Hey Louie, Sorry for lagging on the response. E-commerce is great if you are groupon, Livingsocial, or Amazon local deals. Gets you a ton of work at a discounted price but getting my own website in front of that many people will be a challenge. I am still working on making changes to the site to make it more effective both in layout and SEO. Past customers have responded but new ones not so much.

Traffic can be bought. I donāt rely on SEO and I sell it as a service to some. It is great for branding so it is a necessity in and of itself for the whole big picture. Butā¦ To know where to point your SEO efforts itās usually best to throw down some cash and drive the traffic to it with the multitude of ways you can pay for targeted traffic.
Those daily deal sites really do have HUGE email marketing lists and Rolls Royce Budgets for media buys.
Just throwing that out there.
You can always drive traffic to your offers via Google Shopping or maybe even Amazon, Does Amazon let you post local classified ads or offer listings?
Bet you know what I will be googling in about 4 secondsā¦
Later.
Now here is a perfect example of a Rolls Royce Budget. They quit selling daily deals in December. It is now almost April and they are still running Google PPC ads.
Cra Craā¦
Just saying.
I donāt think the type of platform you use strictly restricts your google ranking. Weāve had good success with Wix.
Iām a web developer and SEO.
Wix is not nearly as robust as platforms such as Wordpress when it comes to SEO. It may work in certain situations (small service area etc), but I would never recommend it for a serious, production website.
