In the competitive world of e-commerce, optimizing your Shopify store’s SEO is essential to attract more customers and increase your sales. One of the effective methods to improve your search engine ranking is to add custom FAQs on multiple pages of your site. This helps provide unique content and avoid duplicate content, thus improving your online visibility. In this article, we’ll explain how to use the FancySection app to create FAQs without coding, and how it can improve your ranking on Google Search Console.
Why add custom FAQs?
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) are a great way to answer common customer questions while enriching your site’s content. By using different FAQs on each page, you avoid duplicate content, which is penalized by search engines. Additionally, by integrating structured data via JSON-LD, you increase your chances of appearing in Google’s rich results, which can improve your click-through rate.
