    Free SEO Audit for BigCommerce Stores

    BigCommerce handles more technical SEO out of the box than most platforms, which makes the remaining problems easy to miss. Faceted category URLs, duplicated product content across categories and an untouched default robots configuration are where stores usually lose ground. This audit checks the live storefront rather than the admin settings.

    Why bigcommerce stores struggle with SEO

    Faceted filters generate crawlable URL variants for every combination of size, colour and price band.

    Products appearing in several categories can be reachable at more than one path unless canonicals are set deliberately.

    Manufacturer-supplied product descriptions are shared verbatim with every other retailer selling the same item.

    What we typically find on bigcommerce stores sites

    • Filter and sort parameters producing indexable duplicate category pages
    • Product schema missing price, availability or aggregate rating
    • Default meta description template repeated across hundreds of products
    • Large hero and lifestyle images not served in a modern format
    • Paginated category pages without self-referencing canonicals

    How we check this

    Nothing on this page is estimated. When you submit a URL the audit engine fetches the live page and runs the same probes on every site — the list above is simply the subset that fails most often on bigcommerce stores sites.

    • Server-side HTML fetch: title, meta description, headings, canonical, hreflang, robots directives and internal links are parsed from the response body.
    • Google PageSpeed Insights: Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) and the mobile render, pulled from the free public API.
    • Structured data: every JSON-LD, microdata and RDFa block is parsed and checked for the types this industry needs.
    • Crawlability: robots.txt rules, sitemap presence and reachability, HTTPS and certificate validity, and a sampled internal-link check for 404s.
