Some of you have brought to our attention the annoyance of finding a product via google, clicking on it, and the product not being in stock. You'll be happy to know this has been addressed, if you want to know more then continue to read........
[b]Google Shopping:[/b]
All item styles of products that now appear within Google Shopping are now in stock. Say for example you are looking for a pair of (Specialized BG Trivent Road Shoes 2010)
When you type this search into google as it appears above, a link of ours appears. Under the link the text reads:
Specialized BG Trivent Road Shoes 2010 Shoe Colour White/Black/Red Shoe size 43.
This particular link that has appeared applies only to the size 43 in White/Black/Red, as the information under the click through link says. You will also notice we have that particular item in stock if you click through.
Google stipulate that products are uploaded at item level as you the customer may be searching for a specific colour/size of a product.
It may be the case that you require a size 45, if this is the case, search for (Specialized BG Trivent Road Shoes 2010 45), this then locates the size 45 from our site and it only appears because it is in stock.
This applies to all item styles of products we have on our website, if it appears on google shopping we definitely have a minimum of one item style of that particular product in stock for it to appear!
[b]Basic Google Listing[/b]
We have changed the Description Meta Tag to display, In Stock, Out Of Stock, Low Stock.
Now this change has already been implemented but due to Google not crawling data for the basic google search as often as they do for google Shopping this may take a while to filter through.
We really are listening to what our customers have to say online, instore, and over the phone, we are seriously trying to tailor our site and search engine appearances accordingly.
Cheers
