Ecommerce SEO services
Ecommerce SEO is the strategy behind how an online store, from a new shop to a catalogue of thousands of pages, gets found in search. It covers site architecture, category and product page templates, faceted navigation, structured data and product feeds. The goal is more qualified organic visitors and orders, on any platform. We tailor everything to your catalogue.

What's included
8 DeliverablesCategory and product architecture
We map how categories, subcategories and products connect, based on how people search, so important categories sit close to the homepage and no product is buried or orphaned. Structure comes first.
Faceted navigation control
Filters for size, colour or brand can create endless URLs. We decide which combinations earn their own indexable pages and which get canonical tags, noindex or robots rules to protect crawl budget.
Category and product templates
We design templates for titles, headings, descriptions, internal links and specification blocks, so thousands of pages gain unique, useful content without hand-writing every one from scratch. Templates also save your team time later on.
Structured data and merchant feeds
We implement product, offer, breadcrumb and review schema, and align it with your product feed so price, stock and identifiers agree across your site, search results and shopping listings. Consistency builds trust.
Out-of-stock and discontinued products
We set rules for sold-out items, seasonal lines and removed products: keep, redirect to a close match, or show alternatives, so authority is kept and shoppers do not hit dead ends.
Technical health and speed
We audit crawling, indexing, internal duplicates, pagination, mobile speed and checkout friction at scale, with fixes written so your developers can act on them. Each ticket includes examples, expected outcomes and a way to check the work once it ships.
Launch checklist for new stores
For new or small shops, we first confirm the store is indexable, has a sitemap, uses HTTPS, loads reasonably on mobile and tracks sales, so early traffic is not wasted on a store with basic faults.
Original product descriptions
We write or coach on original descriptions covering who a product is for, sizes, materials, care, delivery and returns, instead of reusing supplier text that other sellers already publish. Best sellers come first.
How it works
4 StepsStep 1: Store audit
We crawl the whole catalogue, review analytics and search data, and benchmark your categories against competitors. We also note which sections of the catalogue already earn organic visits.
Step 2: Architecture plan
We prepare a keyword-to-page map, facet rules and template specifications, ranked by the revenue each part of the catalogue can influence.
Step 3: Roll out in phases
We ship changes in controlled batches, starting with top categories, and test each release before applying it to the full catalogue.
Step 4: Measure revenue
We report organic sessions, landing pages and ecommerce conversions, and use the findings to choose what to expand next. Wins are repeated.
Frequently asked questions
7 QuestionsWhich ecommerce platforms do you work with?
We work with Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce and custom builds. The principles are the same everywhere, but each platform has limits on URLs, templates and plugins, so we adapt recommendations to what your system can actually do. Platform limits shape the plan.
Should I optimize categories or products first?
Usually categories. They match broader searches, collect internal links and lead to many products. Product pages matter too, especially for specific or branded searches, so we start with top categories, then work through best sellers. Variants, accessories and long-tail searches come after the main categories are in good shape.
How do you handle faceted navigation?
We review which filters match real searches and which only create duplicate or empty pages. Valuable combinations get clean URLs and unique content. The rest are controlled with canonicals, noindex or crawl rules, depending on your platform. Platform limits matter here.
Do product feeds affect organic SEO?
Feeds mainly power shopping listings, but they must match what is on your site. Mismatched price or stock data can get products disapproved. Keeping site markup and feeds in sync also helps Google trust your product information. Clean data also lowers rejection risk.
How long until an ecommerce site sees results?
It varies with competition, site health and catalogue size. Technical fixes can show in weeks, while new content and authority usually take months. We cannot guarantee timing, but we report progress against agreed measures along the way. Honest expectations help planning.
Is SEO worth it for a new or small store?
Often, yes, because organic traffic does not need ad spend for every visit. It builds slowly, though, so it works best alongside other ways of finding first customers, and specific long-tail searches with clear buying intent tend to convert earlier than broad ones.
Do I need a blog for my online store?
Not at the start. Get categories and products right first. A blog helps later by capturing research-stage searches, such as how to choose or compare products, and by giving you pages that can link to your range.
