Ecommerce SEO Through Helpful Content
Product Q&A, when done well, provides the “people-first content” that Google continues to optimize towards. See a chart from Google Search Console of an SMB Ecommerce merchant’s traffic over the last 16 months (taken on June 5, 2024). Keep in mind that this merchant is seasonal with peaks in the summer and dips in the winter, but you’ll see year-over-year (YOY) the impressions and clicks have almost doubled.
Answerbase also understands what product Q&A threads has regular search demand on Google to warrant their own landing pages. Those Q&A landing pages can notably grow your organic traffic to your site, see how the Q&A landing pages spawned by Answerbase have performed for that same period for that same merchant.
Again, both the impressions and clicks have almost doubled compared to last year and note that the click-through rate to the Q&A landing pages is 3x that of their normal site. Answerbase customers on average have thrives through all of the Google Helpful Content Updates, the introduction of the Helpful Content System and as they continued with their Core Rankings Systems Updates.
Helpful SEO Insights
SEO is changing rapidly as Google is focused on rewarding “people-first content” that demonstrates E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness) as well as how Google is now prioritizing product pages through “Merchant Listing Experiences” which makes Product Details Page SEO more important than ever. It’s a lot to keep up with so we’ve provided some helpful articles (see list) and we’d be happy to schedule a call and educate you on this shifting landscape so you’re best positioned to thrive within it.
