WHY WE AUDIT BEFORE WE FIX, and what you keep either way.

A tool will give your store a score and a list of issues in a minute. What it cannot tell you is which issue is costing you orders. A missing alt tag sits at the same weight as a rule that hides your biggest collection from Google.

Our audit starts from the other end. We find the collections and products that already bring revenue, then work backward to whatever holds them down: indexing, duplicate URLs, app weight, thin copy, broken schema or a feed that disagrees with the page.

Every finding has to earn its place, under the rule Akshit Bhasin set for the team: “cut and remove any facts that don’t change what we’d do in search or ads.”

The free mini audit needs no access. One of our senior people checks your store and your AI visibility personally and sends you the five to ten fixes that would grow your revenue first. The first discovery call is on Google Meet.

The complete audit goes through everything, with access to your accounts. It costs ₹30,000 to ₹80,000 depending on your catalog size, and we adjust the fee against your first month if you go ahead. You keep the report either way.

Of the 100+ brands our team has worked with, the one we lead with is an ecommerce brand. In 2024, AI assistants sent it zero sales. Today AI search is a seven-figure sales channel for it. That took years of work. The audit decides where the work starts.

This page is the audit itself: what each version covers and what you receive. The fixing is on our Shopify AI SEO page.

What changes the plan

FOUR FACTS OUR AUDIT IS BUILT ON,
and what each one makes us check.

Each comes from Google’s own documentation, and each decides a section of the report AB Media Co hands you.

01SHOPIFY AI SEO AUDIT: FREE MINI AUDIT, THEN A COMPLETE TECHNICAL, CONTENT, SCHEMA, FEED AND AI VISIBILITY AUDIT FOR SHOPIFY STORES IN INDIA

A page must be indexed before any AI feature can use it

Google sets one entry condition for AI Overviews and AI Mode: a supporting link has to come from a page that is indexed and eligible to show with a snippet. It adds that there are no further technical requirements. So AI visibility starts as an indexing question. We test every revenue collection and product against that first, including any snippet rule a theme or app has added.

02SHOPIFY AI SEO AUDIT: FREE MINI AUDIT, THEN A COMPLETE TECHNICAL, CONTENT, SCHEMA, FEED AND AI VISIBILITY AUDIT FOR SHOPIFY STORES IN INDIA

Google does not expect every URL to be indexed

Search Console’s Page indexing help says non-indexed URLs can be fine, and asks you to be sure your key pages are indexed. A raw count of excluded pages tells you little on Shopify, where duplicates should drop out. We read the reason beside each one and raise it only when a page that earns money is caught in it.

Core Web Vitals give speed a hard target

Google asks for LCP within 2.5 seconds, INP under 200 milliseconds and CLS under 0.1, and says good scores align with what its core ranking systems seek to reward. We test collection and product templates on a phone, because that is where your apps load, then name the app or theme section behind each miss.

04SHOPIFY AI SEO AUDIT: FREE MINI AUDIT, THEN A COMPLETE TECHNICAL, CONTENT, SCHEMA, FEED AND AI VISIBILITY AUDIT FOR SHOPIFY STORES IN INDIA

Page, schema and feed have to agree

Google’s guidance on AI features wants structured data that matches the visible text and Merchant Center information that is current. Shipping and returns even have an order of precedence, with a product-level feed above page markup. So we lay page, schema and feed side by side for your top products and report each mismatch with the record to correct.

WHAT THE AUDIT COVERS, from the free version to the complete one.

SEE SHOPIFY AI SEO SERVICES →
  1. 01

    What the free mini audit gives you

    No access, no fee and no obligation. One of our senior people reads your store from the outside, asks your customers’ main buying questions of Google and ChatGPT, and sends you five to ten fixes in order of revenue.

  2. 02

    Technical and indexing review

    With access to Search Console and your Shopify admin, we read indexing, canonicals, duplicate collection paths, redirects, robots.txt.liquid, app scripts and Core Web Vitals. Each issue comes with the page it touches and the fix.

  3. 03

    Collection and product content review

    We compare collections and products with the questions shoppers ask, note what is thin or copied from a supplier, and state which term each page should own. Search Console comes first, so pages earning clicks are not put at risk.

  4. 04

    Schema and Merchant Center check

    Product markup on every template, covering price, stock, shipping, returns, reviews and GTIN, plus your feed compared with the live page for your top products.

