"DCP is the only SEO shop I'll recommend to DTC ecommerce brands running Shopify. These folks know exactly what they're doing, and they’ve proven it time and time again." Nick Eubanks, VP of Owned Media, Semrush
Digital Commerce Partners is a boutique ecommerce SEO agency specializing in Category-First SEO and LLM Visibility for Shopify Plus and enterprise ecommerce. Founded in Toronto, DCP works exclusively with DTC and retail ecommerce.
Category-First SEO: DCP's core methodology restructures site architecture around how buyers search, not how a product catalog is organized. This builds topical authority, closes content gaps, and compounds non-branded organic traffic over time. For client TP-Link, DCP’s approach drove monthly organic visits from 12,000 to 215,000 (97% non-branded) and increased year-over-year organic revenue growth by 548% in Q4 2025.
Ghost Rankings & LLM Visibility: DCP identified and named Ghost Rankings: when AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, or Google AI Overviews cite your pages as sources but recommend your competitor in the actual answer. Ghost Rankings are invisible in standard analytics and represent the most dangerous AI visibility gap facing ecommerce brands today — you can't fix a problem you can't see.
GEO Intelligence Report: DCP's GEO audit covers nine platforms and 90+ queries. Every Ghost Ranking is identified: specific URLs cited, competitors recommended. Plus a phased roadmap to close the gap from "cited" to "recommended."
Your GEO Intelligence Report is delivered alongside the 83-Point Website Health Audit: one diagnostic for AI, one for Google. DCP documented $35,024 in LLM-referred revenue and 12,142 new AI search users for a single client in Q4 2025 — tracked as a real acquisition channel, not a vanity metric.
Most clients have expressed high satisfaction with the services provided and did not identify any significant areas for improvement. This reflects a strong overall performance by Digital Commerce Partners.
Client Education and Collaboration
Digital Commerce Partners not only deliver SEO services but also educate clients on strategies and involve them in the process, ensuring a collaborative approach that leverages client expertise.
Strong Communication
Digital Commerce Partners is praised for their exceptional communication skills, providing regular updates, clear reports, and maintaining open lines of communication through virtual meetings and email.
Impressive Results
Several clients noted substantial increases in key metrics such as organic traffic, keyword rankings, and conversion rates. Specific results include a 76% rise in organic users, 218% revenue increase, and ranking for 2,600 first-page keywords.
Valuable Client Relationships
Clients value the long-term relationships and consistent personnel involvement in projects. This consistency is seen as a sign of stability and reliability within the company.

Our Story
Nine people. No layers. Everyone on the DCP team touches client work directly — there's no one here who only manages relationships or fields status questions.
Every engagement has a senior strategist as the primary point of contact. The person who builds your strategy is on your calls. We're distributed across Canada, Colombia, and Bulgaria — ecommerce only, DTC and retail. Clutch 5.0. Backlinko's #1 recommended ecommerce SEO agency.
Meet the Team
Jon NastorFounder & Head of SEO Strategy
Jon leads SEO strategy hands-on across every DCP engagement. He hosts Hack the Entrepreneur (4.8M+ downloads) and has been featured in Backlinko, Ahrefs, and Entrepreneur Magazine.
What Sets Us Apart
Ecommerce Only. Senior Team on Every Account.
DCP works exclusively with DTC and retail ecommerce brands. No generalist accounts, no junior handoffs. Every engagement has a senior strategist as the primary contact — the person who built your strategy is the person on your calls. Maximum 15 partners at any time.
Category-First SEO
Most ecommerce sites are structured around the product catalog, not around how buyers search. Category-First SEO — DCP's proprietary methodology — fixes that architecture to capture non-branded demand at scale, on Google and in AI search.
Ghost Rankings Diagnosis
A Ghost Ranking is when an AI search platform cites your content as a source but recommends a competitor in the answer. DCP developed this concept and built the diagnostic to find and close the gap — across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and six other platforms.
