Tips when setting up the Google & YouTube app

  • Ensure your product data is accurate in the Google & YouTube app so you are providing Google with rich product content. Rich product details help shoppers find and filter products in their search. For example, if a shopper searches for “large blue t-shirt”, Google shows listings that best match the search criteria by looking at the data provided for the attributes size, color, and title. Shoppers can also use attributes to filter products in their search.
  • Users rely on product images to make shopping decisions. Check that the product images in Shopify are clear and high quality. Products withhigh-quality imagesare more likely to show in relevant search queries and will capture the attention of your customers.
  • Optimize your products with additional product details. Use all relevant details for your products, not just the ones that are required, to provide shoppers with additional useful information. For example, details like size and color are optional if you’re not selling clothing. However, this information may still be helpful to include for other product categories.
  • Follow best practices for product title structure. Use your product titles to attract people to your listings by including important details, such as strong brand names, age group, gender, size, color, etc., and put key details at the front of your product title, especially if they’re not visible in the image. TheBasic naming structure= Brand + Product Type + Attributes.
