Connect Shopify

Publish SEOForge articles to your Shopify store's blog, with SEO title and description, tags and featured image.

SEOForge publishes to a Shopify blog through a small custom app that you create in your store. It only needs permission to read and write blog content.

Before you start#

Your store needs at least one blog. If it doesn't have one, go to Online Store → Blog posts → Manage blogs in Shopify and create one.

Connect your store#

  1. Create an app in the Shopify Dev Dashboard

    Create a new app for your store. Give it exactly two scopes: read_content and write_content.

  2. Release and install the app

    Release the app version, then install it on your store.

  3. Copy the credentials

    From the app's settings, copy the Client ID and Client Secret.

  4. Enter them in SEOForge

    In Settings → Integrations, choose Shopify. Enter your Shopify Store URL (mystore.myshopify.com, mystore or your own domain all work), the Client ID and the Client Secret.

  5. Test and choose a blog

    Click Test Connection. Then pick the Target Blog, set the Author Name (default "SEOForge") and the Default Post Status, and save.

The Shopify connection form in SEOForge

The setup form in SEOForge also has a step-by-step guide under How do I get my Client ID and Client Secret?

What gets published#

  • Title and article body
  • Author name
  • The primary keyword as a tag
  • The meta description as the post summary
  • The featured image
  • SEO title and description (up to 255 characters each)
  • A URL handle from the primary keyword. If it's taken, SEOForge adds -2, -3 and so on
  • Published or hidden, from your Default Post Status

Each publish creates a new blog post.
