SEO Help?

[Mike_B1]

I've started working on my sites SEO. When I google my site's URL, I get the following:

Zen Cart!, The Art of E-commerce
hrtsdesire.com/
Zen Cart! : - Outdoor Living Lighting Candles & Scents Home Fragrance Fountains Home Decor Bath & Body Luminous Visions Collectibles Just For Her For The ...

How can I change the "Zen Cart!, The Art of E-commerce" to "Hearts Desire", and remove the "Zen Cart! :".

I'm assuming this info is something that Googles BOT got from the site.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance.

tip: copy this file to your CUSTOM folder before editing.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I made an overide in the /includes/languages/english/template_name directory.

I think it worked. The title bar on explorer reflects the changes I made. I'll check google in a few days to verify.


Again, thanks for the prompt response.

Glad you asked :)

The CUSTOM folders act as an override system, which means that:

1. You are not editing the original file(s) so if you mess up, you can just delete the file and zencart will revert back to it's default values. It's not really a 'backup' as such, because the CUSTOM files are those that actually get used, it is the origianl file(s) that effectively become the 'backup'

2. Files in your CUSTOM folders will not get overridden with ZenCart upgrades. If you modify the original files, future upgrades can become a nightmare, because you'll need to compare the changes and re-do them with every upgrade.

Check the FAQ files for more information.

Thanks, I will check the FAQ out.. I can't find a Custom folder. I'm using V1.5.0 ...

You might find it usefull to look in the "Template Customization/ Building Overrides" section of the FAQ. It cleared up many questions I had about modifiying my site.

That's probably because you haven't created it/them. They don't come as standard and you have to create them. Creating new Custom folders should be one of your first jobs before you even start adding goods. It saves you so much trouble and time later.
