Simple ways to improve your Shopify store: Theme Extensions overview

When it comes to improving your Shopify store, every little feature can make a big difference. Accentuate Custom Fields brings two amazing theme extensions that can help your store stand out - SEO Keywords and the Shipping Bar. Let’s explore how these extensions work and how they can be applied to your online store with ease.

1. SEO Keywords: Increase Your Search Visibility

Our SEO Keywords theme extension makes it easy to add product-specific keywords directly to your product pages. This means search engines can better understand your products, helping your store rank higher and attracting more shoppers.

 

Benefits:

 

  • Display important keywords right on your product pages.
  • Help search engines understand your content for better ranking.
  • Attract more organic traffic by standing out in search results.

 

How to Add SEO Keywords to Your Theme 

 

It’s super easy! Just open your theme editor, choose the spot where you want to place the keywords, click "Add block," and pick the SEO Keywords extension. You can customize your keywords using Shopify's product categories or other dynamic sources you may have set up. This way, the keywords stay relevant and help your product get noticed by more shoppers.

 

 

 

2. Sticky Promo Bar: Promote Offers and Discounts

 

The Sticky Promo Bar extension lets you share special offers, discounts, or free shipping messages at the top of your store. It’s a simple way to keep customers informed about your promotions without being too pushy.

 

 

Benefits:

 

  • Display promotional messages at the top of your store.
  • Include an optional call-to-action button to encourage quick actions.
  • Make the bar sticky, so it stays visible as customers scroll through your site.

 

How to Add a Sticky Promo Bar to Your Theme

 

Adding this feature is just as simple. We recommend placing it in the “header” section of your theme. Go to your theme editor, click “Add Section,” and choose the sticky promo bar extension. You can customize the text to highlight discounts, free shipping thresholds, or any other offers you'd like to showcase. The optional button is a great way to guide customers to specific pages or encourage them to make a purchase.

 

Using Category Metafields for Better Results

 

Category Metafields are essential for customizing how your products are displayed. For example, you can add details like "Color," "Recommended Skill Level," or "Snowboarding Style" for a snowboard product, as shown in the example below.

 

 

You can then use these metafields to make your SEO Keywords extension even more effective by linking directly to relevant product information. This means shoppers get a clear, informative view of your products, and search engines receive the data they need to improve your rankings.
