Hi

Currently I am working on a website which uses Magento shopping cart. I haven't had any experience with it before and trying hard to learn how it works.

If anyone experienced can share some points which I should take care of while doing SEO, that would be a great help.

I know there are some duplicate content threat due to enabling “Use categories path for product URLs”. In Google's duplicate content page says such duplication as non-malicious but that doesn't mean duplicate threat is eliminated. -

Examples of non-malicious duplicate content could include:
* Discussion forums that can generate both regular and stripped-down pages targeted at mobile devices
* Store items shown or linked via multiple distinct URLs
* Printer-only versions of web pages
Actually when I put same product listed under multiple categories, it creates pages with exact product description under each categories.
e.g.
/category1/product1.html
/category2/product1.html
/category3/product1.html

This has to be addressed. And there will be similar stuffs needs attention which might have missed. Please put some lights on...

thanks in advance...

p.s. I've asked the same question in other forums also, just for the sake of hearing from various experiences.
