@Dog,

It doesn’t matter what your shipping conditions are, the key is to have a landing page for search engines. You can elaborate about policies on that page.

What is a good way to do this if some items qualify for free shipping and other don’t? Such as free shipping over $100?

Nice, simple approach to a keyword most sites probably miss. We’ve already added free shipping to our title and description tags (on the retail website we manage) – free shipping page will go up today. Thanks Linda!

very helpful post. Blogger outreach can be dicey and requires a very light touch. We can be a snarky bunch and if you hit us wrong, we may use your pitch in a post about bad pitches. I’ve certainly done that, and there’s a whole blog devoted to bad pitches.

my advice on blogger outreach – make sure you personalize the pitch, know the content of the blog, whether they ever review products. and please, please, don’t say “dear blogger”

I think that this post makes a great point. Often you will see sites utilizing ‘free shipping’ within their PPC campaigns while the same site is missing opportunities to drive traffic with this term organically.

edit: that should read “your site coupon” … it thought I was using an HTML tag and stripped it out.

Wow. This is one of those ideas that is so obvious in hindsight. Great and simple step! I’d add ” coupon” to the plan.
