Instamojo provides product URLs that significantly enhance your store’s search engine ranking, page indexing, and user navigation. These benefits are built into the default product URLs generated for you, making it easier than ever to create an SEO-friendly online store.
The SEO Benefits of Instamojo's Product URLs
When you create a new product, Instamojo automatically generates a URL using the product title, ensuring that your URL is both descriptive and relevant.
Here are the key SEO benefits of these product URLs:
- Enhanced Search Engine Optimization: The autogenerated product URLs include important keywords related to your product, which helps search engines understand the content of your page, improving your chances of ranking higher in search results.
- Better Page Indexing: Clear, keyword-rich URLs are easier for search engines to crawl and index, ensuring your products are more likely to appear in relevant searches.
- User-Friendly Navigation: The descriptive nature of these URLs enhances the user experience by providing clear information about the product before the user even clicks on the link.
For example, when you create a product titled "Toothsi Aligner Foam," the automatically generated URL will look like this:
This URL already has built-in SEO benefits thanks to its clear structure and relevant keywords.
Customizing the Product URL
While the default product URLs offer significant SEO advantages, Instamojo allows you to customize the URL handle if you wish to further optimize it for branding or specific keywords. You can do this during the product creation process using the 'Customize Product URL' option.
For Example If you decide to change the URL handle from "toothsi-aligner-foam" to "toothsi-foamy-aligner," the updated product URL will be:
https://mishmashbakers.myinstamojo.com/product/toothsi-foamy-aligner
Please Note:
- After customizing the product URL handle, the previous URL will no longer function. The old link (e.g., https://mishmashbakers.myinstamojo.com/product/toothsi-aligner-foam) will result in an error, and customers will need to use the new URL.
- Customizing the URL handle will not update the product title.
SEO Best Practices for Product URLs
- Use clear and relevant keywords in your URL handle that describe the product.
- Keep the URL short and easy to read.
- Avoid unnecessary words or symbols that could clutter the URL.
- Ensure the product URL aligns with the product name for easy recall by users.
By leveraging both the default and customizable product URLs, you’re making your store more visible to search engines and customers alike. Take advantage of these features to help your store perform better in search results and attract more buyers!
