I have a high SEO score but very low traffic

[accoustika]

I've already implemented all the best practices I could find for SEO and my SEO score is 100 on auditing sites but I'm barely seeing any traffic on my store. What am I missing? Is this normal? Does it take a lot of time to start seeing traffic or am I doing something wrong?

What is your URL? That is really the only way I can know what is being missed.

Welp, you've learned a valuable lesson: your SEO score has nothing at all to do with your traffic. But I'm sorry to hear you're struggling to get traffic - this is the most common problem merchants face, so you're not alone. You're in good company. 

Perfect SEO scores are just the foundation - like having a clean, well-organized store. Real traffic comes from building trust over time (usually 12+ months). Focus on creating helpful content, getting customer reviews, and targeting specific keywords you can actually rank for. Keep working on your store while traffic grows naturally - this is normal for new sites.
