The meta descriptions and titles were not optimized as per the target keywords, so we revamped all of that to focus on certain keywords and keyphrases.
Post that, we started with content distribution and link-building to produce backlinks in the form of blogs, articles, PPTs, PDFs, videos, and infographics. We focused more on e-books and guides for their potential customers.
This was the first time we were working on SEO of a website built on Shopify. It was quite challenging for us but we analyzed the key areas and focused on the mobile experience of the website because 80% of their traffic came from mobile devices.
Since there were a lot of products, we started off with a certain set of products that already had some brand awareness. This helped us ranking on Google which ultimately boosted rankings for other products too.

In 3 months we were able to see the outputs of our efforts and were ranking on the 1st page for various products in the L-shaped sofa category.
