When optimizing your eCommerce site for SEO, it’s crucial to ensure that important URLs are not buried deeper than 1-3 clicks from the homepage. This helps search engines crawl your site more efficiently and improves user experience.
For Shopify:
- Log in to your Shopify admin panel.
- Navigate to Online Store > Navigation.
- Review your main menu and footer menu to ensure that important pages (like product categories, bestsellers, and new arrivals) are easily accessible.
- If necessary, add new menu items or reorganize existing ones to reduce the number of clicks required to reach key pages.
For WordPress (WooCommerce):
- Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.
- Go to Appearance > Menus.
- Check your primary menu and any other relevant menus to ensure that important pages are not buried too deep.
- Add or rearrange menu items as needed to make sure key pages are within 1-3 clicks from the homepage.
By keeping important URLs within 1-3 clicks from the homepage, you enhance both the crawlability of your site for search engines and the overall user experience for your visitors.
