We started Valenquiria because we noticed something. Most online stores struggle with visibility, not because they lack good products, but because they're missing the technical foundation that search engines need. That gap between having a great store and actually being found — that's what we help bridge.
Our seminars aren't about quick tricks or shortcuts. They're about understanding how search engines evaluate e-commerce sites, what your customers are actually searching for, and how to build a sustainable presence that grows with your business.
Here's the thing about SEO for online stores: it's not just keywords. You're dealing with product feeds, category architecture, schema markup, site speed, mobile experience, and about twenty other moving parts. Miss one piece and your rankings suffer.
Our seminars break this down into digestible chunks. We start with how search engines crawl and index e-commerce sites — because if you don't understand that, nothing else makes sense. Then we move into practical work: optimizing product pages, building category structures that actually help people find things, creating content that answers real shopping questions.
Site architecture, crawl optimization, and performance tuning specific to online stores
Product descriptions, category pages, and content that matches shopping intent
Tracking what matters, interpreting the data, and making informed improvements
We're a small team, honestly. What we lack in size we make up for in experience — collectively, we've worked on e-commerce sites ranging from small specialty shops to platforms processing thousands of transactions daily.
Henrik spent eight years managing SEO for a major online electronics retailer before joining us. He's the person who can explain why your category pages aren't ranking and actually show you how to fix it. His seminars tend to run long because participants keep asking questions — which he considers a good sign.
Kristof handles the technical side — site speed, structured data, crawl optimization, all those things that make search engines happy. He's worked with over forty e-commerce platforms and has strong opinions about which ones make SEO easier (he'll share those opinions if you ask). Before Valenquiria, he consulted for online fashion retailers across Germany.
We tried the video course approach early on. People watched the content, but they weren't applying it. The problem with e-commerce SEO is that every store is different — different platforms, different product types, different competitive landscapes.
Seminars let us work through your specific situations. Someone brings up a challenge with their Shopify store's URL structure, and suddenly we're discussing solutions that benefit everyone in the room. That collaborative element — people sharing what's working for them, troubleshooting together — turns out to be incredibly valuable.
We run both online sessions and in-person seminars at our regional branches. Online works well for focused technical topics. In-person is better when we're doing hands-on optimization work or deep-diving into complex site audits.
SEO takes time. Competitive keywords might take six months or more to move. We're upfront about that because we'd rather you make informed decisions than chase unrealistic promises.
Every seminar includes actual optimization work. You'll leave with changes you can implement immediately, not just abstract concepts to think about later.
Search algorithms change. E-commerce platforms update. We run regular follow-up sessions for past participants to discuss what's new and how to adapt.
Whether you're on Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, or something custom-built, the principles remain the same. We adapt our examples to whatever platforms participants are using.
Our main facility is in Laatzen, just outside Hannover. But we've expanded to several regional locations across Germany because not everyone wants to travel for education. Online seminars reach the rest of the country — and occasionally participants from neighboring countries join those sessions too.
Whether you prefer learning from home or meeting face-to-face, we've got options. The content quality stays consistent either way.