  5. 05

    AI visibility across 100 buyer prompts

    100 real buyer prompts from your market, four AI tools, reported as a range. You see who gets named and which sources get cited, along with your first Share of Decision reading and the source map our digital PR works from.

  6. 06

    A competitor read, observed and labeled

    We open the stores that beat you on your main questions and label what we observed and what we inferred. Akshit Bhasin asks the team to “do thesis level analysis” and “don’t go round and round,” so you get one complete plan with its sources.

  7. 07

    A ranked fix list you keep

    Every finding is ranked by likely effect on orders, with the fix and the order of work. As Akshit Bhasin tells the team, “come to me with solutions not problems,” so nothing reaches you without its answer.

WHAT COMES AFTER AN AUDIT: the work it put in order.

These two online stores come from the 100+ brands AB Media Co has worked with. On the first, the guides were rewritten from customers’ own pre-purchase questions and no URL moved, which is the kind of call an audit exists to make. AI search went from nothing to a seven-figure channel, over years, and Performance Max climbed to about 27x the industry norm because that AI SEO work built a warm audience the ads could retarget, never on day one. On the second, Soni Cosmetics, the store could not convert the clicks its ads were buying, so we fixed both together: the store’s conversion rate climbed by more than half and monthly sales grew 7x.

WHAT STORE OWNERS ASK US ABOUT THE AUDIT, and how it works in practice.

REAL QUESTIONS, ANSWERED PROPERLY

What is a Shopify AI SEO audit?

It is a review of everything that decides whether your Shopify store ranks on Google and gets named in AI answers, ranked by what each problem costs you in orders.

That last part makes it an audit rather than a report. A report tells you what is wrong. Ours also tells you what it is worth, what to do about it and in what order.

Four areas get covered. Technical: indexing, duplicate paths, redirects, robots.txt.liquid, app scripts and speed on a phone. Content: which collections and products are thin or copied. Data: Product schema, reviews and your Merchant Center feed. AI visibility: which stores AI answers name for your customers’ questions, and which sources they cite.

Our team looks at all four together because the problems connect. A collection can fail because of an app, a robots.txt rule or the way your theme links to it, and the fix differs each time.

You end with one register of issues, ranked, with the page and the fix beside each.

What does the free mini audit cover?

It covers where your store stands today from the outside, and it ends with five to ten fixes that would grow your revenue first.

One of our senior people does it personally. They open your store on a phone, read your main collections and product pages, and check how you show up on Google for your main product searches. Then they ask ChatGPT and Google’s AI the questions your customers ask, and note who gets named instead of you.

Nothing is installed. Because it is done from the outside, it cannot see your Search Console data, your revenue by page or your feed, and we say clearly which findings need checking against them.

What it leaves out is the full crawl, the 100 prompts, the feed comparison and the complete fix list. Those need access and time.

There is no obligation to go further. You can take the list to your own team, and we are happy if you do, because you have seen how we think.

What does the complete Shopify AI SEO audit cover?

All of it: technical, content, data and AI visibility, plus a ranked plan at the end. We need Search Console, GA4, a collaborator account on your store and read access to Merchant Center, and you can remove all of it the day we finish.

On the technical side we crawl the store and check indexing, canonicals, collection paths, redirects, robots.txt.liquid, app scripts and Core Web Vitals. On content we name the page that should own each term. On data we review Product schema, reviews, price and stock, and compare your feed with the live page.

On AI visibility we run the 100 prompts. You get your first Share of Decision reading, how often the buyer, or the machine buying for them, picks you, and a map of the websites those answers cite.

It closes with the ranked fix list, a note of anything we did not audit, and a scope for the work. If you hire us, it is the document we work from. If you do not, it is still yours.

How much does a Shopify SEO audit cost, and how is the fee adjusted?

The mini audit costs nothing. For the complete audit you pay ₹30,000 to ₹80,000 depending on your catalog size, adjusted against your first month if you go ahead with us.

Why a range? Because the work scales with the store. A few hundred products with a handful of collections take far fewer hours to crawl, compare and write up than thousands of products across many collections. We confirm the figure after the mini audit, before you commit to anything.

Why charge at all? A complete audit means a senior person spending real hours in your accounts, running the prompts and comparing your feed line by line. If we gave that away, it would become a pitch.

Here is how the adjustment works. You pay the audit fee. If you then start the monthly program, that same amount comes off your first month, so the audit costs you nothing extra. If you do not, you keep the report and the fix list and you owe nothing more.

