Hi
Is it possible to get my store indexed by google and if so do I have do to some manual steps to begin this process?
Thanks in advance
Hi @kooger21 ,
I would recommend that, once you’ve built your store to a place where you are happy with it, you submit your sitemap to Google.
In fact, I would also highly recommend this store launch checklist and our SEO Checklist. Going through these when you feel you are ready to launch can be invaluable, allowing you to double-check that you haven’t missed any key features, just before you go live.
Remember that Google really wants as much information about your store as possible so that they can index and rank you accordingly. Google does this best by crawling any written content you have and analyzing the traffic your store receives.
So I would also recommend that you start a blog in which you produce quality content related to your brand, and which you share through your social media and ads.
Here is A Beginner’s Guide to Content Marketing, and here is an eCommerce SEO 101 Video Series. You can learn how you can look up keywords to help make your content more relevant to whoever is looking for it.
I hope this all helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you for, when i try and submit my site to google, it wants me to do this (see screen shot), how would i achieve this?
Thanks
As outlined in the guide I sent you earlier about submitting your sitemap to Google, you need to verify your domain. The full process is explained step by step as I’ll show you in the screenshots below:
I hope this helps!
