Google Product Search Taxonomy!

Monday, 9. November 2009 21:12

A lot of the self managed merchants whom I have helped always had questions about the data feed field “product_type”. This field acts as the category for the products that you are submitting to Google base/merchant center. While technically you can submit anything that you want in this field, Google has an actual taxonomy that you can follow. Using the category structure that Google provides will not only help to prevent product category and placement issues, it will increase your relevancy for category related search queries.

You can read the whole article here:
