So, we got a new SEO project for a big health supplements e-commerce site based in Canada and the USA.

In our initial SEO audit, we identified a keyword category with good search volume. Here, the website’s product pages were ranking for the keyword with the maximum search volume.

2 situations or options

  1. One of the other product pages was ranking for the main keyword. Never on the same page.
  2. And, the product on that product page got out of stock

We did a simple thing that was missed.

We created a category page for this product and added all products of this category to this page of the website.

We optimised the new category page (built keyword-rich meta tags, heading tags, linked the page from the main menu, created static content on the footer, took internal links, and also acquired a few external links)

The new category page started ranking on the first page of Google in less than 4 weeks, and the impressions grew by more than 15 times, and the clicks increased by almost 3 times.

This SEO win helped us build confidence with the client, and we built several such pages that helped in increasing the traffic by a good 2 times in the span of 5-6 months.

Considering the scale of the website, such an increase in clicks was a huge help in improving the revenue.

Conclusion

Identifying the right keywords, building the right type of page, and optimising has helped the Ecommerce SEO efforts. Our approach to e-commerce SEO has always been to break down keywords, build and optimise pages that provide a clear, keyword-rich theme for Google, and offer a good user experience.
