Search can send your store customers every day, with nothing to pay per click. We build that visibility and hold it to targets agreed with you before we begin.
See where you rank and get your custom roadmap. No obligation.
Real ecommerce brands we have grown with SEO and AI Search, from Shopify stores to national retailers.
Online retail is all we work on, so we know where stores lose rankings and how to get them back. Our technical team covers every ecommerce platform going, from Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce, WordPress and Shopline through to entirely bespoke builds, and the work takes in keyword research, on-page optimisation, technical repairs, Google Merchant Center, content, link building and visibility in AI search. Where the platform has become the limit, we move the store and protect what it already ranks for.
Visitors who are ready to buy, more baskets completed, more revenue by the end of the month. Have a look at our Shopify SEO services.
Hundreds of campaigns across every kind of online retailer sit behind the work, and the developers on the team have opened up stores of every description, bespoke builds with no documentation included. There is very little we have not already watched break.
The KPIs are settled before anything starts, and reported on monthly. Say Kia Ora and we will shape a plan around your store.

It compounds particularly well for retail, because the strongest buying intent on the web sits in product searches. Somebody typing an exact product name is much further along than somebody who clicked a banner.
Getting a store to rank needs the whole programme. Research to find where demand sits. Category and product pages written to meet it. Technical work so a large catalogue can be crawled and indexed. A sound Google Merchant Center feed so your products appear in Shopping. Content and links to build the standing that keeps those positions, and the depth that gets your store named when someone asks an AI assistant for a recommendation.
Most stores have some of this in place and the rest untouched, which is normally why progress has stopped. We cover all of it.
Each engagement takes the same path. We assess where the store stands and where the opportunity lies, settle the KPIs, then work through research, on-page optimisation, technical repairs, Merchant Center, content, link building and AI search. Every month you receive a report on what changed and what it was worth.

Still have questions, or unsure whether ecommerce SEO suits your store?
Ecommerce SEO covers the work needed to get an online store showing up in search results for the products it stocks. Done well it makes search a channel that delivers buyers continuously.
We judge it on orders and revenue.
An ecommerce SEO agency helps online retailers grow the sales arriving through organic search. It opens with a review of where the store currently sits, what rivals are taking, and what is limiting your pages.
The agency then builds and delivers a plan spanning keyword research, on-page optimisation, technical work, content and link building, and reports on what it produces.
Very, and retailers tend to gain more than most. Category and product pages catch shoppers who already know what they want, so that traffic converts better than almost anything you could buy. Improving those pages, and the structure underneath them, lifts rankings, visits and sales together.
Any of them, including the ones nobody else will touch. Shopify, Shopline, BigCommerce, WordPress, Squarespace and Magento (Adobe Commerce) all arrive with the basics, and the configuration built on top decides the outcome. Bespoke stores are where an experienced technical team matters most, since there is no plugin to lean on. Where a platform has become a genuine constraint, we handle the migration.
Our ecommerce SEO services are comprehensive, running from technical work and content through to Google Merchant Center and AI search, and scoped to your catalogue and your objectives.
These include:
Work may also take in competitor analysis, conversion rate optimisation, product feed management, and anything else the store requires.
Ask us about ecommerce SEO for your store and we will show you where the growth sits.
Pricing is clear, and the scope is agreed in writing before any work begins.
The figure depends on catalogue size, how contested your market is, and the technical state of the site. It runs from a few hundred pounds a month up to several thousand. You will have the scope and the monthly cost in front of you before committing.
SEO runs continuously. Technical repairs can surface within weeks. Content and authority work usually needs three to six months before it shifts contested terms.
Sticking with it is what makes it profitable. The stores that come out ahead are the ones still going in year two.
A growing share of product research now happens inside AI assistants, and each answer cites only a handful of sources. Being one of them is becoming a discipline in its own right.
It overlaps heavily with SEO without being the same thing. Assistants favour pages that answer a question fully, publish clean product data, and are backed up by mentions elsewhere. We build for that at the same time as the rankings.
There is more on our approach on the AI search page.
We take a complete approach to ecommerce SEO, improving every part of the store. Our services include:
For results you can put a number against, talk to our team about your store.
Keyword research underpins everything else, and across a large catalogue it has to be done at scale.
By working out which terms your customers genuinely use, you can:
Mapping that demand across your categories shows you which pages to build, which to merge, and which were never worth keeping.
We draw on a range of ecommerce SEO tactics to lift visibility, traffic and sales.
Here are some of the key Ecommerce SEO strategies we rely on:
Which ones your store needs falls out of the audit.
The underlying principles are shared. Scale is what differs: thousands of nearly identical product pages, filters that multiply URLs, variants, stock coming and going, and a product feed that has to stay aligned with the site. Ecommerce SEO is mostly about managing that volume without breaking anything.
At Kia Ora Digital we specialise in ecommerce SEO, and have built strategies for stores running on Shopify, Shopline, BigCommerce, WordPress, Squarespace and Magento.
Yes. We set the product feed up, keep it healthy, clear the disapprovals that quietly pull products out of Shopping, and make sure the feed agrees with what your product pages actually say.
Free listings place your products in front of people at the moment they are ready to buy, and a neglected feed is among the most common reasons a store is missing from that surface altogether.
Partnering with an expert Ecommerce SEO agency like ours brings all kinds of benefits to your business. Here are just a few you can expect:
