Online Store Optimisation Overview

Our retail SEO service helps UK businesses improve product and category visibility through structured audits and on-page optimisation. We strengthen technical foundations, site speed, and schema for long-term growth across WooCommerce and OpenCart stores.

What you get: A two-phase optimisation plan designed to increase visibility, crawl efficiency, and conversion rates. We optimise product, category, and faceted navigation pages for performance and ranking. For Shopping feed performance, see Google Shopping and Feed Optimisation. If platform limits exist, pair this with the Conversion Reality Check or Ghost Hunter Audit to identify deeper CMS issues.

Why Store SEO Matters

  • Rank for high-intent product and category searches
  • Capture AI and zero click search opportunities
  • Increase conversions through improved copy and structure
  • Enhance crawl depth and product discoverability through better architecture
  • Use structured data to secure rich results and feed readiness

We also validate product schema and metadata visibility across AI platforms, supported by our AI Visibility Booster.
