Is OpenCart Good for SEO?

Posted by JackBudd on October 18, 2024

The short answer is yes!

OpenCart offers various built-in features and extensions to help you optimise your website for search engines. If you'd like to get more customers, SEO is critical for visibility, and OpenCart provides the flexibility and tools you need to get your store ranking higher on Google and other search engines.

OpenCart is great for SEO because it allows you to easily manage important factors like SEO-friendly URLs, metadata, and product pages. Plus, with a few tweaks you can make it even more search-engine friendly. To help you with this, we've written several guides to ensure your OpenCart store reaches its full SEO potential.

How to Optimise Your Product Pages in OpenCart: Your product pages are where conversions happen. It's important to learn how to optimise your product titles, descriptions, and images for maximum search engine visibility.
How to Enable SEO-Friendly URLs in OpenCart: These are basically what the customer can see in their URL button at the top of the screen. But not only should they look professional, SEO-friendly URLs can also make a big difference in how search engines perceive your site.
Why Do You Need a robots.txt File?: The robots.txt file is essential for controlling how search engines crawl your site. See why this file is crucial for SEO and how you can set it up properly in OpenCart.
How to Set the Robots Meta Tag in OpenCart: Just like the robots.txt file, the robots meta tag helps search engines understand which pages to index and which to ignore. Find out how to implement this tag effectively within your OpenCart platform.
10 More Proven Strategies to Supercharge Your Website's Visibility: SEO is more than just metadata and keywords. We have 10 additional strategies that can give your OpenCart store a visibility boost, from link building to mobile optimisation.

Joe helped communicate complicated jargon into simpler terms, solved issues/queries quickly, and the follow up support has been invaluable.

Jo, Cold Spring Records

After many years of trying to update my website, dealing with problematic code, delays, etc, I found Antropy about 10 years ago. I can not say enough great things about the quality of their coding and stability of my website along with the professionalism of their staff. I now have a well functioning website that has stood the test of time. Our site is an e-commerce site so that having it up and running is crucial to our business. On the rare occasion that there is a problem with the site, Antropy's team is quick and responsive to finding the problem and fixing it quickly.
