What does 1Digital Agency do?

1Digital is a US-based eCommerce agency founded in Philadelphia in 2012. We work exclusively with online stores, providing SEO, AI and answer-engine optimization, PPC and Google Ads, conversion optimization, custom design and development, platform migrations, and email marketing tailored to BigCommerce, Shopify, Shopify Plus, Magento, and Adobe Commerce.

What platforms does 1Digital specialize in?

We focus on the major eCommerce platforms — BigCommerce, Shopify and Shopify Plus, Magento and Adobe Commerce. Each platform has its own technical realities for SEO, performance, and customization, and our team has worked across them since 2012 so recommendations account for what each platform actually allows rather than treating them generically.

How is 1Digital different from a general digital marketing agency?

We've worked exclusively with eCommerce since 2012, so our SEO, PPC, design, and development decisions account for the realities of online stores — large catalogs, faceted navigation, platform constraints, and product-level structured data. That specialization means recommendations are grounded in how online retail actually works rather than applied from a general marketing playbook.

How do I get started with 1Digital?

The best first step is a short conversation about your store, platform, and goals. From there we recommend an approach — SEO, PPC, design, migration, or a combination — scoped to what your store actually needs rather than a pre-packaged offering. You can reach our team through the contact page to start the conversation.

Does 1Digital handle both SEO and paid media?

Yes. We provide both organic SEO and paid media including Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, and paid social on Meta and LinkedIn, often as an integrated program because the channels reinforce each other when planned together. The mix depends on your store's goals, margins, and where the highest-leverage opportunities sit at the moment.

What eCommerce Clients Say About

1Digital^®

“

We've been working with 1Digital for 6 months now and couldn't be happier. We are currently maintaining 7.0+ ROAS and, based on the success of their ad management, we had the evidence we needed to justify doubling our budget on the Google platform. We also had the pleasure of working with the design department for some landing page overhaul — the final results exceeded expectations. We plan to continue with 1Digital and expand our relationship in the coming year.

— Ellen Sluder, smrtphone

“

1Digital has been my go-to agency for the past 3 years. We brought them on initially to update and redesign our website and we later brought them on to take on our PPC and SEO projects. We've had a great experience and 1Digital has consistently delivered on their promises.

— Mel Konhya, Oakwood Veneer

FAQ

1Digital^®— Quick Answers

The most common questions we hear from eCommerce leaders.

What is 1Digital® Agency?

1Digital^® Agency is a US-based eCommerce digital agency. Founded in 2012 and trusted by 400+ brands with a 4.9/5 rating across 941+verified reviews across Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, and Facebook. We're a full-service eCommerce agency specializing in Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, and more.

We focus on four outcomes: visibility, demand generation, conversion, and durable maintenance. No long-term contracts; we earn your trust through results.

How do you approach AI SEO alongside traditional eCommerce SEO?

Human strategy first: A dedicated strategist on your account sets the direction — AI tools we built accelerate the research, auditing, and analysis behind every recommendation.
Answer-Friendly Structure: Clear, scannable, structured content optimized for AI parsers.
Entity / Schema Clarity: Structured data deployment so engines parse your products precisely.
Citation-Earning Content: Authoritative, definitive content that AI engines lift and credit.
Agentic Commerce Readiness: Catalogs ready for autonomous shopping agents.
Measurement that matters: Track rankings, traffic, conversions, and assisted conversions — by surface.

Do you use AI to write our content?

Yes — for research, frameworks, and first drafts. A senior 1Digital® strategist edits, signs off, and is the named human accountable for every byline, every product description, and every campaign brief that ships under your brand. The strategist owns the final copy and decides what publishes.

Where AI fits: we use the proprietary tools we built internally to compress audit timelines, surface keyword and entity opportunities faster, draft content scaffolding, and validate structure against AI-engine requirements. Sharper inputs, faster execution — humans own the words you publish. No AI slop, ever.

What eCommerce services can you manage under one roof?

eCommerce SEO: Technical audits, product and category content, internal linking, schema, retail SEO.
AI SEO: AEO, GEO, ChatGPT SEO, Perplexity SEO, Gemini, Grok, and Google AI Overviews.
Paid Media: Google Ads, Shopping, PMax, paid social, Amazon Ads, feed management, and landing page alignment.
Design & Development: UX/UI, custom Shopify, BigCommerce and Magento builds, headless storefronts.
Analytics: GA4, server-side tracking, dashboards, attribution, and reporting you can actually act on.

What should I expect in the first 30–45 days?

Discovery + Goals: Review your historical performance, growth targets, and competitive landscape.
Audit + Roadmap: Site, content, paid, and analytics audits with prioritized recommendations.
Tracking Cleanup: Conversions, GA4, server-side tags, and ad platform conversions are clean and measurable.
Quick Wins: Ship 5–10 high-impact items first — speed, indexation, landing page focus, and assisted ad spend.

Can you handle eCommerce redesigns, rebuilds, and platform migrations without losing SEO?

Yes. Whether you're migrating between Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or Magento, we plan changes with URL mapping, redirect rules, content preservation, and schema parity so organic equity transfers intact.
