Shopify SEO Guide 

Create a logical site structure 

Making sure that your Shopify page is organised right is important to your store’s success. When a customer visits your online shop, they want to be able to find what they want easily. Check that your site structure is simple so that it would be easier for search engines to access your site and rank your products. Also, be sure that every page of your site is only 3 clicks away from your home page as much as possible. 

Use descriptive file names for your images 

Using descriptive names for your images will improve your search engine rankings and website traffic since user-friendly image filenames are more likely to be recommended by Google.

Use descriptive link text for internal links 

Replace generic phrases like “click here” or “learn more” with specific descriptions so users have a clear idea of the page that will load when following the link. Descriptive link texts also help search engines understand your content. 

Increase links from other websites to your store  

The more backlinks a page has the more organic traffic it gets from Google.  

Now that you know the basics of Shopify SEO, you can improve your site to rank higher in search rankings. If you need additional help with improving your site, contact us to get started.
