Collection Page SEO

Collection Page SEO

Collections get the same style of dedicated SEO editor as products. Open one by going to Collections in the app and clicking any item in the list.

What You Can Edit

Title & description — the collection's on-page content.
Meta title & meta description — controls how the collection appears in Google search results.
URL handle — the collection's web address slug.
Main keyword & related keywords — target terms for this collection.
FAQs — shown via the Collection FAQ block, once added to your theme.
The collection's image — a single image (unlike products, collections have exactly one), with its own alt text and compression controls.

Step-by-Step Workflow

Generate keywords for the collection — think in terms of what a shopper would search for to find this group of products (e.g., "waterproof hiking boots" rather than a single product name).
Review the live checklist, which checks the same categories as products: keyword placement, content length, density, related keywords, and URL/meta formatting.
Edit manually or run "Fix all issues" — this rewrites the description and meta tags, generates FAQs, generates alt text for the image, and compresses the image, all in one pass.
Compress the image individually if you'd rather not run the full Fix All — click "Compress" to see a before/after size preview.
Save — nothing is written to Shopify (including the compressed image) until you click Save.

Why Collections Only Have One Image

Shopify collections support a single representative image (shown in your theme's collection grid/header), unlike products which can have a full gallery. The editor reflects this — you'll see one image row instead of a list.

Tips

If your collection groups very different products, consider whether a single main keyword can realistically cover all of them — sometimes it's worth splitting into two collections rather than forcing one keyword to fit everything.
The collection description is often shown directly on the storefront collection page (theme-dependent), so keep it useful to real shoppers, not just search engines.
