Search engine optimization (SEO) is the structuring of a website through on-page optimization and off-page optimization techniques in order to gain organic ranking for specific keywords on popular search engines for two clear goals: traffic and conversion. Ensuring the visibility of your website through search engines benefits traffic, conversions, branding and presence – which all impact revenue. Search engines promote authority pages to the top of their organic ranking, so through quality search engine optimization techniques, we’re striving to increase the authority of your website with search engines themselves.

Realistically, there are over 200 ranking factors utilized by Google. As part of our partnership and Jason Shaffer Group’s commitment to excellence, we will assess and prioritize these ranking factors on a monthly basis to improve the ranking of your website for specific keywords and a growing keyword strategy. As search engines continue to make SEO more sophisticated through algorithm changes and the implementation of Search AI (RankBrain) and Natural Language (BERT), the need for high-quality on-page optimization and off-page optimization becomes more important. Our search engine optimization strategies are designed to address the critical elements needed to achieve success in search.

Get more traffic, increase conversions.

Being successful at eCommerce SEO can be a challenge, because companies like Amazon maintain 35% (+/-) of online sales. Most large retailers saw the value of organic search early on, shifting their marketing strategies to improve their SEO – putting them years ahead. That doesn’t feel great, does it? While it’s the reality, there’s definitely sun shining through. Though large brands are investing in eCommerce SEO, most of your potential competitors are still under-invested and pouring money into pay-per-click and paid media, providing you plenty of opportunity.

An eCommerce SEO campaign requires a hefty amount of keyword research to identify traffic-driving and buying-intent keywords. Being aware of your keyword strategy and content development is important, as you want to avoid keyword cannibalization and thin content entirely. Keyword cannibalization is one of the biggest issues in regards to eCommerce SEO. It’s quite common to see a lot of eCommerce stores duplicate product pages, product pictures and pricing with no regards to on-site structure or content. With a commitment to unique content for every category and product page, as well as utilizing a few advanced SEO techniques, you can completely avoid cannibalization and thin content issues while being rewarded with increased organic ranking.

Prioritizing categories and product pages is essential as well. Often, the broad term for a product group is searched more than a specific product, making a category page an important landing page. Developing a category landing page requires optimized on-site architecture, optimized URLs, quality content, and strategic internal link structuring. Leveraging schema, catchy meta-data, and a strong backlink profile, you’re going to see increased rankings for products and categories, as well as better click-through and conversion rates.

What are the benefits of eCommerce SEO?

• High converting organic traffic
• Cost-effective alternative to traditional marketing
• Re-marketing capability through social media and email
• Optimizied products and product display
• Improved site speed and user experience
• Brand credibility and visibility over your competitors
• Lower paid-search costs

Build authority with search engines.

Link building is the process of getting other websites to link back to yours, which in turn drives referral traffic and increases a site’s authority. It’s also one of the most important ranking factors in how search algorithms determine which sites rank in search results. Building links is an on-going, time-consuming process that is a tactic used in SEO because links are a strong signal to search engines that your site is a quality resource worthy of ranking for your target keywords. Because of the importance of link building, we’re dedicated to building links for our clients through content outreach, citation building, and hyper-local directories.

It’s essential to understand it can take a while to create an active backlink profile, and that not all links are created equal. Often times the most expensive part of any SEO campaign is the link building process, as the process involves content, public relations, and negotiations, not to mention appropriate content placements (i.e., seasonal).

Internal linking is also an important part of the process. Since we can’t typically control how an external site links to yours, interlinking your pages with rich anchor text can play a significant role in ranking and authority distribution to other pages on your website. As part of our commitment to your search optimization, we monitor ranking performance daily and make quality adjustments when needed.

What are the benefits of Link Building?

• Increased domain and page authority
• Referral traffic from relevant sources
• Increased brand visibility
• Increased brand authority
• Better conversion rates

Identify keywords your target customers use.

Search Engine Optimization requires a long-term relationship with search engines that needs to be nurtured on a routine basis. It’s reported that Google modifies it’s search algorithms roughly 500 times per year. While most algorithm changes are minor, having an outdated search optimization strategy will negatively impact search rankings.

Starting with the most crucial step, keyword research. Keyword research is the practice of researching popular product and service-specific terms and phrases that users are searching for on Google (and other search engines) based on search volume. With most businesses operating in a geographic footprint, incorporating local keywords is just as essential and often the ideal strategy with supporting search volume.

We’ll work to identify the keywords relevant to your business, analyze the competitiveness of each keyword, consider the search volume each keyword is estimated to receive each month, and build a strategy dedicated to ranking for our keyword list. Analyzing keywords related to the way consumers find your product or services is essential to website architecture, including navigation, internal links, structure, and content – which all impact search rankings.

What are the benefits of keyword research?

• Find buying-intent keywords used in search
• Identify keywords with the most monthly search volume
• Identify similar keywords and keyphrases to work into your strategy
• Discover low competition opportunities
• Target the right audience
• Benefits paid search (Google AdWords)
