| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | sbrin | 5/5/11 9:08 AM | Hi Ronald, Why are the feeds currently being disapproved for Australia and also stating "Awaiting Review" at the same time? Both these status message contradict each other. |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | wwwallyh | 5/5/11 10:29 AM | Disapprovals may be clarified here http://www.google.com/support/merchants/bin/request.py?contact_type=disapproved Physical reviews by Google "Specialists" may take several weeks to accomplish |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | Ronald | 5/5/11 11:41 PM | Any items submitted to the new target countries needs to be reviewed our specialists before the items become active in the search results. Due to the volume of requests received, this may take upto 7 business days. Please wait for your items to be re |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | sbrin | 5/6/11 1:00 AM | Thanks for the heads up on this! So if the feed is submitting correctly to US and UK Product Search, would it comply to Australia too keeping in mind that the price would only change to AUD. |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | wwwallyh | 5/6/11 2:31 AM | and attribute id would be unique to the Australian feed |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | Ronald | 5/8/11 10:45 PM | You can submit items/data feeds to any of the supported target countries as long as your website and item content satisfies the requirements provided in this page: http://www.google.com/support/merchants/bin/answer.py?answer=160637. |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | bobsc89 | 5/9/11 9:26 AM | So, even though the US, UK, and Australia are all English you would still need separate websites because the prices on the landing pages would have to have different prices/currencies? OR does Only the Feed need the correct price/currency? |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | wwwallyh | 5/9/11 9:39 AM | has to reflect price & currency and taxes and charges, but not shipping.. also need unique id attribute across feeds can't use 27 in three feeds but you may use 27us, 27uk, 27au |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | bobsc89 | 5/9/11 10:22 AM | I wasn't asking about the id attribute. I'm asking about whether you need separate landing pages for each country due to price/currency? I realize that each feed would need the appropriate price/currency, but what about the "landing pages". |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | wwwallyh | 5/9/11 10:47 AM | Yes the single product with the correct currency has to be on the landing page pointed at by the link attribute |

| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | bobsc89 | 5/9/11 11:33 AM | Well, (for most people) it's not worth it to have separate "websites/landing pages" for each country just to provide the correct price/currency. |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | sparko123 | 7/29/11 7:35 AM | Has anyone had their product feed approved for Australia Google Shopping yet? We submitted a feed with just two products back in May when option became available and are still waiting for the products to be reviewed. Just curious to see if anyone i |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | AllyRaven | 8/3/11 4:55 AM | I posted an Australian feed a few weeks ago (4500+ products), and it has not been approved yet. I've been updating daily or better, fixing data quality issues. I'm on the verge of contacting Google about getting our feed approved... I'm assuming that |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | sparko123 | 8/4/11 8:05 AM | No, we have been updating our feed all along also. The feed has not expired, but it still has not been approved. From other threads regarding feeds for other new countries, the process appears to take a while. I just don't know exactly how long it |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | Visad | 8/1/12 12:24 AM | I have been unable to submit any feeds whatsoever. i think i have read every single forum available and never receive a response from Google. This has been going on for over 4 months now. Only reply i ever get from Google is read the policies. |
| Re: Google Shopping Arrives in Australia, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands | Mandie9 | 9/2/12 3:20 PM | How does one access the various google shopping for other countries? I am a US based personal assistant and do shopping/price comparisons all over the world. Whenever I try to change my location, I get kicked back to my city/state in the US (stupid I |
