E-commerce SEO

Discovery only counts when it reaches the checkout.

Category and product architecture, faceted navigation control, and schema at catalogue scale, connected to clean purchase events so you can see what actually moves revenue.

  • Faceted navigation that does not spawn indexable duplicates
  • Product and category schema validated for rich results
  • Purchase event integrity, so feeds and ads agree

The pattern we keep finding

Why stores bleed organic revenue

Catalogue sites fail in ways brochure sites do not. These three account for most of it.

01
Architecture

Category hierarchy that fights discovery

Product listing pages buried, thin or duplicated across near-identical filter combinations. Crawl budget drains into permutations while the collections that sell wait to be recrawled.

02
Speed

Vitals failing on the templates that sell

Product and listing templates carry the most traffic and the most third-party script. Slow LCP costs conversion before it costs ranking, so it hides in the revenue line rather than the SEO report.

03
Signals

Feeds and events that disagree

Purchase events firing twice, feeds out of sync with the catalogue, ad platforms reporting numbers the backend does not recognise. Every optimisation after that is built on sand.

Purchase event and feed integrity
Our insight

Product discovery is architecture multiplied by speed

A perfectly optimised product page inside a broken category structure will not be found, and a well-structured store that loads slowly will be found and abandoned. The two constrain each other.

We fix the structure so the right pages are discoverable, then make the templates fast enough that discovery converts, and verify both against real purchase data rather than rankings.

Every engagement produces

  • A category and facet architecture with explicit indexation rules
  • Product and category schema validated for rich results
  • Core Web Vitals work at template level, not page by page
  • Purchase event and product feed reconciliation
  • A prioritised roadmap tied to revenue, not traffic
How we work

From diagnosis to something you can operate

1

Audit

Crawl the catalogue, map indexation waste and find where revenue pages sit.

2

Restructure

Rebuild category hierarchy and facet rules so discovery follows demand.

3

Enrich

Ship product and category schema, and strengthen thin listing content.

4

Accelerate

Fix vitals on product and listing templates where the traffic actually is.

5

Reconcile

Verify purchase events and feeds so reporting matches the backend.

Common questions

Answered directly

Each answer opens with the answer, which is what a busy reader and an answer engine both take.

Should faceted navigation be indexable?
A small, deliberate subset should be, and everything else should not. Facets matching real search demand, such as a colour or size people actually query, earn a landing page. Every other combination should be blocked or canonicalised, because the permutations grow faster than crawl budget ever will.
How do we stop duplicate content across product variants?
Canonical the variants to a single product where they differ only by attribute, and give a variant its own page only when it has independent demand. The failure mode is a template that generates a URL per combination and canonicals none of them, which is common and quietly expensive.
Does Core Web Vitals really affect e-commerce revenue?
It affects revenue before it affects rankings, which is why it gets missed. On listing and product templates the effect shows in abandonment first. In one apparel engagement, listing LCP came down to 2.6 seconds as part of work that lifted organic revenue 64%, though architecture changes contributed alongside it.
How long does store SEO take on a large catalogue?
Template-level fixes propagate quickly because one change affects thousands of URLs, so indexation improvements often appear within six weeks. Content depth and authority on category pages take two to three quarters. Catalogue size affects implementation effort more than time to first result.
Can you work with Shopify, WooCommerce or a custom platform?
Yes, though what is possible differs. Shopify constrains URL structure and some server-side control, so the approach leans harder on internal linking and content. Custom and WooCommerce builds allow deeper architectural change. We tell you which constraints apply to your platform before scoping.
