Which website is better for SEO - Shopify or WordPress.org ?

Hello,

I would be INCREDIBLY thankful if somebody of You would tell me, which SEO agency to trust.

So, I am planning to open a webshop and I have been calling marketing/SEO agencies to ask for help in regards of creating website and working on SEO.

I called 2 agencies and asked, which platform (Shopify or WordPress.org) should I choose for my somewhat simple webshop.

AGENCY 1 said this: "To create a professional webshop (with custom design) from scratch on WordPress.org would cost You about $7000. If it's to much for You, then You can create a webshop by yourself using Shopify. HOWEVER, we don't do SEO for Shopify websites, because such website would rank poorly on Google. We only offer our SEO offers/management to websites created through WordPress."

I asked what is the problem with Shopify websites and got this response: "well, the code of websites created using Shopify is not good for SEO. The code looks messy and hard to read for Google, therefore it's not worth spending money to rank such website. Honestly, having Shopify webshop and spending money on SEO is a money waste... We suggest to create a website using Shopify and try to use Google Ads, Facebook Ads to get traffic."

AGENCY 2 said this: "We do SEO for any kind of websites, it doesn't matter if it's created using Shopify or WordPress.org."

I said that I heard rumors that Google does not rank Shopify websites as high as websites created using WordPress, because the codes of websites are much different. Got this response: "No, Google ranks Shopify webshops equily to WordPress.org webshops. The code is different, but it does not matter, it does not have an affect for Google ranking."

Guys, I am confused... Which agency is saying truth?

Sincerely,

Kristupas

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

are my YT keywords being ignored?

I have 3hr+ YT videos, so I chapter them out quite extensively. I've read in a couple places if I have too many keywords just grouped together they will all be ignored. Are my keywords being ignored...or are they even being crawled...through my chapters section? Also, is hashtagging in a chapter name good, bad, or not at all relevant? example chapters: Bookmarks: 0:00 Intro 4:25 Little Panda #littlepanda 13:04 Royale With Cheese Megaways #royalewithcheesemegaways 24:48 Big Bass Bonanza #bigbassbonanza 33:02 Book of Cats #bookofcats 44:11 Tractor Beam #tractorbeam submitted by /u/bauerwelson [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/3Gx8IPZ
