02

Historical URL Recovery

03

Corrected Technical Signals

Corrected 301 redirects, removed broken internal links, and managed canonical and robots.txt technical signals.

Key details about the technical SEO recovery, redirect work, and structured data validation.

We used available store data and archived records to rebuild high-value product pages when complete backups were unavailable.

The deleted pages already held Google rankings. Fast restoration reduced the risk of losing indexation, organic traffic, and revenue.

We audited broken URLs, repaired internal links, and created or updated 301 redirects to retain SEO value and improve user journeys.

We reviewed product, merchant listing, breadcrumb, review, organisation, and local business structured data through Google Rich Results testing.

Theme Shopy analysed traffic quality to identify bot activity that affected reporting and performance data. We then applied practical measures to improve data accuracy and support better SEO decisions.
