Ecommerce SEO: Automate your way to the top

Why eCommerce SEO Is More Important Than Ever in 2024

In the eCommerce space, the value of SEO is impossible to ignore. Roughly 35% of all global eCommerce traffic comes from organic search. While this figure may shift across different regions and industries, one thing remains true: organic search is still a powerful force for driving high-quality traffic to online stores. It’s particularly valuable because it brings in customers who are actively searching for the products or services a business provides. These shoppers, who are keen to buy, highlight just how crucial organic search is for attracting and converting high-intent leads.

Research from Semrush also stresses the importance of matching SEO strategies with user intent. Focusing on long-tail keywords—specific search terms with less competition—allows businesses to tap into a pool of users with a higher likelihood of making a purchase. By tailoring landing pages to match these detailed queries, businesses not only increase relevance but also improve their chances of converting visitors into paying customers.

When it comes to return on investment (ROI), eCommerce SEO delivers significant benefits. A study from First Page Sage suggests that eCommerce SEO can drive over 300% ROI in net profit. Numerous SEO experts and market reports point out that SEO is far more cost-effective and offers long-lasting value compared to paid search advertising.

Ultimately, the combination of search demand, user intent, and impressive ROI underscores why eCommerce SEO remains a cornerstone for success in 2024. With its ability to attract targeted traffic, its cost-efficiency, and long-term potential, investing in strong SEO practices is essential for any eCommerce business looking to thrive in today’s highly competitive digital marketplace.

Understanding eCommerce SEO: The Key to Growth

eCommerce SEO isn't just about optimising pages for general keywords—it digs into the vast potential of long-tail searches, focusing on user intent with precision by creating highly relevant landing pages. This strategic approach helps brands attract valuable organic traffic and convert more visitors into customers.

Here are the key principles:

  • Laying a strong foundation with technical SEO.
  • Finding relevant keywords that have decent search volume and low competition.
  • Optimising product pages, category pages, and content around those keywords.
  • Developing high-quality, informative content that speaks to your audience.
  • Building strong backlinks from trustworthy sites.

With the challenges of manually optimising large websites, more businesses are turning to programmatic SEO. This method automates optimisation tasks, saving both time and resources while delivering greater results.
