I’ve got about 4 listings where they mention flowers and one of those had the word leaf in it. It’s a pattern description for some china and casserole dishes.
So Google must be restricting listings that have the word flowers in the titles or maybe anything garden/plant related?

(this last link if the one where I removed the word leaf. So, do you think that Google shopping is getting picky about titles that include mention of plants maybe?
Now here is a listing that had showed up in GS before. Now it shows as restricted but there are others in GS. I removed the word tool but see that the ones in GS do include the word tool. For the life of me I cannot see why it would be restricted.
That’s about it in restricted listings that I have other than for two listings that have the words spoon and fork in it and the other only has the word spoon. So it seems GS has gotten picky about titles that include silverware words, too?
I did use the words vintage fork utensils and quite a few of those listings came up in GS, so maybe I need to include the word utensils in the title.
Here are the two listings for [URL removed]

In looking at these two listings above, they do include the words that have to do with food, so hmmm. Not sure. The same thing with these words though is that a lot come up in Google shopping.
A search of the internet does not offer much in the way of GS restricted products/words.

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:

Post a comment for:

- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
