Google Shopping

[starion72]

On some of my products I have loaded all the barcodes up but can't find them at all on google shopping.

Some are quite near the front of the search, others just not present at all.

I've loaded the UPC number and make and description etc. Is there anything else I need to do?

I can't see anything you are doing wrong - Google shopping does seem to be a bit temperamental.

The item of yours I tried turned up ok

It's my lifeproof cases for iphone 4 I can't seem to find.
They often one of my better sellers elsewhere, though I can't find them on google shopping. It's annoying as I am very competitive on these models.

You have two 'Lifeproof' cases listed (Black and White) and both appear on Google Shopping.

ok thanks.

I was searching for like below for example.

Typing Lifeproof case into the google search box then clicking sub tab shopping. Doesn't google shopping search work like that then?

Sadly, Google insists that you provide UPIs. Then when you do they group your item with like items and add their own title and description - and your carefully crafted ones are discarded.

Not sure if this is the correct forum to post this on but I have not seen ANYTHING on Google shopping for at least a week now, not my stuff, not anyone else's NOTHING. Anytime I do a search for anything and click the shopping link on google it tells me there are no results for what I searched, even though I know there are things like laundry baskets out there for sale. Has anyone else had this issue?
