Can someone explain what you place in the new product tag box for products, also what is Tag Cloud, I notice you can get a module for this but what would you use it for.
Sorry for dumb questions.

Tags are like keywords that are common amongst articles, products, etc. useful for cross referencing or just adding additional search targets that may not be part of the main name or description
Example
Product Name: Apple Ipod
Product Description: The apple ipod is an mp3 player
Product Tags: Apple, ipod, Steve Jobs, mac, macintosh, mp3, zune, music, headphones, iphone
Please note that I searched the forum before posting this (that's how I found this thread).

I sell some expensive beads in the Premium category. However, the word "premium" doesn't appear in the name for those beads, so I put the word "premium" in the product tag field. I just searched for the word "premium" and none of the items with that product tag came up. I was careful to search all categories. So this feature isn't working for me.

Ideally, what would be perfect for me is if the search function searched (1) names, (2) model names and (3) product tags by default, but not descriptions. However, I don't want to put anyone to the trouble of having to figure out the code.
Code: Select all
<a href="http://domain.com/index.php?route=product/search&keyword=Tag">Tag</a>

The short answer is no.jcgadgets wrote:I just want to settle this question: do search engines use the product tags? Can product tags help SEO of search engines other than the one on your site?
In theory there might be a tiny bit of help, but nothing significant. Search engines read all the text on the product page, including the tags -- so adding the product tag is the same as using that word in the description. Thus a product with the text "Neato Widget Extreme" and tagged with "extreme" is pretty similar to having a description of "neato widget extreme extreme." But the fact that it's a tag isn't helping you much beyond just having the word appear.
Google is pretty good at not listing results for duplicate content within a site, thus all that content that appears when you click on the tag link generally won't be listed, because it's all duplicate content.

first of all use product tags correct that means all tags shopuld be sepereated with a ","
so word1,word2,word3,word4,word5
never use a space between words.
define your product tags carefully, you can use misspelling or odd spelling, but make sure you use those tags throughout the entire range of products thas could be difined with those words.
when someone clicks on that product tag, all product wth that thags wil show up and google willpick up that word associated with that word.
When applied correct most versions of oc will use tags for internal site searc, exept some old 1.4.x versions, but there is a vqmod that will fix that, (at least i have one made for that)
