Google Merchant Data Feeds was created by Troy Whatcott
I would like to suggest making a function where shop items can be exported into a Google-ready data feed for Google Merchant Center. My past store had one and it made it very easy to upload feeds.

Hello Troy,
Can you give me an example or show me the more details on this feature? Sound like it is a great feature and I should consider to have a look at it.
Sincerely, Giang

Google requires specific fields be populated to submit a feed to Merchant center in a tab-delimited CSV/TXT file. Very similar to the product export you provide, but in their own format. See their topic here

Would be a huge help for SEO in EShop

!

Thanks!

This is a feature that I would also find very useful. Maybe it could be made to produce a (Data Feed URL) as this would then be grate for dynamic updates of the XML feed. Also you would not need to export your updates to a CSV file every time a change is made to your products.

Hey Giang,

Is there any update on this?

I require to make feeds as well for Google Adwords but also other product comparism websites. They all require csv feeds similar to Google Adwords.

Usually you need to provide things like: Manufacturer, product name, deeplink, price, shipping cost, stock status and aa few more. You already have export option which is nice but it exports all data so you need to remove a lot. Maybe an option so you can choose what data categories are exported?

And also as said before an extra option to setup a cronjob or something to automatically run feeds would be very handy.
