Policy Disapproval

Policy Disapproval: “We had a ‘Guns & parts’ policy disapproval in GMC that we believe was triggered by knife products. We corrected the Google Product Category for all knife products to the appropriate Camping Tools & Knives taxonomy. The disapproval has not cleared yet. What’s the fastest path to get a manual review completed before BFCM traffic peaks?”

Hello Benjamin, thank you for another great question. Yes it’s very common to get this issue. I actually manage a client that sells Norwegian knives and it’s a hassle all the time.

First I recommend removing the word knife from both the title and descriptions in the data feed.

Once you have done that, request a review for those specific products, in some cases you can request it for all products (not always the case).
