Ecommerce SEO

Exponentially increase your store’s organic performance with UX & CRO-focused SEO consultancy

What is Ecommerce SEO?

When it’s done right, an Ecommerce SEO strategy makes it easier for your ideal customers to discover your store to increase organic transactions and revenue.

As an Ecommerce SEO Consultant, I work with your team to unite separate marketing disciplines, including technical SEO, user experience, keyword research, CRO, content optimisation & link building. Tailoring our strategy for each area of your site will ensure your pages appear for searches at their respective point in the customer’s journey.

Increase your search engine rankings and grow your brand awareness and revenue

Why is Ecommerce SEO important?

Rank above competitors

There are many ways to grow your business, but your website is one of the few channels you own and control in its entirety. Strategic online store SEO will help you to consistently rank highly in search engine results against industry competitors.

Improve buyer trust

Audience and keyword research help you to build product-based pages that match user intent and reflect your products featured in the SERPs. Algorithm updates like the E-E-A-T, Page Experience, and from 2022, the Helpful Content Update emphasise creating user-friendly websites that improve buyer trust and confidence.

Be ahead of the game

Investing in Ecommerce SEO means you’re already ahead of all of these factors. And with time and investment, you’ll be amazed at how your visibility flourishes while protecting your market share from new competitors.

Why choose me?

In years of successful SEO, I’ve seen how websites, small and large differ from their tech stack to their customer journey to their market. Every business and website is unique, so I never take a “one size fits all” approach to Ecommerce SEO.

I take a personalised approach to each website, understanding its technical DNA and your audience to create a strategy no competitor can replicate.

FAQs

In Ecommerce, SEO focuses on optimising content to be delivered at the right phase of the shopper’s journey in parallel with maximising user experience & conversion opportunities. For larger stores, technical SEO is also of utmost importance to ensure crawlability & indexability of pages that are essential for ranking.

The audit will include insights, opportunities & recommendations which can be passed over to the different teams (technical & content) to start implementing changes based on impact. There will be other findings which will be more applicable to incorporate into a task roadmap.

I talk my clients through what I’ve found, help them fill skill gaps and liaise with internal & external parties to execute recommendations in a timely manner. 

The time it takes to improve your SEO depends on how quickly you can create and implement SEO changes and how competitive the current market is. If your primary keywords are saturated, and you have a limited monthly budget, it can take over a year to gain a competitive position. If you’re ready to invest in SEO fully, we can usually see quick win changes start to take affect at the 3 to 6 month mark.

There is “no one-size-fits-all” way to increase organic traffic. The only given is to focus on taking a strategic approach. Look at your internal capabilities, competitor content gaps, technical foundation, and business targets, then build an SEO roadmap to achieve your goals.

SEO Consulting is when an experienced SEO practitioner analyses your business and makes strategic and informed recommendations to achieve your search marketing goals. They often work with your in-house team or agency to guide the implementation of those recommendations.

A good SEO Consultant will:

  • Undergo regular industry training
  • Charge in the hundreds per day, not tens
  • Provide full visibility of what they are doing each month
  • Maintain regular contact with you and your team
  • Invest time in understanding their clients
  • Specialise in SEO but understand the full marketing mix

 

I always take time to learn about my clients before committing to working together and provide a transparent report of my daily or weekly work. I also regularly attend events like BrightonSEO, analyse the latest Google releases, undertake regular training and re-take annual certifications.
