ProductMash: Googlebase, what should I use instead of (the now redundant) labels?
Googlebase now gets its search terms from specific product details, for example, brand, isbn, product_type. However, they also search for words in your product description and title. The previously defined Labels, which were used as search terms are ignored.
You can add various search terms to all of your product descriptions by using the following approach:
Define the description field to be !!Description!! - {a suitable search term list as a phrase), where {a suitable search term list as a phrase) is the text to change to use words specific to your shop. For example, !!Description!! - We also provide radiators, trampolines, cars, shoes.
This is shown below:
When your Googlebase descriptions are created the extra text is added onto the end of the existing description.
