This was just announced,
Google today announced it’s partnering with Shopify, giving the e-commerce platform’s more than 1.7 million merchants the ability to reach consumers through Google Search and its other services. The integration will allow merchants to sign up in just a few clicks to have their products appear across Google’s 1 billion “shopping journeys” that take place every day through Search, Maps, Images, Lens and YouTube.
What can we do as Ablecommerce customers to combat this? Any input would be helpful.

Hi there,

Please utilize the Google shopping feed which has been a feature in AbleCommerce forever along with the rich snippets built into AbleCommerce. This is nothing new, Google is just having trouble competing with others in the shopping feed area and is going BACK to a mostly free offering.

Thank you for your support!

Thanks Mike. Why the big announcement today. Could Shopify folks not do this on their platform?
