Thank you so much for this! I have literally been reading articles and watching so many videos on this and just end up feeling overwhelmed because it is so much information, and you made it so simple and actionable!
No problem and I'm glad it was helpful. I experienced a similar thing when I was learning about SEO and it was quite daunting but hopefully, this video will make the learning process much simpler for others.
One thing I'd suggest is if you're going to have a call-to-action to contact you before making a purchase, have a chat button nearby (bottom of the screen or in-content link) so they can contact you without having to lift their eyes or search around.
I’m building a site for apple watch straps. Would you suggest a product page per colour? I see lots pf competitors that do and each product comes up on google shopping as colours. Specially as starting out, then in time with traffic and brand awareness i could condense it so they become one product with colour variants. What are your thoughts? Thank you, great video.
No problem, hope it was helpful. If you are doing a product page for every colour, then you are going to write custom titles, URLs and descriptions for each page to avoid search engines seeing it as duplicate content. To be honest, both ways will work and there are pros and cons of both, but you could actually do both if you wanted to and see which one works the best, trial and error is often the best way to find what works.
Thank you for sharing this video, by the way I have a question. I just deleted some of my product on my website, and I notice that they are still one the Google serach engine, this happen after the new version site map has been submited. How long does the google search engine craw my website again, there are something need to update and something need to delete. expecting for your reply, thank you sir.
No problem. They could be on there for months, the best thing to do when deleting products is to do 301 redirects to either a replacement product or the category that the product was in if there is no replacement, this lets Google know the page has changed and avoid customers getting a 404 page. You could also submit a removal request in search console but I would just let it do it organically.
The main image insight was gold!!! Question : is it worth using those tools that rank the keywords popularity (ex. Semrush) instead of doing the alphabet exercise?
Thank you, it is something so many people overlook and not just in SEO but anything that potentially can bring more traffic is something worth doing in my opinion. Semrush and Ahrefs are great tools but they are expensive, especially when you are just getting started. For me, I would look to use them alongside the alphabet method rather than instead of, the reason is the alphabet method can produce so many keywords that you would never of thought of and probably wouldn't be suggested in the other tools.
Have the pages already been indexed by search engines? A very long URL won't have an impact on your SEO but it does probably mean that your product titles are also very long, if so, then you may want to rethink these as they should only be 50-60 characters long.
If they already indexed, then best to leave them as they are, otherwise you will need to set up 301 redirects. But for future product listings, look at some best practices and look to implement them, I've done a complete guide that might be useful www.ecommerce-gold.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-ecommerce-seo/
Very clearly explained. Thank you for the effort, Paul.

I have product pages that has very long product url, is it okay to change url into a shorter one, does it affect SEO or anything?

@@EcommerceGold yes sir.. pages already indexed. Noted on optimizing product titles.
If they already indexed, then best to leave them as they are, otherwise you will need to set up 301 redirects. But for future product listings, look at some best practices and look to implement them, I've done a complete guide that might be useful www.ecommerce-gold.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-ecommerce-seo/
How we can implement metas (meta title) for millions of pages, especially if its ecommerce website.
What do you mean by implement meta titles?
