My products nor the shopify store itself show up when typing them into the google search bar.
I have waited 4 weeks now changing something up every week that I think might make the difference.
As far as I can tell I set up everything correctly in shopify and google merchant center.
All my products are shown as active in both applications.
All the products are approved.
Everything regarding my shopify/gmc account seems to be fine.
I’ve watched a few videos and read a few forum posts and tried most of the solutions but nothing seemed to work.
Is there anything that I could have missed or forgotten to do that prevents my products from showing up in google search?
Topic summary
A Shopify store owner reports that their products and store are not appearing in Google search results after 4 weeks of troubleshooting. They have confirmed that:
- All products are active and approved in both Shopify and Google Merchant Center
- Both accounts appear to be properly configured
- Various suggested solutions from videos and forums have been attempted without success
One responder asks for clarification on whether the issue concerns free listings or paid ads. Another suggests the likely missing step: connecting the store to Google Search Console (separate from Google Merchant Center). The recommended solution includes:
- Adding the website property to Google Search Console
- Submitting the store’s sitemap to Google
- Initiating page indexing to enable products to appear in search results
The discussion remains open, awaiting confirmation from the store owner about whether Google Search Console has been set up.
Are you talking about free listings, or paid ads?
Hi @Fazliamin40
May I know have you connected store to Google Search Console apart from setting up in Google Merchant Center? If not, I suggest you connect to Google Search Console in time, and there you can submit store sitemap to Google and start page indexing, so that you can see product pages in Google Search Results. I have attached the related URLs here below about how to connect Google Search Console and the way to submit sitemap. You can take a look and follow the guidelines properly. Thank you!
