SEO traffic is stable, but orders are falling. Check the Purchase Funnel.

Don't start by changing SEO titles.

Review the journey:

Organic landing page → Product view → Add to cart → Checkout → Completed order

At each stage, ask:

- Has the number of users changed?
- Are products available?
- Do shipping costs appear unexpectedly?
- Are payment options working?
- Does checkout function properly on mobile?
- Is purchase tracking recording orders accurately?

This helps identify where the problem may lie.

Search visibility is only one part of e-commerce performance. The shopping experience and accurate measurement matter too.

Exactly! seo brings the traffic, but the user experience drives conversions. always identify the real bottleneck before making changes

also place a real test order yourself every week or so. we found a broken payment step that way that analytics never showed

this is a great point.we sometimes get so concerned about getting people into our website that we forget about what happens once they actually get there.sometimes even one small problem with the checkout process could be causing losses without doing anything to traffic.i would look into mobile purchases mysellf tbh.

Agree, if issue actually happening at checkout. I’d check funnel data to see where users got drop off and test buying process on mobile. Sometimes fixing small checkout issue make more difference than chasing rankings.

Exactly. No point chasing more traffic if people are dropping off before they buy. I'd check the funnel first before making SEO changes.
