ECOMMERCE SEO CONSULTANT

This is for you if:

  • ✓Your product and category pages read like they were built by someone who's never actually touched Shopify, or there's a technical issue stopping them from ranking at all
  • ✓You're expanding into a new marketplace or wholesale channel and need SEO that understands multichannel selling, beyond a single storefront
  • ✓Your site treats a SKU-level product page and a collection page the same way, and it shows
  • ✓You need a consultant who already knows the difference between DTC and B2B wholesale ecommerce, so you're not explaining the basics first

Ecommerce SEO is a narrower specialism than general SEO advice assumes. Category and collection pages, faceted navigation, duplicate content across thousands of near-identical variants, and a buyer who’s often close to purchasing already, all make it a genuinely different discipline.

That changes what actually works:

Category pages carry more weight than most stores give them. A shopper searching a category term wants a product grid, not 2,000 words of copy. Getting that balance right, enough content to rank, without burying the products, is one of the highest-leverage fixes most stores never get to.

Variants and filters create problems most stores never audit for. Colour, size, and sort parameters can quietly generate thousands of near-duplicate URLs, splitting the ranking signal a single product should be accumulating. Fixing it is usually a bigger win than most content changes.

Running the channel changes what you notice. I direct DTC marketing across Shopify and marketplace channels for brands including B&Q, Tesco, and Mountain Warehouse, and managed a 1,000+ SKU catalogue and an ERP integration at the UK’s largest hydroponics wholesaler. The SEO comes from actually running the channel, not from researching it from the outside.

MoverX is a DTC camping and outdoor gear brand I’ve run channel strategy for. The result, £102K to £200K in monthly DTC revenue inside 10 weeks, came from understanding how the store, the catalogue, and the ad spend actually connect.

Product & category content

FAQ

Questions people ask before we start

What does an ecommerce SEO consultant actually do?

The same disciplines a full-service agency sells, technical SEO, on-page optimisation, and content, delivered by one person instead of a team. I scope the work, I do the work, and I’m the one you talk to if something’s not working.

How is ecommerce SEO different from general SEO?

Category and collection pages, faceted navigation, and duplicate content across near-identical product variants all make it a genuinely different discipline. The buyer is also often close to a purchase decision already, so intent and conversion matter as much as raw traffic.

Do you work as an ecommerce SEO agency or as an independent consultant?

Independent. No account managers, no layers between you and the work, one point of contact from the first audit through to implementation. See agency vs. freelancer for the fuller comparison.

What's included in ecommerce SEO services?

Technical SEO, on-page optimisation, and content production are all things I do myself. Link building is the one piece I coordinate through a trusted partner when it’s part of the scope.

How much does ecommerce SEO cost?

See current pricing for exact numbers, starting from an SEO audit at £595, scaling up to an ongoing retainer.

Do you work with Shopify specifically, or other platforms too?

Both. See Shopify SEO consultant or WordPress/WooCommerce SEO consultant if you want the platform-specific breakdown, this page covers the discipline across any platform.
