What are you talking about?? I've never heard of anything about 'Google Base' before. Mind providing a reference link?
I had a chance to learn about google base today. But I think google base is no longer popular and many people are using Google Merchant center. Here is the link: http://www.google.com/merchants. You can upload product data feeds here, in this way, people can search you through http://www.google.com/prdhp?hl=en&tab=wf. I think this will help SEO since it will increase your product exposure rate.
hi sydzapp, u did nt hear about google base?..or google marchent center?... please search google base in google, i think u can get the knowledge about that...
thank u seonewbie2010 , but my site is related to services..and how i add the data feed..?i didnt understand that..means we can creat the xml file about our services rit? for feed.and upload in the data feed..i just visit the account but wher we placed the file?
If your services is product base, then simply sign up google base, then add your products with price, it is helps to you.
I used it when it was Google Base and still using as a Google Merchant Center. It's really good tool for retail online business, but not so effective for services as I can see.
Google base is how you get your product entries to show up under "Shopping Results" at Google like here. As others have said, this is useful if you sell products online. If your company is a services based company and operate in local areas then you should be looking at getting a local business listing so that you show up in the "Local Business Results" like here.
It's easy enough to get products listed but you do need to be a real e-commerce store. Google account > products > add feeds > wait I'm now getting visitors from the products section in organic search when my site isn't listed organically for that term. In my experience it's worth investing in the time to work it out. In terms of making the product feeds, it's just xml and google provide all the data you need to make one up. A couple of things, you can list up to one million products split between ten feeds, feeds can be a URL which you can tell Google to access on a regular basis or you can FTP them up to Google. Loads of options but well worth it. I'm now in the process of working out which million of nearly five million products to add to the maps...... Fun eh?
