Introduction

Boost your organic search traffic by taking advantage of the long-tail keywords.

Long-tail SEO collections are a list of collections that we generate based on your catalog, product attributes and category/collection structure.

Thanks to them, you will be able to rank on result pages for searches that you could not rank for before.

Follow the guide below to activate this feature.

​

Setup

1. Make sure your Depict SDK is on a new enough version to use Long-tail collections. You can verify this by navigating to Long-tail SEO in the Depict Portal and clicking on the URL buttons on the right of the table.

3. Set up a redirect from /depict-collections-sitemap.xml to that URL. If you are on one of the e-commerce platforms listed below click on their logos for a specific guide on how to do that.
