Indie stores SEO

To optimize your indie store for search engines, you can follow a few basic steps:

• Find keywords that are relevant to your products and your brand. What search terms can customers use to find your store?

• Add the keywords into your content, including page titles, descriptions, and image alt text.

• Make sure that your URLs and file names match the content.

• Add your full domain to Google Search Console, so that your indie online store website can be easily crawled and indexed.

• Create content that's relevant to your products and encourage other websites to link back to your indie online store.

Note

Google indexes your site automatically within 48 to 72 hours after you add or update information. You can't force Google to re-index your site, but you can prompt them to do so by using Google Search Console. Google doesn't index all of the pages on a site.
