Guides for ecommerce and Shopify brands

Search is changing. Here is what is true, with the sources.

Plain guides to SEO, AI search and Shopify for the people who run the store. Every outside fact links to where it came from, and the first-hand numbers come from the Shopify brand I run myself.

The guides

Start with the question you are asking.

Seven guides so far, each one checked on the date it shows. New ones are added as the questions come up on build calls.

Price guide

Strategy guide

Ecommerce SEO strategy: start with the searches closest to a sale

Most ecommerce SEO advice is a list of everything you could do. A strategy is the order you do it in. This one starts with the pages a shopper lands on when they are ready to buy, and uses our own store's search data to show why.

Checklist

The Shopify SEO checklist: what Shopify handles, and what it leaves to you

Field guide

Claude for ecommerce SEO: the skills, connectors and checks behind a working engine

A chat window will write you a blog post. An engine does the research, drafts from your own data, checks its work and runs every week. The difference is three Claude features and one rule about who signs off.

8 minute readUpdated 10 November 2026

How the guides are written

Three rules, no exceptions.

Every outside fact has a source

Prices, platform features and research findings are numbered and linked at the foot of each guide, with the date they were checked.

First-hand numbers are labelled

Where a guide gives a number of our own, it comes from Flissie, the Shopify brand I run, and it says so. One store is not a benchmark.

Drafted on Claude, signed off by a person

The engine drafts from the sources, and I check and approve every guide before it is published. See how the engine works.
