How spareday helps

Collection and product pages worth finding.

Shopify SEO means making your collection and product pages worth showing for the searches your customers make, then fixing the handful of platform issues that hold them back.

Shopify handles hosting, security and much of the technical setup. What it leaves is a smaller set of problems that appear on most stores: bare collection pages, supplier descriptions and duplicate addresses from filters and variants. spareday writes the pages and sorts out those issues.

What to fix

Four common issues on Shopify stores.

Shopify’s technical foundation is usually sound, so the work focuses on these areas.

Collection pages with no words
A grid of products gives search engines little to understand.
Supplier product descriptions
The same text appears on every store selling the item.
Variants and duplicate addresses
Products reachable at more than one address, which canonical tags should resolve.
Filter pages
Filters can create many thin addresses that need controlling.

How it works

Collections first, then products.

Collection pages usually carry the category searches with the most demand, so they come first.

Before you decide

Be clear about what can be promised.

Nobody controls Google’s results, so we do not promise a position or a sales figure. Some things are set by the platform and your theme; we say which ones before suggesting work.

You own the content we write. Ongoing work is agreed in the scope.

A few practical details

Before we get started.

Why start with collection pages?

People searching for a type of product usually land on a collection, and that is where most search demand sits.

Do we need to rewrite every product description?

No. Start with the products that sell or are searched most, then work down.

Are filter pages a problem?

They can be. The fix depends on how your store’s navigation is built, so it is checked before anything changes.
