I am adding a "reccomended products" page to my content site and was wondering which way might be the best. (As far as search engines and sales go)
(1)The product page would have a brief description of each product with a link going to a dedicated page that I create for that specific product.
(2) The product page would have a brief description of the product and then a link directly to the merchant's site. (so this would put several products on one page which I suspect might dilute the engine's view of the page)
The only reason I think number one would be the best choice is that the individual product pages I create will get a better listing in the engines...but this is new to me and I have no idea.
Traffic is relatively low at this point but I am adding a great deal of my own content and expect it to grow. My content also blends affiliate text links in where appropriate. I guess a third option might be
(3) don't add a product page.
I would appreciate any thoughts or discussion around these topics.
Thanks.
Bill
