An effective e-commerce product page captures the audience’s attention and compels them to convert to paying customers.
Many e-commerce businesses believe a product page is all about high-resolution images with detailed descriptions for each product.
Although these are important areas that need to be considered, thinking that they are the only elements needed to win the game for you is overly simplistic.

I’ve worked with a lot of travel brands over the years, ranging from household names to niche tour operators, and while a lot of SEO best practice can be standardized across the board – the travel vertical has its own nuances and challenges that throw some elements of best practice into question.

Oh, how things change!
There was a time when you just had to optimize your website’s pages for a group of different keywords and then when someone typed those words into a search engine, you’d show up! Not anymore.
Today, the search engines are way more advanced with their algorithms and their focus on trying to make sure that the user experience is the best it can be. Especially with Google.

In the last decade, Alphabet has systematically attempted to put its foot in the smartphone ecosystem, albeit with a lot of struggle.
