On-page SEO is an essential component of any online store's digital strategy. It's not just about optimizing keywords; it involves an entire ecosystem of content, structure, user experience, and markup to transform your site into a magnet for qualified traffic.

At Bofu , we believe that good on-page SEO for e-commerce is a mix of technical rigor, editorial relevance, and adaptation to artificial intelligence ( AIO , SXO , GEO ). Here's how.

Product Sheets: the heart of your SEO strategy

Each product listing represents an opportunity to appear in organic search results for specific, purchase-intent queries. A well-constructed listing also promotes rich snippets in Google, which improves click-through rates.

Elements to optimize in each product sheet:

Element SEO role Example or advice
Title Tag Influences the ranking "Model X by Brand Y - Women's Winter Boots"
Meta Description Influences click-through rate Engaging sentence including benefits and call to action
Product name Primary keywords Model + Make or Make only
Short description Quick, persuasive hook 2-3 convincing sentences
Long description Secondary keywords + semantic SEO Composition, uses, maintenance
Attributes (SKU, colors, sizes) Filtering + product diagram Allows for clear navigation and better markup
Optimized images Visual SEO + UX Explicit filename, descriptive ALT tag
Price Rich markup Clearly displayed, useful to the Offer diagram
Availability Impacts local results In stock, coming soon, etc.
Customer reviews User-generated content Promotes AEO and trust

Collections: Navigation vs. SEO Collections

It is essential to distinguish between two types of collections in an eCommerce store:

Navigation collections

  • Thoughts for UX and simplicity

  • Ex: “Women”, “Accessories”, “Sales”

  • Not very specific for search engines

SEO Collections

  • Target specific search intentions (MOFU)

  • Ex: “Waterproof ankle boots for women for fall”, “High-waisted organic cotton jeans”

  • Contain optimized text, internal links and a clear structure

These pages actively participate in your on-page SEO strategy and should be treated as pillars of mid-funnel content.

Informative content according to the conversion funnel

Phase Objective Content Types
TOFU (Top of Funnel) Attract attention Blog articles, thematic guides, answers to broad issues ( examples here )
MOFU (Middle of Funnel) Educate, convince Product comparisons, buying guides, SEO collections
BOFU (Bottom of Funnel) Convert Product sheets, limited offers, transactional landing pages

Good MOFU/BOFU content also needs to be AI-friendly. Check out our article on the impact of AI on SEO .

Blog and guides: a sustainable SEO lever

Blog articles and buying guides help you:

  • Answering specific questions (AEO)

  • Demonstrate your expertise

  • Improve internal meshing

For example, an article like How to Position Your Business in ChatGPT and Other AIs can fuel TOFU and boost your visibility.

Google Business Profile and Local Inventory

Even an eCommerce can benefit from local SEO , especially if the business offers:

  • In-store pickup

  • Physical points of sale

Integrating Google local inventory {:rel="nofollow"} through Merchant Center can strengthen this presence.

Trusted Pages and Conversion

Recommended pages:

  • Delivery Policy

  • Returns

  • Guarantee

  • Legal notices

Well optimized, they strengthen the user experience (SXO) and the overall performance of your product pages.

Conclusion

On-page SEO for eCommerce is the intersection of structure, content, technology, UX, and adaptation to new AI realities. By focusing on rich product descriptions, strategic collections, and content tailored to each stage of the funnel, you build a sustainable digital asset.
