    Hello All,

    I am working on online portal having huge list of products.
    I read that google base submission is helpful in promoting the products.
    But manual submission for hundreds for products is a big task.
    Is there any automated way for google submissions?

    Please help.

    Thanks

    Yes, you can set up a data feed. This is a slog to do initially, time-consuming, but once done, it is easy to make changes eg in price etc. You can find all the necessary info for data feeds on the Google Base pages at http://base.google.co.uk/support/bin/answer.py?answer=73932&ctx=sibling

    You create the data feed either in XML or a spreadsheet, using the recommended data fields (you can add customised data fields too), and then submit the feed. It is live for 30 days.

    Then you can tell Google Base where to find your data feed for automatic upload when the 30 days is up. So, put it on your server in a separate folder and point Google Base to it and it will automatically fetch the latest feed for you.
