SEO for OpenCart / ocStore — Full Optimization

SEO for OpenCart and ocStore — full technical optimization

A store can have a good range and sensible prices and still get no traffic, because search engines see it differently from a human being. This service covers the technical side: making pages indexable, stopping them competing with each other, and getting them to load fast enough.

Problems specific to OpenCart

• Duplicates from filters and sorting. Every combination of parameters creates a separate URL — a store with a thousand products easily produces tens of thousands of near-twin pages.
• One page under several addresses: with and without index.php, with and without a trailing slash, under different categories.
• Empty or identical meta tags across hundreds of product pages — they are generated from the name unless filled in by hand.
• Pagination that is either not indexed at all or indexed wholesale along with its duplicates.
• Language versions without correct hreflang, so the wrong language is shown to the wrong audience.

What is included

An audit of the current state, canonical URL configuration, work on filter and pagination indexation, clean URLs and duplicate removal, meta tags from templates with manual override where needed, structured data for products and reviews, coherent robots.txt and sitemap, and baseline page speed work.

What this service does not do

It is not link buying and it is not writing copy for every category. Technical optimization removes the obstacles — after that you need content and time. If the store is two weeks old, it is more honest to start with strategy than with fine tuning.
