Goal: To set up Google free shopping listings to improve product visibility and drive traffic to an online store.

Ideal Outcome: Products will be listed on Google Shopping for free, and customers can find and purchase products from the merchant’s online store.

Why this is done: To increase product visibility and drive traffic to the merchant’s online store at no cost. Merchants can increase their reach and attract new customers by making products more discoverable.

Where this is done: In Google Merchant Center.

When this is done: Anytime. However, doing this as soon as possible is recommended to take advantage of the free advertising opportunity.

Who does this: This may include the business owner, marketing team, or operations team, depending on the size and structure of the organization.
