Default Adding Content on bottom of Category pages

We need to add text / copy to the bottom of the category page, below the actually category images/links.

Example page:
https://www.naturalbathbody.com/natural-sea-sponges

this is important for SEO purposes and the amount of content is too much to be above the category links.

is there any easy way to do this? I am no expert in Flexy, nor do I want to spend the time to become one. Is there a module? Or maybe using Webmaster mode?

please help,

thanks in advance,

Default Re: Adding Content on bottom of Category pages

The easiest (and proper) way to do this would be to write custom module to expend category - duplicate description field and show the new one at the bottom of the category.
This in case you want to have 2 descriptions. If you just want to move the existing one from top to bottom it may be as easy as modifying the appropriate template via webmaster mode. Can't tell for sure without seeing the existing code.

Any chance CFL systems would consider building such a module.

This is somewhat inside information and I probably should not be posting this here, but one of the SEO companies that does constant black-box testing of Google's search algorithm has determined that a web-page with 1,300 words on page will outperform the exact same pages indexed in the SERPS with either more or less words.

unfortunately 1,300 words it almost a novel and putting that much copy on top of the category images would kills sales as customers simply would not see the category images so far below it.
