From your shopping cart control panel under the Import / Export menu, export
your items in the "Google Product Search" format.
A great way to increase visibility on the Google search engine is to set up a
Google Product Search data feed. It's a free service from Google.
The steps to set it up are:
1. On your item pages, fill in the Brand, Condition, and Product Type fields for
your Products. For more information on specifying your "Product Type" click herehttp://www.google.com/support/merchants/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=160081
2. In the shopping cart, on the "Google Product Search" export page, make sure
all your categories are selected, then click the "Export & Save to Site" button.
That will create a product listing within your shop.
3. From the google page at http://www.google.com/intl/en_us/products/submit.html click
the "Start A Data Feed" button. (You will not need to start a new data feed each
time). That will take you to the New data feed page.
4. On that New Data Feed page type in your data feed name ( We suggest
googleproductfeed.txt ), and then click the Save Changes button.
5. Now you will be at their "Data feeds" page which will list your feed(s).
Under the "Upload schedule" column click the "Create" link (This is easier than
the manual upload or FTP methods). That will pop up a small window where you can
specify the frequency and url of your feed. We suggest a weekly frequency. In
the url field paste in the following url:
To save the information you just input click the "Schedule" button.
6. Now as you save an item you will want to occasionally select the option to
update your Google Product Search feed. Or come to this page after a large
number of updates and resave your feed file to the site. |
