Your product pages look great.
Your prices are competitive.
But Google still sends traffic to your competitors.
Here’s the twist…
Category pages not product pages are what dominate Google.
Most online stores spend months tweaking product descriptions… while their competitors quietly win by optimising category pages.
And that mistake is costing you sales
What most business owners don’t realise is that Google trusts category pages more.
They have:
- More content
- More links
- More relevance
- More authority
That’s why at Social Media Max we build category pages that rank — not just look nice.
What is E-commerce Category Page SEO?
E-commerce category page SEO is the process of optimising your product collection pages so they rank for high-intent buying keywords like:
“Men’s leather jackets”
“Office printers”
“Eco-friendly cleaning products”
These pages attract shoppers who are ready to buy not just browsing.
Key Questions People Ask
Are category pages more important than product pages?
Yes. Category pages:
- Target bigger keywords
- Hold more authority
- Rank faster
- Drive more sales
How do I optimise category pages for SEO?
By improving:
- Titles & meta descriptions
- Content depth
- Internal links
- Filters
- Page speed
Why don’t most category pages rank?
Because they’re thin, slow and full of duplicate URLs.
This is exactly what we fix at Social Media Max SEO Services.

The Strategy Big E-commerce Brands Use
Here’s the secret…
Google doesn’t rank “stores.”
It ranks collections.
We build:
- Keyword-mapped category pages
- Content-rich landing sections
- SEO-friendly URLs
- Authority-driven internal links
That’s how brands dominate search results with help from Social Media Max.
The #1 Mistake Store Owners Make
They let:
- Filters create thousands of duplicate URLs
- Categories have no written content
- Products steal authority from collections
This silently kills rankings.
How to Choose the Right SEO Partner
Look for:
- E-commerce SEO specialists
- Category optimisation experience
- Technical SEO knowledge
- Conversion tracking
Avoid generic agencies that don’t understand online stores.
That’s why businesses choose Social Media Max.
