anchor tags

[harlequin]

hi, at the moment i think actinic generates its anchor tags for each product based on the product reference.

Is it possible to make the anchor tags the same as the product name for search engine optimisation purposes?

Product reference is unique while the product name can be duplicated. The main catalog search also uses the product reference for indexing. This is the reason why the anchor tag is based on the product reference.
As it is widely used both desktop and server side I do not think this can be changed easily.

can you make the anchor text based on the prod ref PLUS the product name (thereby staying unique), it just is another tag the engines read/respect, therefore another (small) area to make gains with SEO

i suppose we could simply add an extra <a>NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTNAME</a> to each product template..

will ask my engineer if thats ok....maybe save a whole lot of recoding....