Is an automated Shopify SEO audit tool enough?

A tool is useful, and it is not enough, because it cannot tell you what a problem costs.

We use tools ourselves. They catch missing alt text, long titles and broken links quickly and cheaply, and you should run one.

What a tool does not know is your business. It cannot tell which collection brings the most orders or holds your strongest rankings. It will flag hundreds of small issues at the same urgency as the one rule keeping your biggest collection out of Google. It can give your store a healthy score while the page that matters is missing from the index.

AI visibility sits outside most tools as well. You need many questions, several AI tools and repeated runs before you can see a pattern, which is why we use 100 prompts and report a range.

Our team starts with the tool output, then adds the part only a person can do: reading it against your revenue and deciding what comes first.

How does the audit test the way AI answers recommend products?

We ask AI tools what your customers ask, repeatedly, and log which products and stores they name and what evidence they lean on.

AI answers now recommend specific products, and the store that gets named can win the order before anyone clicks a result. Google says its AI features may split a question into related searches across subtopics, so we test the buying question and the sub-questions around it: the comparison, the price band, the problem the product solves.

For each prompt we record whether you are named, who is named instead and which sources get cited. Then we compare that with your own store. Is the page indexed and eligible for a snippet? Does it answer in its first lines? Does your Product schema match the visible page? Is your feed current?

Each gap goes in the fix list, and the cited sources become the map for digital PR. The mini audit runs a short version of this by hand, with no access needed.

What does a Shopify SEO audit usually find?

In our experience, the same handful of problems: empty collections, duplicate product paths, leftover app code, conflicting schema and product facts that disagree across channels.

That is a pattern we see, not a statistic, and every store has its own order of priority. Collections are often a heading and a grid, with nothing for Google or an AI answer to use. Product pages carry the supplier’s text, so they read like every other store selling that item. Prices and stock differ between page and feed.

Then come the quiet losses. Deleted products with no redirect, even though they still get clicks. Impressions from rank trackers rather than buyers. Search Console sitting in a developer’s name, which we help you move into your own.

None of this is hard to fix once it is on a list with an order. The hard part is knowing which of them is costing you orders right now, and that is the job the audit does.

What happens after the audit?

You decide. You can take the fix list to your own team, or you can hire us and we start from the top of it.

Either way, you leave with a plan that stands alone: the ranked findings, the fix for each, the pages involved and the order of work. We write it so a competent developer or marketer can act on it without us.

If you hire us, the audit becomes the plan our team works from, and the fee comes off your first month. We record the baseline from the audit, so every later report compares with the same starting point.

Our guarantee starts from that baseline as well: a 30 to 50% rise in AI search impressions within 90 days, measured in your own Search Console, and your mentions across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity tracked beside it.

If the audit shows your store needs nothing urgent, we will tell you that too, and you can call us when it does.

Which team runs the best Shopify SEO audit in India?

AB Media Co, and our reasoning is simple: we audit as the team that has to live with the result.

Our record since Akshit Bhasin founded us more than ten years ago is 100+ brands, ₹3,300 Cr+ in revenue generated for clients and ₹100 Cr+ in ad spend managed. That history changes what we look for. We know what a fix does to orders, because we run the ads, the store and the search, not just a crawler.

So a senior person reviews every audit personally. Findings go into one register, so nothing gets lost between reports. And because we are aggressive about what gets fixed, the plan is written to be acted on in the first month, not filed away.

The same method sits behind the store on the first card.

If you want proof before you pay, judge the five to ten fixes from your free mini audit, then decide.

Can you audit a store that is not on Shopify?

Yes. The audit works the same way on WooCommerce and other platforms, with the platform checks swapped, and the pricing is the same.

The core questions do not change. Is Google indexing the pages that earn money? Are your categories and product pages strong enough to rank? Is your product data clean and consistent? Who do AI answers name instead of you?

What changes is the technical layer. On WooCommerce we look at hosting, plugins, caching, permalink settings and the WordPress setup, in place of themes and apps. Our WooCommerce AI SEO page covers that method.

If you are planning to move platforms, this is the best time to run one. An audit before the move lists the URLs, rankings and AI impressions you have to protect, so the redirect map is built from real data. Our migration page explains how we use it.

Either way you start the same way, with the mini audit, and we will tell you if a complete audit is worth it for your store.
