Generic SEO doesn't work for ecommerce. You need specialists who understand product page canonicalisation, faceted navigation crawl traps, category architecture, and schema markup for products — not just keyword research and link building.
eCommerce sites face unique SEO challenges that generic SEO agencies routinely mishandle: duplicate content from product variants, crawl budget waste from faceted navigation, cannibalisation between product and category pages, and thin content across thousands of product listings.
Our ecommerce SEO practice was built specifically for online stores — with deep expertise in Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, and BigCommerce SEO, combined with a track record of driving organic revenue growth for DTC brands.
eCommerce SEO deals with challenges unique to online stores: thousands of product pages with thin or duplicate content, faceted navigation creating crawl traps, product variant canonicalisation, category hierarchy URL architecture, schema markup for products and reviews, and crawl budget management at scale. These require specialist expertise that generalist SEO agencies often lack.
Faceted navigation (filters for size, colour, price etc.) can generate millions of duplicate URLs, wasting crawl budget and creating duplicate content. We implement a combination of robots.txt directives, rel=canonical tags, noindex meta tags, and JavaScript rendering controls — allowing users to filter freely while keeping search engines focused on indexable pages.
Yes. Shopify SEO is a core specialty. We handle Shopify-specific challenges including the /collections/ URL structure, canonical issues with product variants, the duplicate content from /products/ appearing under multiple collections, app performance impact on Core Web Vitals, and structured data implementation within Shopify's template system.
