This class offers an introduction to e-commerce search engine optimization specifically designed for artists, makers and online shops.

In this class, you will learn the basics of what SEO is and how search engines like Google work. You’ll also learn some SEO best practices (aka what the search engines WANT you to do) as well as the dark side of SEO and what tactics you should steer clear of. 

You will also learn about keywords, search phrases, and how to use them to get your website content and products found by the search engines. You’ll learn about “on-page factors” aka the specific things you can do to your website or e-commerce shop to improve your visibility to the search engines. (Think page titles, meta descriptions, and alt text.) We'll also talk about image optimization and how to label and describe your images so that they get found by search engines like Google.

You will learn about building links to your website and how to get press for your business and your website, aka “digital PR", plus you will learn some e-commerce tips specific to handmade sellers, including how search engine optimization for marketplaces like Etsy and Amazon is different than SEO for Google. We’ll also talk through some conversion optimization basics, aka how to make sure that people BUY what you have to sell once you’ve gotten them to your website.
