eCommerce SEO should be your most efficient source of website traffic and conversions, the key is to continue to build assets by way of blogs, collection pages and product descriptions that are both user friendly, written for people and blended into your eCommerce SEO strategy.
In an ‘ideal’ world SEO traffic should account for at least 30% of your online revenue, working with an eCommerce SEO agency will ensure you have the best plan in play to achieve this.
Why Is eCommerce SEO Important For Businesses?
Ecommerce SEO is incredibly important for businesses because it helps them stand out in the online marketplace and attract more customers.
First and foremost, ecommerce SEO ensures that your website appears on search engine results pages when potential customers are looking for products or services that you offer.
By optimising your website’s content, keywords, and meta tags, you increase the chances of your website ranking higher in search results.
This means more people will see your website and be more likely to click on it, leading to increased website traffic. But it doesn’t stop there!
Ecommerce SEO also helps improve the overall user experience on your website. When you optimise your website’s structure, navigation, and load times, it becomes easier for visitors to find what they’re looking for and make a purchase.
This lead’s to higher conversion rates and more sales for your business. Another benefit of ecommerce SEO is that it helps you build credibility and trust with your target audience.
When your website ranks high in search results, people tend to perceive your business as more trustworthy and reliable.
This can give you a competitive edge over your competitors and encourage potential customers to choose your products or services.
Furthermore, ecommerce SEO is a cost-effective marketing strategy.
Unlike paid advertising, where you have to continuously invest money to maintain visibility, SEO provides long-term benefits.
Once you’ve optimised your website and achieved a good ranking, you can continue to reap the rewards without spending additional money.
In summary, ecommerce SEO is crucial for businesses because it increases online visibility, drives organic traffic, improves user experience, builds credibility, and offers long-term benefits.
How can I improve my website's SEO?
The best way to improve the SEO of your website is by working with a digital marketing agency.
This process uncovers what customers are searching for, then using this data to optimises your website to rapidly improve user experience, increase conversions, and minimise bounce rates.
Businesses that work with a digital marketing agency like Remarkable Digital can better position themselves within their eCommerce niche to win.
Common things to look for are best product descriptions, category pages setup, website URL structure, product reviews and blogs that have great SEO copy.
Should every eCommerce business do SEO?
Absolutely! Every eCommerce business should definitely consider doing SEO.
The main factor to consider is that SEO is not a quick fix and takes time, so we always recommend a more immediate campaign like Google Ads which ensures you’re on page 1 from Day 1 and generating sales, so SEO has the time required to get to the Top 3 positions, which is when you see the efficiency and best return on your SEO time/money spent.
