Shopify is one of the most popular eCommerce platforms in 2021. It's overtaken most other platforms because of its ease of use and some good marketing, but Shopify can create some SEO issues for your store.

Issues such as duplicate content and slower loading websites. To counteract some of those issues that Shopify produces, its important to take advice from an agency who has successfully marketed Shopify websites.

As a successful agency, we recommend the following SEO tasks to increase your Google ranking chances:

1. Get the on-site basics right. This means your page titles, your heading tags, and your URLs.
   
   
2. Ensure you have unique product descriptions and not descriptions just copied from the wholesaler or manufacturer.
   
   
3. Remove the internal duplicate URLs that Shopify produces on your category & product pages.
   
   
4. Ensure you use canonical and a no-index tags where appropriate.
   
   
5. Increase the amount of text on your category and product pages. Google loves text!
   
   
6. Add a blog to your site, which allows you to target long tail keywords and informational content. Update it regularly.
   
   
7. Reduce your image sizes for quicker loading. Ensure product images are kept at a small file size.
   
   
8. Create and update your main social platforms, especially Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
   
   
9. Link to your important products and category pages from your home page. Google treats links from your homepage as the important links.
