For e-commerce, SEO is business-critical
The basis of all e-merchants is to be visible on Google both SEO and Google Ads. Google Ads costs money, so if you want to scale up the business with ads, you need to have a large budget while SEO does not cost anything but should be seen as a long-term investment.

Do you want to improve your current e-commerce and get it to search engine optimized and make the site visible online for both the brand and products?
Or do you want to start a brand new e-commerce site? If you have an online shop, you know how important it is to drive visitors to your online store and then it is important that you reach the right target group and that the site is optimized so that the various products are highly visible on Google.
Search engine optimisation for e-commerce is often about measuring and improving conversions on the keywords where you have good sales, low competition and high gross margins.
Google Ads without optimisation is like throwing a big chunk of the budget into the lake where you constantly have to spend large sums every month. Through effective SEO, you get the ads to work better as the landing pages become more effective.
Build a content structure that works
When you build a website, content structure is extremely important and that you build good category pages based on what customers are looking for.
Make sure you use cancellation, ie that you tell Google which page you want to rank on.
You can make your products appear free/organic on Google shopping and automatically add structured data to your pages. You also need to work with the user experience by offering related products.
Make sure you have solid SEO processes
In the first level, SEO companies usually make sure that the structure is right. It is often about building good category pages is good but to get to the top you need to work structured with several other parts.

According to Goldman & Sachs, which has looked at the target group in the US, they will increase their consumption by 15% over the next 5 years while the age group before them – ie baby boomers – will reduce their consumption by 10%.

In addition to using the internet more for their own price comparisons, millennials are 3 times more likely to talk about a product on social media than baby boomers and 10 times more likely to blog about it.
