Generation of meta tags Meta tags

(meta title and meta description) are important information for SEO. Search engines look at this information, understand it and use it in the SERP. As for the meta-description, it has the vocation of an advertising text. It drives visitors to a website from the SERPs, which is an obvious and important part of search marketing. It is therefore essential to have these bits of HTML code on your website. Smart SEO Shopify generates them automatically so you don’t have to do it manually. Moreover, Smart SEO Shopify generates the meta tags instantly. After installing the Smart SEO Shopify app, the dashboard window opens. To create meta tags, click Meta Tags in the navigation strip at the top of the page and you’ll see a list of all your products, posts, and pages with SEO score. In this column you will find a list of your keywords with a button that will take you to a new page. On this page, you will be able to edit your meta title and description. If you decide to change the meta description, try to write readable and compelling text using important keywords to improve the click-through rate for a given page.

Image Optimization

Make your website faster by optimizing the size of every image in your store, including product, collection, article, blog, and file images. Indeed, image search is growing in popularity and 36% of consumers use visual search. Additionally, more than half say visual information is more important than text when shopping online. So if you want your images to appear in search results, you need to do image SEO. Smart SEO Shopify can help you by generating image alt tags. Alt tags give search engines better image context, allowing them to properly index an image. When you use relevant alt tags on your product images, you also improve the SEO of your product pages.

Adding Structured Data

To improve your SEO, provide structured data in JSON-LD format to Google. If you don’t know JSON, don’t be intimidated. It’s pretty simple to use, and the app gives you sample tokens to choose from. Structured data is information about your store pages that goes beyond the title and description and that search engines interpret to understand your business. Smart SEO Shopify provides this essential SEO data to all search engines so they know the products and services you offer and can rank your website higher.

Sitemap Support

A sitemap is a fundamental part of any website’s SEO strategy because it helps search engines crawl your resources. Every Shopify store consistently generates a sitemap.xml file that contains links to all of your products, pages, collections, and blog posts. Search engines use the sitemap to quickly analyze the content of your web resources. With this app, you can submit your sitemap to Google Search Console to make sure your site can be easily crawled and indexed by Google.

Broken Links Broken

links lead to error pages and negatively affect user experience, which can increase the bounce rate for your domain. Smart SEO Shopify can automatically detect and fix broken links or non-existent pages that visitors encounter on your site.

Removal of microdata

Smart SEO helps you to check the presence of microdata in your theme in order to remove them. Microdata is structured data, but in an old format. The ideal is to delete them when they are still present on your website. In summary, Smart SEO is an SEO tool that will allow you to significantly reduce the time you spend optimizing the SEO of your store. The tool takes care of all aspects of your site in terms of SEO and you only have to focus on the things that matter most to your business.
