Why is Google products dominating serps now?

Guys,

I have just noticed that Google products are dominating the vast majority of hugh paying shopping terms.... E.g. type in 'widescreen tv' or anything else you care to think of.....Google products is near the top comparing prices.

This is a major spanner in the works for some of my sites.

Anyone else in the same boat or have any suggestions on this point.

Google has totally fu%^ed me over here.

I have some well structured comparison websites with just as low prices, but am scared people will opt for Google products over my sites....Thoughts?

 

they may be getting huge income from that

 

Google probably adjusted their algorithm to have their products appear at the
top in the serps.

 

Why would they not put their products at the top? They make money

 

They know their algorithm unlike us. We guess it, they know it. It may be bad for them with adsense. I think they're crossing the line with this one.

They need to remember where they make all their money. Practicing things like this could be their downfall - greed

 

They opened that service bcz they want to make big money. And they will try to do that.

 

Huge income they generate. They are completely different in any sort of approaches and name it - "googlism" and generate more and more revenue.

How can you say like it, all the google having good ranking and thats why in the top. Can see some time Google itself PR9 so I never think google itself doing something on their algo to boost their product

 

You have absolutely no clue what you are talking about, for a start Google.com has a PR10.

Secondly these are not part of SERP's or rankings, they have been manually put at the top of the SERP's like Adsense as a "Feature" above the 10 regular results.

 

It's all about the money. Google promotes those Google Shopping (products) stores above others because those sites accept Google Checkout. Cha Ching

 

Google is really messing with my nerves: they are doing lot's of unusual stuff last weeks. NOT a SE anymore, just a company monopolizing everything.

 

Can't agree more, however it's their search engine and they are able to do what ever they want to do

 

Do no Evil?

 

Can you show me an example?

 

The one he provided above

 

I think that most of these merchant sites are not SEO friendly enough to be index high in the search volumes. There is niche sites that is optimized to Google webmaster standards and they out rank the product searches because they have a lot of unique content on them, I don’t think it is wise to use merchant sites that is used by thousands rather pay a programmer to create your own platform.
