Search Engine Optimization for your Shops - Part 1 Online

As we mentioned in the blog and forum a few weeks ago, we are working to better optimize your t-shirt shops so they are placed towards the top of organic search results.

The first part went online yesterday (yeah!). The title, description and keyword meta tags will now be semi-automatically generated for your t-shirt shops.

Speaking of semi-automatic, you will also have to pull your own weight. Trying not to sound parental, this improvement won’t work as planned without a little elbow finger grease. Once again, here are the most important points:

  1. Enter the meta data for your t-shirt shop home page. This advice is especially meant for shop partners who had entered their meta data in their own header.
  2. Give your t-shirt shops a name (instead of the default 1234567.spreadshirt.com). Both search engines and humans really, really don’t like “naked”, name-less shops.
  3. Enter names, descriptions and keywords for t-shirts, hoodies, tank tops, etc. which appear in your shops. This can be done for each product here by clicking on “details” under the product images.
  4. If you use your own categories, also give them a description.

More tips and information can be found in our SEO tutorial for t-shirt shop partners.

We’ll keep you up to date on any future changes. Happy optimizing!

    @Purple - let us know when you get those new designs up on products. It may seem that I keep repeating myself, but this is meant more for the subconscious: don’t forget to optimize them! ;-)
