FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does Froogle rank the same way as Google?

Froogle’s results are compiled by the same software Google use to compile results for its main index at Google.com, in order of relevance, and they have not used this as an excuse to choke it with paid advertising either. Just as Google does, Froogle displays keyword relevant Adwords alongside its product listings.

That said those that rank well on Google for certain terms will not necessarily see those results translate well onto rankings in Froogle.

How do I make sure Froogle has accurate information about my products?

As its software crawls the web, Froogle automatically identifies products for sale and the picture, price, and category associated with each product. Froogle may occasionally make incorrect assumptions about content, resulting in a mismatch between products and images. While we continuously fine tune this process, the best way to ensure accuracy is to provide us with a data feed that you know to contain the most up-to-date and accurate information about your products.

How do I get included in Froogle?

There are two ways you can get included in Froogle:

1. The first, though not the most effective is to let Google or Froogle crawl your site and pick up the information for itself. This is likely to result in inaccuracies in your product listing.
2. The second, and more effective way is to submit a data feed directly to Froogle. Create an Account With Froogle
3. To be eligible to submit a feed, you must sell products via your website and ship them to the buyer. If you sell services or custom products that do not have fixed prices, use your website only to promote an offline business, or are an affiliate marketing site, your site content may be crawled by and included in Google's web search, but it will not be included in Froogle. Nor will Froogle accept a data feed under these conditions.

How can I remove my site from Froogle?

To remove your sites from Froogle just create a robots.txt file. However by doing this you are removing our site from all Google search services including Google's web and image searches.
To remove certain products from the data feed:

• Set the expiry date of the offer to some predefined date or
• Create and send an update file with the products marked for delete.
• Or when you send in the next feed remove those products completely.

What is the advantage of submitting a data feed?

A data feed ensures that your site and all the products in your catalog that you want shown are included in Froogle. Plus, it lets you control the freshness and accuracy of your product information. Feeds can be easily updated as you add new products, change prices, offer special promotions, or discontinue products.
