Previously Somacon's Data Feed Service at froogle.somacon.com
Get your products listed in Google Product Search (a.k.a. Froogle/Google Base)! Listing in Google Product Search (previously known as Froogle) can increase traffic to your store and drive sales. Google's merchant program is free, all you need to do is submit your product data feed to them. With our free trial, you can be sure your products get listed before having to pay a dime.
Some other services sell expensive software or monthly feed service. Why pay more? Our automated feed service charges a small fee per submission of unlimited products in one store, and a low, monthly account maintenance fee. Our system automatically detects your store's publication date, and only submits when your store is republished, saving you even more.
Don't waste your time maintaining code or software. We can take care of all the back-end work for you. Our service automatically downloads and processes the objinfo.xml XML data file exported by your Yahoo store or other e-commerce platform. All you have to do is obtain a free Google Base account and enter your store information into our system.
Also available: Shopping.com Data Feed for Yahoo Stores
You can set up alerts to notify you by email when searches in Google Base return a certain number of results. You can use an alert to notify you if the product count of your store goes below a certain threshold, so that you know when there is an issue with your listings. Another use would be to monitor result counts for particular products, as a method of competitive analysis.
Your site is excellent. It's very easy to follow and it addresses everything
I can think of. I like the questions and answers especially.

I love your service. I just signed up and within minutes your site had
all my products online! I used to spend hours formatting my feed for
Froogle in a spreadsheet. Thanks so much!
James McNeill, Owner, www.NepaliShop.com, August, 2006
I just wanted to write to say thank you. This is an amazing service. I
don't know what I would have done if you did not provide the Yahoo
Store to Froogle conversion service. It's an amazing deal.
Carlos Schweinfurth, VP of Marketing, www.Libertees.com, October, 2006
Compared to the competition, our service is less costly and easier to use.

Our system will work with any e-commerce platform that can produce an XML file according to Yahoo Store XML specifications. Companies on the Yahoo Store platform can enable this export file simply by checking a box in their store manager. For companies using other e-commerce platforms, you can make this XML file manually or via a script.
We can work with you to develop an automated data export from your store platform, so that it can be connected to our system. Some examples of platforms include, Monster Commerce, Miva Shopping Cart, PHP Shop, X-Cart, CNet, StoreHost, ECommerce Templates, and 68 Designs. We are also investigating automated connections with Amazon.com z-shops, eBay Store, PriceGrabber, Shopzilla, Commission Junction, Shareasale, Linkshare, and others. Please contact us if you have interest.
