Shopify SEO services, run by someone who can also edit your theme
Most Shopify SEO stalls at the theme layer. An SEO points out a duplicate-URL problem and someone else has to fix it. I find the problem and I fix it in your theme code too, every month.
Signs you need Shopify seo services
What you get
From $500/mo. Scoped on a call, fixed in writing before work starts.
01Technical SEO, fixed in code
Canonicals, duplicate /collections/*/products/* paths, tag pages, faceted filters, robots.txt.liquid, sitemaps, pagination. I fix these in the theme myself.
02Collection page optimization
Collections are where most commercial keywords land. Each one gets intro and FAQ copy, internal links and a title that matches what people search.
03Product page SEO
Unique descriptions for your top sellers, image alt text, Product and Offer schema with reviews, and handles that don’t compete with each other.
04Content that earns rankings
Buying guides, comparisons and how-to articles mapped to real keywords. Each one links back to the collection it supports.
05Authority building
Outreach to relevant sites, digital PR and partner placements. No PBNs and no link farms.
06AI search visibility
Pages structured so ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can understand and cite them.

Why Shopify SEO needs its own playbook
Shopify is a good platform for SEO, but it has its own quirks. One product can live at /products/x and also at /collections/y/products/x. Tag filters create thin pages by the thousand. You can’t edit robots.txt the usual way. Apps add scripts that slow every template. A generic “website SEO” checklist misses all of this.
I’ve worked on Shopify stores since 2019. I write Liquid, so when the fix is in the theme, the fix is done. You don’t get a recommendation that sits in a ticket queue.
How a typical month runs
- Fix: one technical sprint. We work through crawl, index and speed issues, starting with whatever has the biggest impact.
- Optimize: 4–8 collection or product pages reworked for search intent.
- Publish: 2–4 pieces of supporting content, each linked to a money page.
- Build: authority placements that fit your niche.
- Report: clicks, impressions, positions and revenue from organic search. You see what moved and what’s planned for next month.
Built for recovery, not shortcuts
A lot of stores I take on were hit by an algorithm update. The fix is almost never another trick. It’s fewer, better pages: merging thin collections, removing auto-generated pages, and showing real expertise. Google is rewarding exactly that right now, and it’s how every engagement here is run.

How long does Shopify SEO take to show results?
Technical fixes on an established store often show up in Search Console within 4–8 weeks. New collection content and links usually take 3–6 months to reach their full effect. A brand-new domain takes longer. On the discovery call I’ll give you a realistic range for your niche.
Do I need SEO apps on Shopify?
Usually not many. Most SEO-app features (schema, meta tags, redirects) are better handled in the theme or with Shopify’s built-in tools. Fewer apps also means a faster store. I’ll tell you which apps to keep and which to remove.
Is Shopify bad for SEO?
No. Shopify handles hosting, SSL, sitemaps and a lot of speed work very well. Its weak spots are duplicate URL paths, limited URL structure and app bloat. All of these are manageable when someone who knows the platform handles them.
Do you work with stores outside the US?
Yes. I work with merchants worldwide, including the UK, EU, Middle East, Australia and Pakistan. For stores selling into several countries, see the international Shopify SEO service.
What do you need from me to start?
Collaborator access to Shopify, Search Console and GA4 access, and a 30-minute call about your margins, best sellers and target customers. I handle the rest.
