SEO and blog

## SEO and GEO for your online store: Google and AI assistants find you

Your store is ready for Google from day one: the sitemap builds itself, and filtered pages don't count as duplicates. You add meta descriptions, the file for AI assistants (llms.txt), and redirects from old URLs whenever you choose.

GEO

## AI assistants read what you write

People ask assistants “where to buy.” Your store publishes llms.txt: a file where you describe what you sell and which pages the assistant should read, in your own words.

The assistant decides whether and when to cite your store. You give it the right text.

301 redirects and sitemap

## Keep your rankings when URLs change

When you migrate or rename a product or category, a permanent redirect takes the old URL to the new one, and Google transfers the ranking to the new URL. You set up the redirects: one by one or thousands at once from a CSV.

13,418 URLs with 301 redirects, redirected in 30 minutes - 0 lost¹

301 redirects+ AddImport from CSV
Old URLNew URLType
/old-shop/product-123→/product/etiopiaCSV

/products?id=88→/product/moka-potCSV
/old-shop/brand/*→/vendor/hariomanual
/products?id=91→/product/french-pressCSV

### The redirect follows the product
The redirect is tied to the product or category itself, not the URL. Rename it, and the URL changes while the redirect follows

### sitemap.xml updates itself
New products, categories, and articles enter the sitemap automatically. Submit the URL once in Search Console. With a Nitrogen storefront, your app writes the sitemap and robots.txt.

Every redirect is permanent (301). Advertising parameters in the old URL carry over to the new one.
