A successful e-commerce website needs more than great design and functional shopping features. It needs a solid technical foundation that allows search engines to discover its content, customers to find relevant products, and business owners to understand how their website performs.
Digital Rebellion implemented an integrated SEO, analytics and Google Shopping infrastructure for Water Purification Online, connecting the WordPress and WooCommerce platform with Google’s essential search, shopping and performance measurement tools.

Google Search Console was connected to provide insight into how the website appears and performs in Google Search.
