Does anyone have experience with outcomes on listing your products under grouped search results as opposed to separated out. It seems that this can be easily accomplished by using a SKU that is different then others in the listing but I wonder if one ranks better over the other (it appears that grouped searched rank a bit higher). It seems that it would be best to take into consideration the audience you are targeting and what their habits are, i.e. would they be more likely to click on the group searches and look for products that way or do they want to find a reputable brand and would more likely click on that. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated as I am not really finding any information on this subject.

Thanks for the input. In this particular case, the pricing is not an issue as the client has a MAP policy in place so they will actually have a lower or exact match price to their dealers. The issue is more about the best place for them to be visible and not so much about them selling products through the marketplace.

Yea I agree. I have performed many searches on Google shopping and grouped listings seem to perform substantially better than individual listings.
However, that sucks because you don't want to list your products right next to your competition's if you don't want to right? Well the easy work around IMO is to amazon.com. Create a unique SKU and list that on your Google base feed as one of your unique identifiers. Also upload your product inventory to Amazon using this same SKU. Alter these product's prices in relation to your commission you are forced to pay amazon. In a head to head comparison (like what customers will see on Google shopping) it will drive customers to your store instead of Amazon. Using this method you will have all the benefits of a grouped listing, but none of the disadvantages. Plus, the sheer amount of ratings Amazon has will result in them pulling up your listing compared to others. Essentially you are paying amazon a small set fee in order for their help in Google Shopping results. I have used this strategy in the past for products that don't come from the manufacturer with a UPC, and it has worked for me.
Good luck!

How long does it take Google to remove links after using disavow tool?
Hi guys, So we're currently in the process of removing some of the less useful and more suspect links from our profile, and used the Google disavow tool to do so. We uploaded the .txt file to the search console on 7th July this year, 2 months ago now, and according to our most recent site crawl, the suspect links are still showing up on our link profile. Do we have any idea how long this is roughly supposed to take? The ideas I've found online are conflicting - anything from 3-4 weeks to 6-9 months. Which is it? Is there any way of fast-tracking this process? Thanks!

Sponsored posts against Google guidelines?
I'm a bit confused. Every blog I try to outreach on always give me a quote for a sponsored post. Isn't this against Google guidelines because you paying for a link technically even though your paying for a post? Do you guys buy sponsored posts? Should this be avoided? How do you outreach to a blog that offers sponsored posts? They can smell that you want a link from a mile away and give you a nice fat quote.

How does Google treat multiple backlinks on the same page?
Hello mozCrew Just a quick yay or nay. We have an embeddable code on our site for customers who want to post our link on their website listed here: http://www.accupos.com/etc/embed-code-restaurants.php But in our link, there are actually 2 separate links, one branding link that says the name of our company, AccuPOS, and another link which targets a specific target keyword "Restaurant POS Software". My question is, does Google only give credit for the branding link, since it is listed FIRST? Or will we get double credit? Is this a good or bad practice, and what would you recommend? Thank you!
