    • Technical Seo

    First, we will examine the site from the technical side. This is an important thing and has a significant impact on improving the appearance of your online store. We previously worked on an online store and had a problem with the site’s speed on the store’s mobile version, and it was necessary to solve it, as the largest category of visitors came from Mobile version route.

    When improving the speed, the positive effect appeared in increasing users through the mobile by approximately 50% during the first month. We also tested all store pages and tested the design and its compatibility with all devices, the ease of use of browsing products and the ease of making a purchase, in order to guarantee the visitor a good experience for us. .

    • key words

    Choosing the favorite words of your targeted visitors who have the intention of buying is an essential thing to increase your sales volume, and you can choose keywords by analyzing the words that top Google search results with many tools, the most famous of which are:

    1. Google keyword planner  
    2. Ubersuggest .
    3. Ahrefs .
    4. SEMRUSH .
    5. Keywords everywhere .

    And we preferred to choose Long tail keywords for people looking for products, for example, how to buy products, the importance of buying the product, everyone has a clear purchase intention that you will get through these words, for example if you offer Turkish carpets, you can choose words” Turkish carpet store / Turkish carpet price”, and if you do not know how to choose keywords, you can view the largest guide for keywords in detail from here .

    Then we use these words to write new content (articles) and publish it on the store's blog, in order to support the keyword at the end.

    For example, targeting the words related to the word Turkish carpets, which is “buying Turkish carpets” the best types of Turkish carpets “how to buy Turkish carpets”, then we support the word internally by directing internal links within the article to the product page directly.

    • Identify product pages that need improvement

    Here we will examine the product pages in the store by Google Analytics, and rank them from the least visited that have not achieved sales or achieved low sales, in order to study and improve them so that they are at the level of advanced pages, and you can register your store in it from here . 

    • Review the content of the pages

    Examining the content of the store pages is one of the important elements for developing and improving the store, so we will examine and analyze it whether it serves the visitor or not and meets the needs or not, and is it content that is easy for search engines to understand or not, where the clarity of the contents of the page is one of the elements that facilitate access As a result, pages appear faster.

    Checking the content of pages is one of the most important points in getting your online store’s high ranking 

    • Add content to sections

    We update the content and titles of the sections of the store, and put keywords in a smooth manner within the content, and this is because the section is to pave the visitor's journey to get its contents.

    • Optimize the most important pages in the store that get high visits and clicks

    We also advise you to extract pages with similar content, pages without content, and pages without Meta title, Meta description, so that they can be modified in addition to merging new words that affect the increase in sales inside them, and you can extract these pages through the Scramming Forge program, This is a great program that you can analyze your website pages with when you download a copy on a device from here .

    To see the details of the program and how to analyze the site, watch the following video:

    • Add Call to Action to encourage purchase

    The addition of the Call to Action in the Meta title and Meta description is one of the most important factors in increasing the percentage of sales, in order to provide the researcher who wants to buy, or had an inquiry before buying, to turn into a potential customer.

    For example, using the phrase “Buy the best Turkish rugs now” enjoy free shipping when buying Turkish rugs through us “Buy Turkish rugs now” “best collection of Turkish rugs shop now.” We find that the call to action here with the word “purchase” encourages the visitor to get on the product.

    • In-store word strategy

    Keywords can be used by all people, but only a few are good at employing words within the content.

    We are aware of the most important places to use words in order to obtain the result of increasing the volume of store sales, and these places:

    Title Meta title

    It is best to use the keyword at the beginning of the title, this change has a huge impact on store sales, but be careful not to exceed 60 characters.

    Short description Meta description

    This description is the first thing the reader sees, so the use of the word within it and our concern that its length does not exceed 160 characters only is necessary.

    Combine words in sub-headings, headlines, and article content

    Incorporating the target words into the headings of all kinds is necessary, so it is preferable to use the words in the main and sub-headings, which we denote by the H1, H2, H3 headers.

    Then merging it into the body of the content and this is very important, because it improves the placement of the word within the article or product description, in addition to the use of tags and derivatives, this creates an opportunity for you to appear in a greater proportion on all words, for example, “I buy the best Turkish rugs and land covers.” Turkish origin’, here we used the keyword “Turkish carpets” and the derivative word “Turkish land preserves”.

    You can learn how to write an essay and combine words correctly through the following video:

    • Observe the visual content

    Much attention should be paid to visual content, especially since Google gives great importance to visual content, and this played a major role when we worked on a store where we were encouraged to use human evidence of all kinds, for example (photos - videos - infographics - mind maps) within The store at that time.

    Canva is also the most used program for making different Infographics and you can use the free version that Canva offers by clicking here .

    • Internal links strategy

    In this internal linking strategy, or what is known as Internal Link, it is preferable to identify the most important pages in the store in order to help you create a series of internal links in the right way, so that the search engines that target it, namely Google, make sure of the importance of these pages and the relationship between them.

    • Share your store in marketing channels – Social Signals

    Organic traffic can be increased when you share your online store and its contents via social media platforms, for example (Instagram, Facebook, Linkedin, Pinterest, Plurk, Reddit, twitter, Tumblr).


    • Checking and building external links Backlinks

    We check the external links obtained by the store, and if there are expired links and links that include a percentage of the Spam Score, we disavow them and this is so that the online store is not damaged.

    Then we create an external link strategy of Dofollow or Nofollow type according to the analysis of competitor links.

    This check of external links we do through many tools such as Ahrefs tool, which is considered the best tool in analyzing competitors in terms of OFF Page, because it gives different statistics for store links, which are as follows:

    • Mention the number of Referring Domains, which are the domains that refer to your store.
    • Clarify the number of backlinks and Keyword Anchor text Cloud used to build these links.
    • Follow the links that point to your store, whether they are gained or lost, daily or weekly.

    • Measuring customer satisfaction 

    Customer satisfaction is the basis for increasing sales, so doing the survey with the actual customers of the store is essential for the benefit of your store, because asking customers what is the best thing about the store and the points they want to provide, they feel confident in your store.

    This is what we did in one of the online stores, so we sent a survey to the customers and left them space to say any observation they had, and this was one of the reasons for its success and the reason for increasing the sales of the online store.

    • Focus on improving ratings 

    Improving your Google store ratings has a significant impact on gaining more customers, and this is what we found after we improved the ratings of an online store, through which we gained a large segment of new visitors who depend on the experience and evaluation of previous visitors and accordingly make the decision to purchase from the store.

    With this, the journey of knowing how to increase the sales of your online store in our own way in Seo will be over.

    I also like to clarify that these steps have already been tested on various online stores and achieved a significant increase in sales.
