AI SEO for Shopify Stores
Optimise your Shopify store for the future of search. Our London team specialises in making your products discoverable in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot, and emerging AI search engines.
What is AI SEO?
AI SEO represents a fundamental shift in how consumers discover products online.
Traditional SEO focuses on ranking in Google's search results. AI SEO is about ensuring your products are recommended when users ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, or other AI assistants for shopping suggestions. These AI systems don't just return links—they provide direct answers, product comparisons, and personalised recommendations.
The challenge is that AI search engines work differently. They rely on structured data, entity understanding, and context rather than just keywords and backlinks. To succeed in this new landscape, Shopify stores need specialised optimisation strategies that make their products comprehensible and recommendable to AI systems.
At Infinite.agency, we're pioneers in AI SEO for Shopify. Our London team has developed proven strategies for improving your store's visibility in AI search results, ensuring you don't miss out on this rapidly growing source of qualified traffic.

Everything you need to know about AI SEO for Shopify.
Why is AI SEO important for my Shopify store?
AI search engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity are rapidly becoming how people discover products. Unlike traditional search, these AI systems provide direct recommendations rather than just links. If your products aren't optimised for AI discovery, you're missing out on a growing source of qualified traffic and sales. Early adoption gives you a competitive advantage as this channel continues to expand.
How do AI search engines differ from Google?
AI search engines use large language models to understand context, intent, and relationships between products. They rely heavily on structured data (schema markup), entity understanding, and comprehensive product information rather than just keywords and backlinks. AI systems also prioritise different factors like brand authority, product specificity, and how well information can be synthesised into helpful recommendations.
What's involved in AI SEO optimisation?
AI SEO optimisation includes implementing advanced schema markup (Product, Organization, FAQPage), creating entity-focused product descriptions, optimising images with detailed alt text and captions, building topical authority through content, ensuring your brand is established in knowledge graphs, and monitoring AI search performance. It's both a technical and content-driven approach.
How long does it take to see results from AI SEO?
Unlike traditional SEO, AI SEO can show results more quickly because AI systems are constantly learning and updating their knowledge. Initial optimisations may be reflected within weeks as AI systems recrawl your data. However, building sustained visibility and authority is an ongoing process that compounds over time. We typically see measurable improvements in AI search visibility within 2-3 months.
Do I need AI SEO if I already have good Google rankings?
Yes, absolutely. Google rankings and AI search visibility are separate channels. Even if you rank well in traditional search, you may not appear in AI recommendations. AI SEO complements your existing SEO efforts rather than replacing them. As AI assistants become more integrated into shopping experiences, optimising for this channel ensures you're not losing customers who use AI for product discovery.
Which AI search engines should I focus on?
The major players include ChatGPT (OpenAI), Perplexity AI, Claude (Anthropic), and Copilot (Microsoft). Each has slightly different approaches, but the foundational principles of AI SEO—structured data, entity optimisation, and comprehensive product information—apply across all platforms. Our optimisation strategies ensure your store is well-positioned across all major AI search engines.
Can you guarantee my products will appear in AI search results?
No agency can guarantee specific AI search rankings because these systems use proprietary algorithms that constantly evolve. However, we can dramatically improve your chances by implementing proven optimisation strategies. Our clients consistently see significant improvements in AI search visibility. We focus on the factors within your control and provide transparent reporting on your progress.
