I have seen many good open source ecom shops which are very good and can be easily ranked. Prestashop is one of them

What is open source ecom shop?
I guess by this you might be referring to ecommerce shops but i dont understand what you mean by the "open source" prefix.

By an 'open source' ecom shop, do you mean the platform used has it's code available to the public for tweaking?

If the code is available, who cleans out the bugs? Who works on the updates? Who does one call on to for tech support?

Open source means you can have it for free
tweak it and create your own new software and sell it

Hi,

According to me it is no doubt good doing SEO for e-commerce web site as, all the people are very much interested in landing there page in the search engine, as this is like if we do this then it will definitely increases the traffisc which results in top position of SERPS.

Thanks!

If the code is publicly available and there's an active community testing, using, and improving it, then I don't see why this can't be a benefit to online businesses.
