If you're operating your own e-commerce website, Google will be your main source of traffic and sales. A combination of effective PPC advertising and SEO is essential to generate substantial revenue to your store.
On the SEO side, the best way to growth hack your way to page 1 of google is co-marketing. Contact other established businesses that offer products commonly paired with yours, but not competitors.

This will allow you to quickly grow your backlink profile with links and traffic coming from relevant sites. Your store will begin rising in the Google search results and you'll see an increase in sales.
