Asking again about google feed

Ok-still no luck with my Google feed updating. I’ve “edited” the items (daily), I’ve removed items from my booth and updated it-and still, the Google feed doesn’t update. I contacted tech support, who told me to add a credit/debit card to my bonanza account and NADA. Still no Google feed update. What’s going on??? Does Bonanza no longer do it? It’s not updated since 04/23/2014. Is this just some way to get you to sign up for the advertizing? I don’t have the funds to do that.

I don’t understand. Can someone please help?

Your advertising is currently set to “Disabled.” Once you go to your advertising page and enable it, then your Google Feed will update.

I know I didn’t disable it. But thanks for the info-I appreciate it.

First off, google only accepts paid advertising now…so you will have to sign up for at least the the 6% to submit items to google shopping.

Second you only pay the advertising fee if your items is sold through an advertising click. It is usually less than the percentage

Meaning that whatever percentage you sign up for.. you will only pay up to that amount in the Final Value Fee…so if you sign up for 6% and your item sells because of a advertising click, then the maximum you will pay in FVF is 6%. Usually the fees will run from 3.5-6%. If the item sells from some other link and has no advertising clicks then the fee will still be the basic 3.5%.

If bonanza was submitting before, that means they were paying your google advertising..and they do pay for a limited number of advertising clicks but they won’t pay for all of them

Please note, that google stopped accepting non paying feeds about 2 years ago, so bonanza has been carrying yours for quite some time

Thank you for explaining it. I honestly had no idea (I’d been on Bonanza from the beginning).
