Your Best Products Are Invisible.
The Reasons Are Almost Always Technical.
You have great products. You have decent reviews. You spend on ads. So why is organic traffic flat or dropping? Because e-commerce SEO problems compound silently. A product variant URL that splits ranking signals across 12 colors. A category page Google sees as duplicate of three others. Schema markup that broke when your theme updated last month, killing rich snippets that used to drive 18% of clicks. Out-of-stock products still ranking and sending users to dead pages. Faceted navigation eating your crawl budget while your bestsellers wait to be reindexed. AI search engines skipping your store because product schema is incomplete. Every issue costs revenue, and most owners do not see them until the audit surfaces them.
Crawlability and indexation across product and category templates, Core Web Vitals on PDPs and PLPs, mobile commerce experience, page speed across SKU variants, hreflang for international stores, sitemap structure for large catalogs, robots.txt sanity check, faceted navigation crawl budget impact, JavaScript rendering for headless commerce setups (Shopify Hydrogen, Next.js Commerce, Magento PWA Studio).
For stores with physical locations: Google Business Profile completeness, store locator schema, NAP consistency across citations, local pack ranking by neighborhood, "near me" query coverage, local inventory ads readiness, location landing page quality. Critical if you run brick-and-mortar alongside your online store, or use buy-online-pickup-in-store flows.
Where your products and brand appear (or do not) in ChatGPT shopping queries, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews. Product entity recognition, schema readiness for AI crawlers, brand citation patterns, comparison query coverage ("best X under $Y"). AI is already mediating purchase decisions - we map where you stand in AI-driven discovery.
Product page optimization at scale: title tags, meta descriptions, header structure, keyword targeting, search intent matching across PDPs and PLPs. Product schema validation (Product, Offer, AggregateRating, Review), variant URL handling, out-of-stock product strategy, image SEO and alt text, canonical handling for similar products, internal linking from collections to products, thin content and cannibalization across SKU groups.
Domain authority for your store and key product categories, referring domains quality, toxic and spammy links, anchor text distribution, lost backlinks from product discontinuations, competitor link gaps in your vertical, link opportunities from review sites, gift guides, editorial features, and influencer mentions. Disavow recommendations where needed.
Keywords your top three direct competitors rank for and you do not, segmented by category and product type. Content formats winning commercial SERPs (buying guides, comparison pages, "best of" lists). Marketplace presence and visibility (Amazon, Etsy, Walmart) where relevant. Featured snippet and rich result opportunities. The product and category opportunities you are leaving on the table.
GA4 e-commerce tracking setup, enhanced ecommerce events, Google Merchant Center integration, GSC product performance reports, Shopping Ads conversion tracking, attribution model sanity check, tag manager hygiene. If your tracking miscounts purchases, every SEO and ads decision after it is wrong too - we make sure your data foundation is solid before optimization starts.
