Rankings aren't made in marketing meetings. They're made in templates, response times and information architecture.

Shopware ships with solid SEO foundations — and loses them in practice through
slow storefronts, duplicate content from variants and filter pages, missing
structured data and overgrown category trees. These aren't content problems,
they're engineering problems. That's why Shopware SEO works best where the
SEO analysis and the code access sit in one team.

No one can honestly guarantee #1 positions — so we don't. We build the technical substance without which no shop ranks durably, and measure the effect directly in Search Console.

<about-convictions :convictions="[{"tag":"Duplicate content","title":"Variants flood the index","description":"Color and size variants without a canonical strategy create hundreds of competing URLs per product. Google spreads the relevance — and none of the pages rank. The fix lives in the variant logic, not in content."},{"tag":"Filter pages","title":"Facets without direction","description":"Filter combinations create infinite URL spaces that eat crawl budget. Good shops deliberately index the facets with search demand — and block the rest. That's configuration plus code, not a plugin switch."},{"tag":"Performance","title":"Slow doesn't rank","description":"Unused plugins, uncached storefronts and unoptimized images drag down Core Web Vitals. We measure first, then optimize — caching strategy, asset pipeline, infrastructure."},{"tag":"Redirects","title":"Relaunches without a redirect concept","description":"Every relaunch without complete redirect mapping burns years of ranking substance.

Being found when nobody googles anymore.

<template v-slot:quote="">

Your customer's next search may not be answered by a ranking — but by an AI deciding whom to cite.

</template>

<template v-slot:body="">

AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity are changing how merchants get found.
What gets cited is structured data, clear facts and machine-readable content —
exactly the technical substance that carries classic SEO too. We build both
in one pass: Schema.org markup, answerable content and clean information
architecture, so your shop shows up in search results and in AI answers.

<faq-section :items="[{"question":"Is Shopware good for SEO?","answer":"Yes — Shopware 6 ships with SEO URLs, canonicals, sitemaps and meta management out of the box. Whether a shop ranks is decided by the implementation on top, especially performance, duplicate-content control for variants and filters, structured data and category architecture."},{"question":"How do I optimize my Shopware shop for Google?","answer":"In this order — technical base (indexing, canonicals, sitemaps), performance (Core Web Vitals), structured data, then information architecture and content. Starting with content before the technology stands means filling a sieve."},{"question":"How long until SEO measures take effect?","answer":"Technical fixes often show within weeks; building rankings for competitive terms takes six to twelve months. That's why we prioritize by impact per effort — and measure every step in Search Console."},{"question":"Why a Shopware agency instead of an SEO agency?","answer":"An SEO agency writes recommendations your developers must implement — where they die in the backlog. With us, the same team analyzes and builds. The difference isn't the audit, it's the implementation rate."},{"question":"Does SEO also count for AI search like ChatGPT and AI Overviews?","answer":"Yes — AI answers preferentially cite pages with clear structure, structured data and verifiable facts. The technical substance we build is the same substance LLM crawlers evaluate. Our own site ships machine-readable content for exactly that reason."},{"question":"What does Shopware SEO cost?","answer":"The SEO audit is part of our system audit; ongoing SEO support typically starts as a four-figure monthly retainer, depending on competition and scope. One-off technical clean-ups are quoted as a project — after the audit, with a prioritized measure list."},{"question":"Do I need an SEO plugin for Shopware?","answer":"Usually not. Shopware 6 covers canonicals, meta data, sitemaps and SEO URLs in the core — plugins add value for redirects or rich snippets, but don't replace clean configuration. A plugin on a wrong foundation doesn't make the foundation right."},{"question":"How do I handle variants and duplicate content?","answer":"With a deliberate decision per product type — main variant as the canonical URL, deviating variants only independently indexable where real search demand exists. Shopware provides the levers; what matters is setting them consistently and steering filter pages deliberately."}]" background="default" label="FAQ">
