			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Top 10 Reasons to Host Your Miva Merchant Store with Morditech<br />
1.	<strong>Network </strong> &#8211; We can say with confidence that our network is better than any other Premier Miva Merchant Web Host.  Our servers are located in the Peer1 SuperNetwork which has 17 data centers, 21 points of presence and 13,000 miles of superior grade fiber. This network is super fast, extra reliable, and completely secure.<br />
2.	<strong>Servers</strong> – All of our Miva Merchant stores are served from enterprise level servers that are over resourced and never crowded. Our servers always run ultra fast and are optimized for best Miva Merchant performance and 1000 Mbit Connection speed.<br />
3.	<strong>PCI Compliance</strong> – Our servers are guaranteed to pass PCI compliance certifications. Please note that PCI compliance depends on you (the customer) as it does on the actual servers and network. PCI compliance certification also depends on the software that you add to the server. Adding software to your account that is not PCI compliant may result in PCI compliance failure but don’t worry, we will help you.<br />
4.	<strong>Support</strong> – We do not act cocky or speak down to you and we speak language that you can understand. Most support issues are resolved in one call or one email. Our technicians are trained to be very knowledgeable in Miva Merchant, SEO, web design, and general ecommerce. We can always give you advice or point you in the right directions even if your question is not web hosting related.  Emergency support is 24/7.<br />
5.	<strong>Prices</strong> – There are never extra fees, hidden fees,  or overage charges related to your web hosting. Many other Miva Merchant hosts charge a lower monthly fee then nickel and dime you with overage, and setup fees. At Morditech the price is the price and never more than that. We do however offer additional promotions and discounts.<br />
6.	<strong>Advice</strong> – We are not afraid of giving advice if you ask for it. Ask our technical support department advice on anything related to ecommerce, web hosting, SEO, best practices or Miva Modules and we will give you good expert information. If we do not know the answer we will find out or point you to someone that has more experience and expertise in that department.<br />
7.	<strong>Value Added Services</strong> – We have partners for all occasions. Most of our partners offer Morditech customers discounted rates. We are currently offering SSL Certificates, Merchant Account/ Gateways, domain names, Miva Merchant modules, Miva Merchant design &#038; implementaion, WordPress design and implementation, full SEO services, Miva Merchant Customization and far more than we list here.<br />
8.	<strong>Customer Service</strong> – Our customer service agents friendly, personable, and always helpful. If you have a problem then they can always help.  Our customer service reps never speak down to you and they always make sure you understand what they are saying.<br />
9.	Free Emergency Transfers – When you are having problems with your website and you need to transfer to a different host in a hurry then we are your company. FREE Emergency Miva  Merchant store, WordPress blog or standard business transfers 24/7 including Holidays, Nights &#038; Weekends. Call us 508-743-7758<br />
10.	<strong>Reliability </strong>– Aside from having the best network, fastest servers &#038; most reliable and secure hosting we also have 3 points of contact. Emergency support is available 24/7 and we can be contacted by telephone, live support (through our website) or by email. If you have an emergency it is always best to send an email with details if possible and give is a call.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This list describes what we considered to be the top 10 SEO modifications you can make on your Miva Merchant 5.5 <a href="http://www.mivamerchant.com/products/merchant/mm5/" target="_blank">shopping cart software</a></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Title tags </strong>- should be relevant and unique. By default the titles are usually the product or category name.</li>
<li><strong>Description Meta Tags</strong> – These tags are what potential customers see in your search engine results. Consider the description tag your sales pitch for that particular item or category.</li>
<li><strong>Keyword Meta Tag</strong> – Only use relevant and unique keywords here. Search engines know when you are stuffing them.</li>
<li><strong>H1 Tags</strong> – Place H1 tags around your product and category names headers on your PROD and CTGY pages. By default they have bold tags. This is an absolute MUST.</li>
<li><strong>Product &amp; Category Names </strong>– Make your product and category names relevant and unique when at all possible. Embellish your product and category names to differentiate your products from the thousands of other stores online selling the same thing.</li>
<li><strong>Category Header Descriptions</strong> – Make a brief, relevant, and unique a category description and includes images if possible and place it in the header of each category.</li>
<li><strong>Product Descriptions</strong> –Make sure you describe your product well and allow the description to support the product name. Integrate other search terms into your description that you believe customers may be searching for.</li>
<li><strong>Alt Image Tags</strong> – Make sure to put alt tags within your images so search engines know what the image is. Describe the image in a relative way. Usually people use the product name as alt tag or use something like ‘image of product name’. Adding a title element to your image tag will create a cool helpful tool tip pop-up.</li>
<li><strong>Use Short Links</strong> – You should convert the long default Miva Merchant links to short descriptive links. This ability is now built into Miva Merchant as of MM 5.5.</li>
<li><strong>Google Sitemap</strong> –Create a sitemap and submit it to Google. Submitting a sitemap to Google tends to get your pages crawled pretty quickly.</li>
</ol>
<p>BONUS TIP:</p>
<p>Create a blog to compliment your store (I recommend WordPress). Write relative content that focuses on your products or industry. Perhaps you could select a product and describe its different uses or tell stories about it. Google and other search engines have a tendency to crawl search engines more often than standard web pages. Make sure you have links from your blog to related items in your store.</p>
