# Ecommerce SEO

> Ecommerce SEO grows organic sales for online stores. We structure categories around how people shop, write product pages with specs and answers, control faceted navigation so it does not waste crawl budget, add Product and Offer markup, and prepare product data for shopping features in Google and AI assistants.

Tru Measure, one of our ecommerce clients, sells laser measurement targets to buyers who search by specification. Details win those searches.

## Why it matters now
AI assistants and Google shopping results compare products using structured facts: price, availability, dimensions and reviews. Stores that publish those facts clearly get compared, and stores that do not get skipped.

## What is included
- Category structure and keyword mapping
- Product page templates with specs, FAQs and reviews
- Faceted navigation and duplicate URL control
- Product, Offer and Review structured data
- Merchant Center feed alignment
- Internal linking between categories, products and guides

## How we do it
1. **Audit.** Review categories, products, facets and feeds.
2. **Structure.** Fix category hierarchy and URL rules.
3. **Enrich.** Improve product content and structured data.
4. **Grow.** Add buying guides and comparisons that link to products.

## Deliverables
- Ecommerce SEO audit
- Category plan
- Product template updates

## Who it is for
- Stores on Wix, Shopify or headless platforms
- B2B catalogs sold online
- Brands relying on paid ads for most sales

## Frequently asked questions
### Do product descriptions from the manufacturer hurt SEO?

Copied descriptions give search engines no reason to prefer your page. Adding your own specs, use cases and answers is one of the most effective ecommerce fixes.

### How do AI assistants choose products?

They draw on product data, reviews, retailer pages and comparisons. Clear structured facts and genuine reviews increase the chance your products are included.
