Submitting my products to Google Merchant Center.

[SandraSD]

Hello.

Just wondering if anyone has experience with Google Merchant Center.
We submitted our Data Feed to Google. All the products are active. However if one tries to put in search a general description of our product type, we don't come up in Shopping Results in Google Products search at all.
Our products only come up when one types in a detailed product description...

So I was wondering if it is because we are not using Google Check out and just link to our Zen Shopping Cart. Or is it a matter of paying for the keywords??
Does using Google Checkout increases your chances to be listed in search results??

Thanks.

Google Base has nothing to do with you being an adware customer or not. It is free service. Just like Google Search the product search has it's own algorethem. Age, Relative content and customer options are all factors in when and where you show up.

If you just uploaded your products, give them time to start showing your products. The only time Google Checkout comes into play is if the customer choose to only see products from stores that accept Google Checkout.
