Selling apparel products on Google Shopping requires extra attributes compared to standard non apparel products. In this article I will cover what the requirements are.

When you are selling apparel products you have two main categories. One where you have a single product and one where you have variants.

Tips

  1. If you submit variants having unique links allows the customer to see instantly what they have chosen. Google allows you to have one landing page for variants. To increase conversion rate I recommend having each of your variants a unique URL to allow these products to be pre selected. Meaning that if I select a blue T-shirt that I don’t have to select it again on the website.
  2. Keep the title of each variant the same allow the only variation to be the color, material, pattern etc…
