Content Strategy.
A plan for what to publish.

A plan for what your site publishes and what each page is meant to bring in. We start from the searches your buyers run before they buy, then decide which pages to write, which to rewrite, and which to remove.

Plans are $1,500, $2,000 or $3,000 a month, at a fixed price, and you can stop at the end of any month.

In plain words

What an ecommerce content strategy covers.

A content strategy is the plan for what your site publishes, why, and what each page is meant to bring in.

It covers the pages that sell, such as category, service and product pages, as well as buying guides, comparison pages and blog posts, each one mapped to a real search your buyers run.

The difference between a strategy and a content calendar is where it starts: from the searches people run before they buy, not from what to post this week. If a page can't earn rankings, links or customers, it doesn't go in the plan.

What's included

What the SEO content strategy includes.

Every page in the plan has a job: a topic it owns, a search it answers, and a number it gets measured against. Nothing ships to fill a calendar.

  • 01

    Demand Map

    The searches your buyers run before they buy or get in touch, grouped by where they are: looking around, comparing options, or ready to act.

  • 02

    Page Plan

    Which pages your site needs, what each one is for, what it links to, and what it's meant to bring in. No pages nothing links to, and no two pages chasing the same searcher.

  • 03

    Briefs

    Ready-to-write briefs your writer or ours can work from: headings, the points to cover, sources, internal links, and where the page asks for the order or the inquiry.

  • 04

    Pages to Prune

    The pages holding your site back: old posts nobody reads, thin duplicates, expired categories. Each one marked redirect, merge or remove.

  • 05

    Twelve-Week Calendar

    What to publish and when, ordered so each new page supports the next instead of competing with it.

  • 06

    Page-by-Page Reporting

    Each page with the search visits and the orders or leads it brought in, so you can see which content is paying for itself and which isn't.

How it works

The content strategy process, step by step.

  1. Week 1

    Demand mapping and content audit

    Keyword research and intent classification across everything you sell, scored against every page you already have: what ranks, what is slipping, and what cannibalizes what.

  2. Week 2

    Content architecture and briefs

    Each group of searches assigned to the page type that can rank for it, with a brief built from the live results page rather than a guess.

  3. Weeks 3 to 12

    Publish, interlink and distribute

    Content ships on a weekly cadence with deliberate internal linking, plus a checklist for email, social, and PR so each piece gets some reach beyond search.

  4. Monthly

    Content reporting

    Every page tracked to organic sessions, assisted conversions, and revenue where your analytics can attribute it. Pages that underperform get refreshed, merged, or removed.

Go deeper

The kinds of content that bring in customers.

Content for search is more than a blog. These are the types that earn rankings, citations, and sales, in the order they tend to pay back.

  • 01

    Category and service page content

    The pages closest to a purchase are your collection pages if you sell products, or your service pages if you sell services, and most of them ship with nothing a search engine can rank.

    We write copy that targets buying searches, answers the sizing, fit, and selection questions people ask before they commit, and carries the internal links that push strength deeper into the site. The searches it targets come straight from ecommerce keyword research.

  • 02

    Buying guides and comparison content

    People research before they buy: best-of lists, this-versus-that comparisons, fit and material guides.

    These pages capture searches your product or service pages never will, and pass that interest along to the pages that convert. They are also the content AI assistants tend to quote when someone asks what to buy, which makes them useful on both surfaces.

  • 03

    Blog content and topical authority

    Search engines reward sites that show depth, not one-off posts.

    We build clusters: a main page on the broad topic, supporting posts on the specific questions competitors leave unanswered, and deliberate links between them. Each cluster supports the others, which is how a focused business can outrank a larger one that publishes at random.

  • 04

    Video and visual content

    Product and process video, how-to content, and the visuals that answer questions text handles poorly.

    Video keeps people on the page, can rank in video and image search, and gives email and social something worth sending. We brief it against the same search map as everything else, so it is made to convert rather than to fill a channel.

  • 05

    Reviews, photos, and other customer content

    Reviews, customer photos, questions and answers, and customer stories are what build trust at the moment someone decides.

    They are also third-party signals AI engines weigh when they choose which businesses to name. We design the prompts and placements that turn customer content into a ranking and conversion asset instead of leaving it buried in a widget.

  • 06

    The content engine: audit, calendar, and refresh

    Strategy is not a one-time exercise.

    We audit everything you have published, refresh the pages that are slipping, consolidate the ones cannibalizing each other, and remove the dead weight dragging on crawling and quality.

    What is left runs on a calendar ordered by what is most likely to bring in customers, and gets measured against goals you set rather than pageview counts. Clearing that crawl waste at the template level is the job of ecommerce technical SEO.

FAQ

Content strategy questions, answered.

  • Less than most agencies suggest. A focused cluster around one important category or service tends to do more than a scattered blog. We would rather ship eight pages mapped to what buyers search than thirty posts mapped to a calendar.

  • It depends on the buying stage. Category, product, and service copy win the searches closest to a purchase. Buying guides and comparison pages win the research stage. Blog clusters build the depth that lifts everything else. Video, reviews, and customer photos build trust and feed both conversion and AI citations. A complete plan uses all of them, chosen by what your buyers search at each stage rather than by what is easiest to produce.

  • Content marketing is the broad practice of attracting and keeping customers with useful content across blog, video, email, and social. An SEO content strategy is the spine that makes it pay: it decides what to create based on what buyers search and what each piece can earn in rankings and citations. We focus on that spine, so the content you produce builds on itself instead of just piling up.

  • Both are options. Most clients have us write it: AI handles the research assembly and the first structure, then a senior writer supplies the judgment and checks every claim. If you have writers already, we hand over briefs built from live search results and edit their drafts.

  • Lazy AI content will. Google's systems target unhelpful content regardless of who or what typed it. We use AI for research, grouping, and drafts, then put human judgment on accuracy, originality, and whether the page deserves to exist. That last question is the one that decides it.

  • Our focus is the search and revenue layer: what to create, for which search, in what structure, and how it links together. We brief content so it is ready to go out through your email, social, and paid channels, and we will advise on distribution, but running those campaigns day to day usually stays with your team or a channel specialist.

  • They are an asset, not a liability. A page that already has history and links pointing at it can often be improved faster than anything written from scratch, so existing content is usually the cheapest thing on the plan. The few that are genuinely dead get redirected so the links pointing at them are not wasted.
