eCommerce website is all about. So, keeping your website architecture as clean and simple as possible is the mantra.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, there is no fixed rule about it. Giving that clean structure becomes more difficult if you have more individual products, more categories, and complex product filtering.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can start by keeping every page, the product pages, the category pages, the about us page, the contact us, literally every page as near as three clicks or less from the home page.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your website visitors or potential customers should not have to rely on opening many tabs every time. Also, they should be hitting the back button and figuring out where they are. This will lead to a higher bounce rate and low conversions. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if the visitors are confused, so will be Google. This will definitely hurt the Google Search rankings. It does not matter how keyword-rich you are.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step is to create your eCommerce website\u2019s hierarchy.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As said earlier, the structure should be as clean as possible. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is an example of a perfectly structured eCommerce website.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11271\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qeretail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ideal-structure-ecommerce.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"916\" height=\"525\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qeretail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ideal-structure-ecommerce.jpg 916w, https:\/\/www.qeretail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ideal-structure-ecommerce-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.qeretail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/ideal-structure-ecommerce-768x440.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 916px) 100vw, 916px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">See how it is not more than three layers deep; the fourth layer is your products.

Each of your URLs should display this hierarchy.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imagine a user visiting your website and clicking on a main category. Then, they go to a sub-category and land on a product page. <\/span>The web address (URL) for this journey should look like this: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/yourwebsite.com\/category\/subcategory\/product-page\">https:\/\/yourwebsite.com\/category\/subcategory\/product-page<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your clothing brand is selling winter cardigans, the URL for a specific cardigan could look like this: <\/span><em><a href=\"https:\/\/yourwebsite.com\/winter-clothing\/cardigans\/red-cardigan\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/yourwebsite.com\/winter-clothing\/cardigans\/red-cardigan<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.

Ensure your website uses secure encryption (HTTPS) for all URLs.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s good for ranking, adds a security layer, and builds trust, especially when people make payments on your site.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If it gets too tricky, consider getting help from an SEO expert.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Clean Up Your Website Code for Better Performance<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Messy code is like a messy room, making things slow. So, keep your website&#8217;s code clean and organized to make it work faster and better.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Messy code can slow down your eCommerce site, causing issues with both Google search rankings and customer experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To avoid this, use neat HTML and CSS and keep JavaScript to a minimum. If you&#8217;re using WordPress, be cautious with themes and plugins and choose reputable ones like WooCommerce.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Make Your Products Stand Out on Google<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adding special information to your product pages helps Google show more details in search results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, you can include ratings and price ranges. This makes your results look better; more people might click on them.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11291\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qeretail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-11-151501.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"679\" height=\"298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qeretail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-11-151501.png 679w, https:\/\/www.qeretail.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-11-151501-300x132.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 679px) 100vw, 679px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This extra info comes from structured data.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To learn how to do this for your products, check <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/developers.google.com\/search\/docs\/specialty\/ecommerce\/include-structured-data-relevant-to-ecommerce\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google&#8217;s guide on structured data<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for product pages.
