Chelsea Ivey
E-COMMERCE & SEO DIRECTOR
Chelsea has taken her love of all things data and turned it into a passion for SEO.
A Wanaka and Hawea Lake native, Chelsea can work with you on creating a clear and compelling message. From there she will dive into SEO keyword research to optimize your site based on search phrases and words that your clients and customers use. She will install your Google Analytics and help you figure out what, if any, ads you want to run - and how to run them.
In addition, Chelsea’s years in luxury retail management have made her an expert in eCommerce websites and setup. With her help, the back end of your eCommerce website will have a seamless inventory setup and function perfectly from the moment it launches.
At WWD we don’t believe you should be handed an empty eCommerce site and be left to your own devices to populate it. More often than not, that can go horribly wrong. We can work with you to make sure your Shopify site is completely perfect from day one, and create best practices for your team to move forward with to keep it running smoothly and looking beautiful.
