Below are 10 ecommerce SEO agencies, each checked against its own website in November 2026, ranked against a buyer checklist built from Google's own documentation.
What Ecommerce SEO Work Actually Involves
Store SEO is not blog SEO with product photos. The hard problems sit in the catalog.
Google's guide to faceted navigation says filter URLs built on parameters can create infinite URL spaces. That leads to overcrawling and slower discovery of the pages you actually want found.
Its URL structure guide for ecommerce adds two traps. Google ignores fragment identifiers, so colour variants behind a # can be missed. And two URLs that return the same product waste crawl time.
Then there is product data. Google recommends sharing product data two ways: structured data on product pages and a feed in Google Merchant Center. Structured data is not required to appear in Search, but Google says it helps it understand price, discount and shipping on a page.
A good ecommerce agency handles all of this, plus category content, links and reporting.
How We Ranked These Agencies
Every agency was scored against five questions drawn from Google's Do you need an SEO? page and the catalog issues above.
- Platform experience. Have they worked on Shopify, BigCommerce or Magento stores?
- Catalog skills. Can they handle duplicates, faceted navigation and migrations?
- Transparency. Will they share every change and the reason for it? Google tells you to ask.
- A clear target. Do they name a timeframe and a metric, such as revenue from non-branded organic search, not just traffic?
- Sound AI advice. Does their GEO or AEO advice line up with Google's guidance on generative AI features?

1. Goldie Agency
Goldie Agency is Julian Goldie's SEO and link building agency. Its homepage lists AI SEO (GEO and AEO), link building, a complete site audit and AI automation. The audit covers technical SEO and site health, content and keyword gaps, the backlink profile and a prioritised action plan, which is where catalog problems surface.
For a store, that means category and product pages built to answer what shoppers ask, links earned through what the agency calls manual outreach with no PBNs, and AI visibility tracking with monthly reports. The team tests AI SEO on its own sites every week before it rolls tactics out to clients.
The proof is Julian's own published numbers: 10+ years in SEO, 425K+ YouTube subscribers, 1,000+ SEO and link building campaigns, and a 100% Job Success Score on Upwork across 240+ clients. He is also the author of the best-selling book Link Building Mastery. His own site aiprofitboardroom.com grew from 328 Google clicks a month in October 2025 to 22,443 in October 2026, per its Search Console. Those are his figures, not a promise for your store.

Getting Your Products Into AI Answers
Several agencies above now sell AEO or GEO for stores. Google's position is plain. Its guide to optimizing for generative AI says that, from Google Search's point of view, this work is still SEO, and that you can ignore hacks like chunking content or creating llms.txt files, which Google Search does not use.
Its AI features page says there are no extra requirements to appear in AI Overviews or AI Mode. You can track how you show up there for free in the Search Console Generative AI performance report.
For ChatGPT, OpenAI's crawler docs say sites that opt out of OAI-SearchBot will not be shown in ChatGPT search answers. Check that your robots.txt allows it. For store-specific tactics, read the AEO for ecommerce guide.
Red Flags When You Hire
- A guaranteed #1 ranking. Google says no one can guarantee one.
- A claimed "special relationship" with Google or a "priority submit".
- Requests for full Search Console control before an audit. Google says to grant read access only at that stage.
- A plan that starts with dozens of new blog posts while the catalog still has duplicate URLs.
- Changes made to your site with no log of what changed and why.

How Julian's Team Uses AI on Store SEO
Julian runs much of his SEO research on AI agents. The Agent OS guide shows the agent setup he uses every day, and Goldie Bench shows which AI models build pages best in his one-shot tests. Agents can draft product descriptions and category intros fast, but a person still checks every claim before it goes live.

FAQ
What does an ecommerce SEO agency do?
It optimises category and product pages, fixes technical problems on large catalogs such as duplicates and filter URLs, and builds content and links that point shoppers to what you sell.
Should I hire a Shopify specialist or a general SEO agency?
If you are replatforming, pick one with experience on your platform. Otherwise, depth in SEO matters more than the platform badge.
Does more content help ecommerce SEO?
Not always. Searchbloom argues that catalog duplication is often the first fix, and Google's faceted navigation guide explains why filter URLs waste crawling.
How long does ecommerce SEO take?
Ask for an expected timeframe up front, as Google recommends.
