Have Google Shopping show site listings instead of Amazon and eBay listings
-
An e-commerce site I'm currently working with also has storefronts on eBay and Amazon. When searching Google Shopping, their Amazon and eBay product listings come up but NOT their primary site's listings.
Can anyone shed some light on how to a) feed the main site's products to Google Shopping and subsequently b) have Google remove the eBay and Amazon listings?
Obviously, this would be a boon to business and hey wouldn't have to pay the Amazon and eBay fees associated with each sale.
Thanks for any help!

Hi Carl,
Are you using the same information in your feeds that are being sent to Google, Amazon, and Ebay? If not, that could be a reason your Amazon & Ebay listings are outranking your primary site’s listings.
If you are sending the same information, the reason may be because you need to increase your product bids. Products in a very competitive category with low bids will have a very hard time gaining exposure because they’re ranked so low. Try increasing your product bids until you start seeing your primary site’s listings outrank the Amazon & Ebay listings or rank beside them in the SERPs.
Regarding your second question, you actually don’t want to remove any listings from the Amazon and Ebay store fronts. Removing the listings will only decrease the amount of coverage you’ll receive on the SERPs and lower your traffic. If you keep the listings on Amazon & Ebay, you’ll have three times the coverage (the Amazon listing, Ebay listing, and your primary site’s listing). Yes, you’ll be paying Amazon and Ebay the costs associated with those clicks, but you’ll still have an ROI that’s better than no ROI at all.
Also, your account could be under a random review. We’ve been seeing this happen to various accounts in the past few weeks. You can read more about it here.
Hope this clarifies some things!

Show Unique User Goal Completions in Analytics Instead of Totals
Hello Everyone, Currently within Google Analytics, I have a mostly unfiltered view and several goals setup. One of my goals is tracking the download of an eBook (setup to track visits to the 'success' page of the download). At the moment (as I understand it), that tracks "TOTAL" goal completions. So, if the same user/person downloads the eBook twice, I will see 2 goal completions. What I'm trying to figure out is how to generate a report or view or something that tells me how many "unique" users have downloaded the eBook. Is this possible to do? And, can I do it using past data or do I have to setup a new filter that would only track unique users going forward? Thanks in advance.

Facebook Shops Stats
Has anybody used a Facebook Shop for ecommerce? Had a client get contacted by a company pitching that to them the other day, and the most recent research I've been able to dig up about it is from way back in 2012. Just wondering if it's worth looking into. Thanks!

There are They have asked for a site build but my question is Is there a benefit to writing unique copy for this one product on each micro site/sales page and focus on a particular keyword, with an email capture for lead generation and also a link back to the main site. Buy domains with targeted keywords in them : www.workplacepensions.co.uk www.auto-opt-in-pensions.co.uk etc? Thoughts please as it will change my proposal 😉

Site Redesign - 2 Target Audiences?
Hey everyone, we are planning a redesign on our website (we have been planning it since Fall last year, but got very busy in the Winter), and some new content / design questions have arisen. Right now, we are a "digital media" agency, and we offer video, design, and marketing services. So we do web videos, motion graphics, websites, seo, really a little bit of everything except for 3d modeling. What we are really trying to sell is the combination of these services (we may create a web video and redesign a groups website, then manage their adwords and marketing campaigns) and become our audiences "Go To" digital media agency. We were toying with the idea of giving visitors the option of picking from one target audience or another when they arrived at the home page, and their experience would be customized to best fit the needs of that particular audience from there on out. For example, on our homepage we were thinking of display our overview and value proposition (which would be the same, no matter which target audience group you were a member of), then asking if the visitor was a "Small Business Owner looking for guidance" or a "Marketing Director looking for outsourcing partners", then based on what option they chose, they'd be directed to a corresponding landing page optimized for converting this audience. We were worrying this may drop our domain or page authority for our home page, since these aren't really keywords that we'd normally be trying to rank for. We understand that it is ideal to have 1 "niche" target audience, but we found that we heavily service both audiences. Any help or suggestions are appreciated, thanks!
