SEO Priorities for Ecommerce Sites

[wickerparadise]

Hello All!

What is the best way to rank SEO tasks by PRIORITY for Ecommerce sites to improve??

It can be quite overwhelming with all the types of projects/tasks needed to improve organic rankings...

How would you rank the most CRITICAL tasks to spend the MOST TIME on to the tasks you spend less on.

Appreciate your input in advance

Thank you!

First and foremost on page and on site optimization. Fix any issues with duplication (especially an issue with commerce site that may be multiple pages with products under different urls/categories) and optimization the product pages so they are properly and specifically targeting the primary keywords. ie. if you are selling Nike basketball shoes model XYZ, you want that reflected throughout the product page! Use the Moz on page grader to fine tune.

That can be an extensive process, but I would do that first and then start link acquisition outreach and content asset generation!

Just out of curiosity, I checked out your website also. You may want to consider toning down the keyword placement on the homepage! If you run the homepage in the Moz grader for "wicker furniture" you will see that it suggests that you may have overdone the keyword mentions. This may adversely impact your search rankings and I noticed you have much better stats in terms of link authority than the pages ranking on the bottom of page 1 for the term. May help!
