To earn the highest ROI, your ecommerce store needs lots of new traffic. Your dynamic new website will not generate income without a strong internet presence– no matter how aesthetically appealing the design is.

An ecommerce SEO (search engine optimization) strategy will attract new customers who are unaware of your store, converting them into loyal customers.

What is SEO? Increase Your Website’s Exposure

Most online experiences begin with a Google search. And the majority of these searchers never leave the first page of the Google search.

To stand a chance against competitors, your ecommerce store needs to rank on the first page of Google.

The mentality and process of these searchers is simple.

  1. After deciding to purchase a new wall poster, the first thing that a potential customer will do is conduct a Google search. They will probably enter a phrase like “Beatles poster Abbey Road” into the search bar.
  2. From here, the searcher will click on the first result.
  3. If it satisfies their expectations, the customer will probably purchase it.

Achieving positive ecommerce SEO results is a long process that requires dedicated attention and a unique strategy. LI Ecommerce can help.

Search Engine Optimization

Google Shopping Results: Demonstrate Your Product’s Value

Websites with a high SEO value have the potential to be featured at the top of the search engine results page (SERP). The SERP for tangible products will include both shopping results and reviews.

Reviews

Like service businesses, ecommerce stores with high rankings have the opportunity to appear at the top of a SERP. If your ecommerce store has positive SEO value, then your popular products could rank with high reviews.

For example, a coffee table supplier with great reviews could enjoy a featured review at the top of the SERP.

SEO Vs. Paid Advertising

What’s the point of SEO if your website can land more clicks with paid advertising methods?

Searchers have learned that paid advertisements do not necessarily lead to relevant results.

Paid advertising is a great way for websites to earn more traffic with minimal effort. But in the grand scheme of Google’s search algorithm, paid advertising will not provide any sustained results. Paid advertisements tend to be quite generic, and often do not answer the specific question that the searcher is asking.

It’s common for people to ignore these paid advertisements altogether. Instead, most searchers will instead view the first organic search result. They will view these results with more credibility

Links

When other websites send visitors to your website with a backlink, Google recognizes the value in your website. We can help your ecommerce store to gain an established internet presence with valuable links on relevant, industry-related websites.

Keywords

Customers searching for your products do so with specific phrases, or keywords. At Long Island Ecommerce, we can help you to identify these keywords, and implement them across your website for maximum ecommerce SEO.

Site Structure

An organized site structure is part and parcel of Google’s expansive search algorithm. Arranging the structure of your website in a way that makes sense to users will go a long way in attracting more traffic.

Product Categories

Customers should be able to find desired products right away. Properly organizing products into specific categories, and writing descriptions for these categories, goes a long way in directing customers to your website with ecommerce SEO.

Quality Content

Writing blog posts is the easiest way to attract more traffic to your website. We can easily write keyword-focused content to drive new traffic.

Product Descriptions

Before purchasing a product, customers will want to read about and understand the product. Writing detailed and informative product descriptions will attract more traffic via Google through SEO for your ecommerce store.

Image Recognition

To provide a visual element for customers, each of your products should have a picture associated with it. We can optimize these pictures for SEO with alt tags, which instruct Google about the topic of these pictures.
