This has been going on for a month. I can give more detailed information if needed. I’m really hoping somebody can help me with this as I can’t figure out a solution.

Avoid sharing your website on the community, you will get spam from people trying to sell you something.

Hello, i also have my account suspended due to a misrepresentation issue. : “During the review you requested on Jan 28, 2025, Google found this still to be an issue. Before you request another review, make sure you meet the requirements.”

I have gone through the checklist and corrected everything i could. Could you please review my site also - www.auraliving.biz. Just need a second pair of eyes to review before i request for a Google review.

Also in the merchant center, i have setup the shipping and return policy, but in store quality settings , it still shows the policies as incomplete. Any help would be much appreciated.

As you shared your website URL, expect spam trying to sell you something.

As to your website, please note, checking everything is a big task, so that is not something I can do.

But for example add your business details in the footer of all pages.

The above is just an example, and you should check all the links above, and compare them against your website, business, data feed and google merchant center account.

Thank you very much for the response. You mentioned to add business details in the footer of all pages. It is present in the Contact Information link, which is present in the footer of all pages as far i could check. Should i

  1. Create a separate link for business details or

  2. Mention it along with the store name in the footer (my worry is that will become too long) ?

mention in the footer your business name, address, email, phone, business hours.

Done, Thank you !
