Why stores need specialised SEO
Online stores face problems most websites never encounter: manufacturer descriptions duplicated across hundreds of sites, filter combinations that generate endless URLs, seasonal products, and thin category pages that do not match how people search.
Platform constraints
Shopify and WooCommerce each have their own SEO constraints — from Shopify’s fixed URL structure to WooCommerce plugin bloat. See also Shopify development and WooCommerce development.
Approach
- Crawl the store and identify indexation, duplication and crawl-waste issues.
- Map commercial keywords to categories, subcategories and key products.
- Improve templates so every product and category page has strong foundations.
- Prioritise copy and content improvements by revenue potential.
- Track organic revenue, not just traffic.
