The WooCommerce Advantage (But There’s a Catch…)
WooCommerce is an excellent platform for online retailers. It’s flexible, open-source, and integrates seamlessly with WordPress. But simply launching a store isn’t enough to drive traffic—or convert visitors.
Many businesses hire a developer to “build the site,” expecting organic sales to follow. The problem? Developers build functionality. SEO agencies build visibility and growth.
Developers build stores. SEO agencies build strategies.
Here’s what most developers focus on:
- Setting up WooCommerce and payment gateways
- Installing themes and plugins
- Ensuring the site is functional
That’s essential—but not sufficient.
An SEO WooCommerce agency like GoBig Digital focuses on:
- Keyword research and content strategy
- Technical SEO optimizations (beyond just basic setup)
- On-page SEO (product descriptions, metadata, headings)
- Internal linking and site structure
- CRO (conversion rate optimization)
- Performance and mobile UX improvements
- Analytics, reporting, and strategy alignment with marketing KPIs
It’s the difference between having a store that exists—and one that ranks, attracts, and converts.
Why technical SEO alone doesn’t deliver sales
Let’s say your developer adds a sitemap and configures Yoast or RankMath. Great. But:
- Are product pages targeting real, high-intent search terms?
- Are your categories structured for crawlability and UX?
- Is your blog working to attract top-of-funnel organic traffic?
- Are you using schema markup to boost visibility in SERPs?
- Are slow-loading images hurting your rankings?
Technical SEO is just one piece of the puzzle. Without strategy, you’re leaving traffic (and revenue) on the table.
