Many search engines don’t like it if web-pages are generated dynamically from a database for every visitor. They prefer to read pre-generated pages. Unlike many other e-Commerce solutions, ShopFactory knows this. So of course ShopFactory creates static pages, which can easily be found and read by Search engines. The added benefit: Your website responds faster to your customers and can deal with more visitors than equivalent database driven systems.
Search engines give a lot of weight to the document title field of a website pages. These fields are created in the HTML code of a page and usually appear as the title of the search result in a search engine.

Search engines value text differently, based on how it is displayed on your pages. To do this search engines look for example if a text is contained in a Headline, if it is bold or if it is just normal text. ShopFactory automatically adds headlines around important text such as Product titles and page titles, to help boost the relevance rating of these terms.
Of course even the best shopping cart software can't do everything for you. You still have to add your own text to your websites to achieve top results in search engines.
