- How long until we see results?
- Most stores see first wins within 14-21 days (quick technical fixes, indexation improvements, and low-hanging fruit keywords). Significant revenue impact typically happens around 60-90 days as more competitive keywords start ranking.
- Do you work with stores outside New Zealand and Australia?
- Yes, but our expertise is in AU/NZ markets. We understand local search behaviour, seasonal trends, and what Aussie and Kiwi shoppers actually search for.
- What if our store is brand new with no traffic?
- We only work with stores getting at least 10K monthly visitors. If you're just starting out with little traffic, focus on paid ads first to validate product-market fit, then come back to us for SEO.
- Do we need to be on Shopify?
- Yes. Our entire process is built around Shopify's platform, structure, and technical setup. We don't work with WooCommerce, custom builds, or other platforms.
- What's included in the strategy call?
- Our SEO experts analyse your site's Core Web Vitals, crawl health, identify keyword opportunities, review your product feed setup, and show you exactly where you're losing organic sales.
- How is this different from hiring a freelancer?
- Freelancers are cheaper but you get what you pay for. We have a proven process, dedicated Shopify SEO experts, and a track record. If you want the cheapest option, hire a freelancer. If you want results, work with us.
- Do you do the Google Shopping setup too?
- Yes. Google Merchant Centre optimisation is included. We fix your product feed, set up Shopping campaigns properly, and make sure every product is visible in Shopping results.
- Why choose a Shopify SEO agency in Auckland?
- Because we're in the same timezone, we understand NZ search behaviour, and we know the competitive landscape inside out. We're not some generic overseas agency running a cookie-cutter playbook. We know exactly what Kiwi and Australian shoppers type into Google.
- What makes Affilino different from other Shopify SEO agencies in New Zealand?
- Most agencies cap you at 20 keywords and 5 pages a month. We don't play that game. We go after every profitable keyword opportunity across your entire store. Product pages, collection pages, blog content, Google Shopping. All of it. That's why our clients average 32% organic revenue growth.
