SEO agency for D2C and
ecommerce brands in India
Paid ads rent traffic. Organic owns it. We build the SEO infrastructure that compounds month on month — ranking your products, categories and content so growth keeps arriving long after the ad budget stops.
What we do
End-to-end SEO built specifically for D2C and ecommerce — from the foundation layer to the content and authority that makes it compound.
Technical SEO
Core Web Vitals, crawlability, indexation, site architecture, canonicals, robots.txt, structured data and hreflang — the foundation every other layer builds on.
Content Strategy
Keyword clustering, topical authority maps, blog calendars and buying-guide content designed to capture intent at every stage of the D2C purchase funnel.
Product & Category Schema
Structured data for Product, Offer, Review, BreadcrumbList and FAQ — making your listings eligible for rich results and Google Shopping integrations.
AI Search Optimisation (AEO)
Answer Engine Optimisation and Generative Engine Optimisation to get your brand cited in Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini responses.
Link Building
Ethical, white-hat link acquisition through digital PR, niche media outreach and content partnerships — building domain authority without shortcuts.
Local SEO
Google Business Profile optimisation, local schema, geo-targeted content and citation building for D2C brands with offline touchpoints or city-specific targeting.
SEO for D2C is different
B2B SEO is about lead generation. D2C SEO is a revenue engine — and it requires a completely different playbook from what a generic agency would run.
The D2C SEO challenge
Product & category pages must rank and convert
You need pages that win rankings against Amazon, Flipkart and Nykaa AND convert the traffic they send. That's a design, copy and schema problem simultaneously.
Competing with marketplaces on your own terms
Marketplaces dominate generic keywords. D2C brands win by owning the brand-specific, long-tail and problem-aware searches that marketplace listings can't touch.
Reviews and UGC as ranking signals
Product review schema, customer UGC and verified purchase signals directly lift rich result eligibility and improve click-through rates in competitive SERPs.
Large SKU catalogues need automation
Hundreds of product variants require templatised, programmatic on-page SEO at scale — not manual page-by-page optimisation.
The Digistex D2C SEO advantage
AI Overview and AEO readiness
We structure content and schema so your brand appears in AI-generated answers — the new top-of-SERP real estate that most agencies haven't started optimising for.
Shopping-integrated schema
Product, Price and Availability schema piped from your Shopify store into Google — keeping your listings accurate in Shopping panels and comparison surfaces.
Revenue attribution, not rank vanity
We track organic sessions through to revenue in Shopify — not just keyword positions. Every SEO decision is tied back to CAC reduction and revenue per session.
Site speed as a conversion lever
For D2C, a 1-second page load improvement drives measurable checkout uplift. We treat Core Web Vitals as both an SEO signal and a CRO intervention.
Our SEO process
Three phases built around compounding returns — not one-off campaigns. Every phase produces measurable output before the next begins.
