of all 20 links to one page.
Solution: Choose which version you want, www or non-www, and stick with it. Assuming you have a .htaccess file, 301 Redirect the non-www version to the www version, or vice versa, in the .htaccess file (Instructions: http://www.seobook.com/archives/001714.shtml). Also, go to Google WebMaster Central and navigate to Site Configuration -> Settings. Then next to “Preferred domain” choose the version you would like Google to use.

I hope this helps, if you have any questions feel free to post them here and I will do my best to answer them.

To the developers of OpenCart here is my SEO wish list:

Ability to add rel=”canonical” tag to category and product pages

Custom meta titles for category and manufacturer pages

Custom meta titles and descriptions for information pages

Breadcrumbs that don’t link to the non-seo friendly URL of the page for information pages

Test Account setting of DIBS and making it live

For test acount you need

<input type="hidden" name="test" value="yes" />

You can get the document in the following link

http://tech.dibs.dk/10_step_guide/your_own_test/

One error that i have face is the 

No Paytype(s) test parameter missing 

in mine this error was due to the Merchant Id different that the real one.

Test credit cart i have use is

Card number for the VISA:4711100000000000

Month: 06
Year: 24

CVC:684

This work for to check that the payment is successful.

Code i have used

<form action="https://payment.architrade.com/paymentweb/start.action" method="post" id="checkout">
  <input type="hidden" name="merchant" value="---------" />
  <input type="hidden" name="amount" value="123456" />

  <input type="hidden" name="calcfee" value="yes" /> 

<input type="hidden" name="test" value="yes" />
  <input type="submit" />

</form>

Remove this line to make the site live

<input type="hidden" name="test" value="yes" />

Your own test

With the help of our test system, virtually any situation imaginable can be tested prior to going online.

Test mode start-up

To place DIBS in the test mode, two things must be carried out first:

1. Your shop should have activated the test mode with DIBS. New shops always start with the test mode activated, but the test mode is deactivated as soon as the shop goes “live” (so test cards can no longer be used). If you wish to activate the test mode again at a later date, this can be arranged by contacting us at support(at)dibs.dk.
   
2. A CGI variable must be declared, which notifies DIBS that tests are being conducted. This variable is inserted as a “hidden field” together with the other variables:
   <input type="hidden" name="test" value="foo"/>

Once this variable is declared, the transaction will not be sent to the acquirer, but will instead be handled by the DIBS test system. When a transaction is carried out, the test transaction can be seen in DIBS Administration, where the transaction can also be completed. Test transactions can be distinguished from actual transactions, since test transactions are shown in italics in the administration and also feature the addition of (test) next to the indication of the card type.
If you have integrated the capture functionality with the help of DIBS-API, it is also possible to test this communication.

Test module structure

The module is set up so that certain card numbers give certain replies. If a card number, contrary to those described below, is inadvertently sent, the reply will be “Rejected by acquirer”. Examples of other error codes are:

• Card type not accepted by this shop
• Order ID must be unique
• Too few amount fields for split payments
• Control numbers are required by this shop
• Card does not match the card type shown

Test card numbers

Below is a list of card numbers relating to various card types which return different error types (or are approved) so you can test your own system’s reactions to these errors.
Test card numbers are composed of a prefix and a postfix. The prefix indicates the card type and the postfix indicates the desired result. I.e.:
Test card number = prefix + postfix
Example of a 4-numeral prefix:
You wish to test the authorization of a Dankort, and to have it approved:
Prefix for Dankort: 5019
Code for approval: 100000000000
Test-Dankort with an approved authorization: 5019100000000000

For properly writing the URL in opencart

This url is not google friendly
index.php?route=product/product&product_id=42

what we have to do is perform the URL rewriting.
as index.php/produt/product_id/42/product.php

Site map is done in the XML base and is search engine friendly.
Image tags should also have to be maintained if image tag is not found use the product name
Structuring in <div> is also important as per the W3C
Should also have unique content don't copy of other

In opencart admin/controller/feed/googlesitemap.php does most of the work to contact with the google

Thanking you
