Set different META desc etc for a product on multisite

HI,

Background
I have three shops running via Multi Site. The main one(SiteA) , plus two additional sites(SiteB, SiteC), which are run and maintained for other people. The Sites B & C, have some of my products also listed and I have been told this will affect my SEO ranking as information is duplicated.

For example . . . . ProductX is active on all three sites currently and its Description, Keywords, META Description etc are effectively duplicated(as same on all sites) and this will effect my rankings etc i have been informed.

Question
Is there a way that i can define different descriptions, Keywords, META Description for the same product depending on the website URL?

Thanks for the link Labeshops! Was searching in the extension area for different things and didn't see that appear once!

It looks really promising, and from the comments it seems your happy with the results?

Thanks Andy

Yes, it works well. I haven't had the time yet to go back and change a lot of what I already had in, but have been using them for new products added.

Now I just wish someone would do this for category descriptions.

Yeah that will be my next mission to find out, although i saw someone mention it in comments and guess the hasn't decided to make that addition or even a separate extension.

I think i have thought of a idea for this issue, with the categories. Its a little long winded, but essentially set up duplicate categories but assign them to certain stores only. This way you could have different META descriptions and Text descriptions for the same categories.....?

But then when you are assigning products to categories, how would you know which was which? Not a great work around.

The number of categories can affect the speed of your store too.

Hi,

Please take a look at my extensions that I have created to create unique meta data for Categories and Products under Multi Stores for Opencart 2.0
