Froogle vs. Yahoo Shopping

    Is anyone listed in both Froogle and Yahoo Shopping. If so does the traffic generated from each seem pretty similar or is one far better than the other?

    I thought that you had to pay to get listed in Yahoo shopping. With Froogle you don't so if you have to pay for Yahoo shopping then Froogle would be the best to try out. If you are having a good amount of sales for a little amount of clicks then you could always try Yahoo shopping aswell for some extra exposure.

    Thats right, with Yahoo shopping you have to pay with Froogle you dont. We have had success with Froogle. Never tried Yahoo because of the fees. Highly recommend Froogle though.

    I guess the cheaper you sell your products the better you may do in Froogle and other shopping price comparison sites. This is because people use them to find the cheapest prices for products. If yours is cheaper than all of the other merchants same products or quite alot cheaper then they may purchase yours instead of another merchants product.

    I've used both, and shopping.com- with the paid shopping engines, you have to be very careful to only list the products that you get ROI on, because the CPC is so high. Anything from froogle is gravy.

    Thanks for the comments. I've tried Yahoo shopping and my ROI is ok but I get virtually no traffic from froogle.

    Has anyone tried PriceGrabber? Thoughts, opinions?

    Is getting listed on Froogle as simple as uploading a bulk file of products to Google Base?

    Now you also have to add the new Windows Live Shopping.

    Price grabber has been good for us, with an ok ROI and quality leads. The tracking was good too, unlike Kelkoo UK.
