# Shopify SEO services built around your collection pages Source: https://www.smartecomseo.com/shopify-seo-services/ Updated: 2026-09-29 Technical fixes, money pages, buying guides, schema and internal links, shipped every month by a team that has only ever worked on Shopify. ## Pick the problem you have today Most clients start with an audit and a collection page plan, then add the rest as the store grows. ## Why a Shopify SEO company should only do Shopify Shopify decides a lot of your SEO for you. It fixes your URL prefixes to `/products/` and `/collections/`, generates your sitemap, writes canonical tags, and adds hreflang when you set up Markets. A generalist agency spends the first two months learning which of those it can change. We already know. That frees the budget for the work that moves revenue: - **Collection pages for every buyer keyword.** One product can rank for thousands of searches. We build a dedicated, optimized collection page for each search that deserves one. - **Content that matches page one.** We read the results before we write. If Google ranks buying guides for a query, you get a buying guide. If it ranks collection pages, you get a collection page. - **Technical work that Shopify allows.** Theme-level fixes to internal links, schema, pagination and tag pages, plus `robots.txt.liquid` edits where they help. - **Internal links at volume.** Hundreds to thousands per month, so new pages are crawled and ranking pages pass strength to the ones that need it. ### Who this is for We work best with Chinese brands selling to Western markets and with brands whose products cost $1,000 or more. If you have a small catalog at a low price point, SEO probably won't pay back and we will tell you so. The [fit score](/tools/shopify-seo-fit-score/) takes two minutes. ## What you get every month This is what our Standard plan has included. Exact scope is set after the audit, based on your catalog and competition. ### 10+ hours of keyword research Roughly 10,000 keywords narrowed to about 60 targets for the month. ### 20 money collection pages New or rebuilt collection pages aimed at buyer keywords. ### ~20 articles, ~100,000 words Buying guides, comparisons and how-tos, usually 1,500 to 3,500 words each. AI-drafted, human-edited, checked by at least three people. ### 15+ hours of technical fixes and schema Theme fixes, structured data, crawl and indexing issues. ### 500 to 3,000 internal links Planned per target keyword, added across collections, products and articles. ### Existing content optimization Pages already sitting on page two get rewritten and relinked first. ### Monthly revenue report + live sheet Revenue, positions, traffic and impressions from Shopify, GSC, Ahrefs and Semrush, plus a Google Sheet of everything published. ### Bonus: a RAG chatbot A custom chatbot trained on your products, included on the plan. ## How we compare to the other ways to do Shopify SEO | | SmartEcomSEO | Generalist agency | Freelancer | In-house hire | |---|---|---|---|---| | Shopify-specific knowledge | Only Shopify | Varies by account manager | Varies widely | Depends on the hire | | Monthly output | ~20 collections, ~20 articles, 500+ links | Often a few blog posts | Limited by one person's hours | One person, plus whatever else they own | | Technical theme fixes | Included | Usually an audit, fixes billed separately | Sometimes | Needs a developer | | Content review | At least 3 people per piece | Editor, if any | Self-edited | Your team | | Contract | Month to month | Often 6 to 12 months | Flexible | Salary, benefits, notice period | | Reporting | Revenue, positions, traffic, live sheet | Traffic and rankings | Varies | Whatever you set up | | Best when | You want volume and revenue focus on Shopify | You need many channels from one vendor | Budget is tight and scope is narrow | SEO is a long-term core function | ## The same pages win in AI search ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews cite pages that answer a specific question with specific facts. That is what a good collection page or buying guide already does. Our [GEO work](/geo-agency/) adds the pieces AI systems lean on most: clean product data, consistent brand facts across the web and pages that state answers plainly. ## Questions about our Shopify SEO services ## Start with a free audit We will show you the keywords you are missing and the collection pages that would win them. [Get a free audit](/free-audit/) ## Frequently asked questions ### What is included in your Shopify SEO services? Our Standard plan has included 10+ hours of keyword research, around 20 collection pages and 20 articles a month, 15+ hours of technical fixes and schema, 500 to 3,000 internal links, optimization of existing pages, and a monthly revenue report with a live Google Sheet of everything published. Link building and digital PR are available at extra cost. ### Why hire a Shopify SEO expert instead of a general SEO agency? Shopify has fixed URL structures, an auto-generated sitemap, theme-driven internal links and its own way of handling variants, tags and filters. A Shopify SEO expert knows which of those you can change and how. A generalist often spends months learning the platform, or recommends fixes that Shopify does not allow, like removing the /products/ prefix. ### Do you offer one-off Shopify SEO consulting? Our main offer is monthly work, because rankings come from pages shipped over time. For stores that want a starting point, we run a full SEO audit with a prioritized fix list your team can implement. You can also request a free mini audit first to see how we think before committing to anything. ### Do you build backlinks? Yes, at extra cost. We only do white-hat link building and digital PR: real placements on relevant sites, earned through outreach and stories worth covering. No private blog networks and no link packages. Many of our clients see strong gains from collection pages and internal links before they need to spend on links at all. ### Can you work on Shopify Plus stores and international setups? Yes. We work on Shopify and Shopify Plus stores, including stores using Shopify Markets with subfolders or country domains. International SEO is one of the most common problems we fix for Chinese brands, especially hreflang mismatches, untranslated pages served in the wrong market and duplicate English storefronts competing with each other.
