If the listings are not showing in google product search..

Check
Booth Settings
Title and Overview
Add my items to Google Shopping click yes

Go to advertising
Click on 9% basic fee and then select google shopping, bonanza promotions and bonanza affiliates

Go to Batch edit
Search optimize
check to see if you have your google attributes (if item does not or is too old to have the 3 main attributes, make sure the [[identifier_[URL removed]
Also note you can add the brand, mpn and upc here in this format
[[[URL removed] name]] [[[URL removed] [[[URL removed] in the batch edit

You can also select items to suppress the feed on if you wish on this screen

If all is right
Go to Selling Dashboard
Reports
Feed Diagnostics
Click on the Account ID number for the US
this will show your items in google product search

From this page you can also initiate a feed status review

Once the review is done, and if there is a problem, then a small list of items with problems will be returned as example of items rejected by google…

You will have to go back to this page to check on the review status. If there is a problem, click on the link
It will go to batch edit with list of items that have problems (if there are any)

It is a lot different than ebay/amazon where buyers go to browse…here you have to bring the buyers to you..

Your listings are not showing in Google Shopping probably because you have not completed the 4 basic [URL removed] UPC/MPN/BRAND and CONDITION.
I listed an item today and in just a few hours I was already on line and getting views. Good luck!

do you know how exactly the mpn is different from the upc? I have added upc codes to several items which still don’t show up

I sell toys, in my case the MPN number is usually near the UPC bar code. If not, I can find it in the manufacture’s page. I also look in other sites (like Walmart, Toys R Us, Target, etc) for that information. The UPC number has 12 digits. The MPN number is usually shorter and might include letters.

Thank you farfan

Your item may take time to be listed first as stated you need to make sure your listing meets all the criteria for google shopping (GTIN/UPC/ASIN) , second I would make sure your title is search friendly(No unessaey caps , proper spacing, etc) , third just wait . Each item takes different amount of time until reviewed by google , I always wait at least 48 hours until I expected my item to be on google shopping .
